Hi Tom, Yes, you should be able to use Chimera File/Open... to open your IMOD surfaces (*.mod). Chimera only reads the binary ".mod" files not the ASCII ones. The IMOD files contain surfaces, not volume data. I think IMOD often uses the file suffix ".rec" for the volume data itself. I think "rec" stands for reconstruction and the actual format is MRC format. Tom
Hi all,
Is it possible to open IMOD model files in Chimera? I have used IMOD (with imodmesh) to generate a model of my structure and would now like to load this IMOD model file (.mod) as a volume into Chimera. Is that doable? Thanks a lot in advance and big cheers, Tom
