dear professor Pfeifer;
I can run my mod file and get some results, but when comes to the smoothed shocks and moments it warns that:

Estimation::mcmc: Posterior (dsge) IRFs...
Estimation::mcmc: Posterior IRFs, done!
??? Index exceeds matrix dimensions.

when running metropolis-hastings, the acceptance ratio goes from 44% to 0.12%, is it because of bad convergence? I do not know what seems to be the problem, could you help me~

best wishes

Regarding the crash, please try the unstable version. please report back if the problem persists.
The decrease in acceptance suggests a problem with mode-finding before estimation.

that does work, thanks Professor Pfeifer~
best respect~
