Got it! Thanks for your reply!

Unfortunately, MR-SF- and SF- variants of TDDFT have not been explicitly supported yet.

Thanks Tian for the confirmation! Does it support MR-SF-TDDFT result? I tried to generate NTOs or natural orbitals but ended up with errors (please see below). I also attached the example output file (MRSF.zip).
Thank you for your help!

Dear Zander,

In fact TDA case is supported. Previously I didn't explicitly test compatibility with TDA, I just made a test, Multiwfn load the information correctly.

Best,

Tian

GAMESS TDA-DFT Support

Dear Tian,

I would like to generate NTOs of MR-SF-TDDFT from GAMESS. According to the GAMESS, this is only implemented in TDA approximation. However, the multiwfn manual states that the TDA from GAMESS is not supported. Will this be considered in multiwfn in near future? If not, I would try to implement the NTO for the GAMESS TDA result myself. Would you mind to share the reason or concern why GAMESS TDA was not supported by multiwfn?

Thanks,
Zander
