[Wannier] convergence problem

Hi !

I'm trying to obtain the wannier functions from a vasp-run and also from a
wien2k-run.
My first intent is to use as many wannier functions as bands, avoiding the
disentangle process.
Both cases (wien and vasp) the wannierization process reach a delta spread
of
10^(-5) and the spread is 1521 Ang^2.
Both cases I activate both, the "use_bloch_phases" and "guiding_centres"
flags.
 I try lowering the trial_step flag, but nothing change.

The system is FeMnAs in a orthorombic structure as shown in ref. Crys.
Growth.
Des. 13, 4279 (2013).

any ideas?, suggestion? any road map to follow in these cases?

I add the .win file created by vasp

Thanks in advance!!

# First part: generate the inputs for the wannierization process

# wannier90.amn, wannier90.mmn, and write some more data into
# this file (atomic positions, lattice vectors, k points)
