I'm really happy with Chimera, but vexed that every attempt to export a high resolution mesh via the VRML utility ends in a python failure. Have not tried exporting molecular models, only isosurfaces with 250,000+ polygons. What I use instead for export is VMD, which has an .stl export option, providing smaller file sizes than VRML. VMD is buggy on my XP system, requiring several attempts to export correctly. I use Chimera to get my isosurface settings right, then plug these values into VMD. SUGGESTION: If you provided an OBJ mesh export option, nearly every 3d application could utilize the product. The Wavefront OBJ format is the defacto universal exchange format, fairly small file sizes, retaining textures. Should be easy for you geniuses to program. Also, the stereo camera option never "takes." The walleye and crosseye cameras work OK but not the straight stereo pair, which I have to compose from the right and left images. Would like to send the development team some work samples. How do I do that? Please reply to my email address, as I don't read the list.
