I can second the recommendation of the Mol* project.
Some of the data which is used for Olderado and Vivaldi is now part of the wwPDB validation report. This data is available from the PDBe API http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/api/doc/validation.html Additional data NMR validation data is planned to be added to the wwPDB validation report later this year. This data will be displayed in Mol* on PDBe webpages when Mol* is incorporated into our web pages.

But the good news is that plenty of alternatives exist, written in native (to the browser) javascript. Wikipedia has a nice compilation of the different viewers, under the "Web-based systems" section: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_molecular_graphics_systems I would particularly recommend the Mol* project: https://molstar.org/ Jose On Tue, 19 Mar 2019 at 10:37, Robbie Joosten <robbie_joos...@hotmail.com <mailto:robbie_joos...@hotmail.com> > wrote: Hi Nick, A bit of a hack I suppose, but you could use a (single use) VM with some old windows version that still works. E-mailing the developers directly is the way to go to figure out whether you can expect an update. We had a similar problem with our own webserver (the Crystallographic Construct Designer ccd.rhpc.nki.nl <http://ccd.rhpc.nki.nl> ) which was completely a java applet. The only real solution was a full rewrite. But that requires funding which we luckily got from the West-Life project. Keeping websites online is is not easy with changing technology and getting funding is hard because it is not new science.

Quite a number of very useful structural biology web sites (Olderado, Vivaldi, EMDB to name but a few) require java based viewers and hence no longer have full (or in the case of vivaldi any) functionality on up to date browsers. On a new computer it may prove hard or even impossible to find a browser that will work Are there plans to update these websites and is there any suggeted time scale? Any work rounds?
