Hi,
It sounds like you might have an old version.
The current melodic version is 3.15, which is part of FSL 5.0.10.
You can set the output type via the environment variable: FSLOUTPUTTYPE
which should be set to NIFTI_GZ if you want the .nii.gz format.
It is quite unusual that this is not set to give you this, so it might be worth checking
to see if this due to it being an old version or whether you have a clashing version being called (e.g. FreeSurfer distribute a version of FSL and you might be picking that one up by mistake). You can see what version is being used by doing:
which melodic
and seeing if it is from the same place as $FSLDIR.
All the best,
Mark

This is strange because in the stats folder, each of the zthresh maps for each component do appear to be correct and do show different components. I've run it with batches of fewer subjects with the same issue.
