Hello, I know this has been a somewhat common problem. When trying to display the molecular surface on a protein (I want to color by hydrophobicity and surface charge) I get the error "Surface calculation failed, mscalc returned code 5." I have tried increasing the VDW radius by 0.5, and lowering probe radius, and turning off 'display disjoint surfaces.' So far I have not been able to display the surface. I have a colleague that has displayed the molecular surface for a viral capsid, so I would think that I should be able to do it for a protein. Is there anything else I can do? It would be really nice to create some hydrophobicity and surface charge images. Thanks in advance! -Hunter Hunter Brown Bassoonist, Contrabassoonist, Composer, Chemical Engineering Major University of New Mexico
