Dear Kleper, even though I haven't tested it in detail, I'm sure the errors come from the fact that ATOMS cannot handle site occupancies other than unity. If you have a look in the cif file, you can see that both W (0.23) and Ti (0.54) have a fractional occupancy: loop_ _atom_site_label _atom_site_type_symbol _atom_site_symmetry_multiplicity _atom_site_Wyckoff_symbol _atom_site_fract_x _atom_site_fract_y _atom_site_fract_z _atom_site_occupancy _atom_site_attached_hydrogens _atom_site_calc_flag W1 W4+ 4 e 0. 0. 0.0564(2) 0.23 0 d Ti1 Ti4+ 2 a 0. 0. 0. 0.54 0 d O1 O2- 4 f 0.3007(6) 0.3007(6) 0. 1. 0 d To get it working, you need to use the prototypical structure (e.g. TiO2) without mixed sites as ATOMS input. In the feff.inp file, you can then change 46 out of 100 Ti atoms to W (5 out of 10 should be ok as well for a smaller cluster). Don't forget to add the appropriate POTENTIALS line for W to the feff.inp. The small shift of the W atoms away from the Ti positions then could be handled by some additional delR parameter for the W paths during fitting.

Please,
Could someone help me with the cif file attached, get from the www.crystallographic.net shearch with the terms Ti, W, O. When I try to run the Feff the following message appears.

This warning indicates a problem in the Atoms list. For some reason you have atoms that are separated by than 0.93 Angstroms (or 1.75 Rydberg).
This may be due to the presence of hydrogen atoms in your feff.inp file, in which case this is an innocuous warning and may be ignored.
However, this may indicate a problem constructing the Atoms list. The most common cause of this problem is a mistake in the crystallographic data used on the Atoms page. You may have incorrect values for lattice constants or angles or incorrect values for site coordinates. You may need a shift vector to move the lattice into its standard setting.
Please be aware that Atoms works with 5 digits of precision. Thus, if you have a site with a coordinate of 1/3, you should use either "1/3" or "0.33333" on the Atoms page. Using insufficient precision, say "0.333" is a common cause of this error message.
Artemis has continued on the possibility that the warning is caused by hydrogen atoms, but be warned that the feff.inp may require your attention."
Thanks in advance.
