Hi Alex - You can also try reducing the value of `hash_max`<http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Hash_max> (e.g. `set hash_max, 50`). The default value is 130; a lower number reduces the memory PyMOL tries to obtain for ray tracing. The trace will take longer, but hopefully will get you through without crashing.

If I try to ray it, the pymol session crashes (perhaps too many molecules are open). Using png xxx.png, dpi=300 or dpi=600 command doesn't make any difference; the image is still kind of low resolution for A0 or A1. Any idea how I can generate this in pymol? (I am using the free version of pymol) Thank you in advance, Alex ------------------------------------------------------------ This email message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain information that is proprietary, confidential, and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
