Dear all, I'm trying to write volumetric data in XPLOR format in order to import it into Chimera for displaying. The volumetric data set is a general volume data set, not necessarily an electron density map. However, it keeps on failing as Chimera keeps on thinking there are only 262 data values, whilst expecting 90601 numbers (which is the correct number). I'm trying to write the XPLOR file in the format given on the CNS web page: Format of CNS maps The grid size of the map is determined by the GRID parameter in the FFT statement. The following lines show the beginning of a typical electron density map file: 2 !NTITLE REMARKS FILENAME="" REMARKS DATE:18-Jun-98 12:24:08 created by user: 30 4 12 15 5 10 16 2 12 0.40960E+02 0.18650E+02 0.22520E+02 0.90000E+02 0.90770E+02 0.90000E+02 ZYX 0 -0.97086E+00-0.49927E+00-0.82774E+00-0.13491E+01-0.57034E+00-0.71253E-01 -0.19491E+00 0.61017E+00 0.10064E+01-0.22888E+01-0.94020E+00 0.77451E+00 0.57539E+00-0.31211E-01-0.27430E+00-0.36526E+00 0.34772E+00 0.81884E+00 -0.19954E+01-0.10117E+01 0.18038E+01 0.19008E+01 0.11886E+00-0.41646E+00 0.47560E-01 0.48855E+00 0.57606E+00-0.22320E+00-0.12787E+01 0.47590E+00 .... -9999 0.2044E-09 0.9999E+00 Is this correct or is Chimera expecting a different format? Looking forward to your replies!
