When using wrf simulation typhoon, there is no output ATCF typhoon path in rsl.out.0000

Wrf users:
Recently I am using wrf to simulate typhoon. I have recompiled wrf according to the official website's mentor manual. I chose dmpar+vortrx with the following options, but no matter how I modify the namelist, no ATCF appears in rsl.out.0000, but I The precipitation picture is a good reflection of the existence of eddy currents, I don't know which step is wrong, please help me!

Hi,
It looks like the print-out for ATCF is related to an NMM build of the model, and that dynamical core is no longer developed or supported. If you are running with ARW, then that is why you aren't getting a print-out. If it's with NMM, then hopefully someone else who uses that core successfully will be able to provide some insight. I'm sorry we aren't able to help.
