Do I need to compile Bader code into Vasp Code

[itando01]

Hello Masters

I am pretty new in VASP community, and i was hoping to perform some bader analysis on molecular adsorption on surfaces for electrochem reactions. The first question i have is as follow: In order to perform bader analysis do i need to compile the code into VASP code!? I am currently using VASP 5.4.

Thanks for all your help.

No, you can use it to post-process the charge density files that vasp writes.

Thanks for your reply. I appreciate all the help i can get.
Follow up question, from my readings i understand that in order to work properly i have to have both valence and core electrons, and need to set up: LAECHG tag in INCAR, is that a feature that is supported in Vasp 5.4?

Thanks again
