It depends upon which type of surface is generated -- sasurface and solvent
specifically do ignore water. The others (vdw, moleular) do not. I'll note
that.

Just use "solvent" instead of "molecular" -- no need to change files!

Not planning to change any defaults.

should work -- works for me...

Check the data range, which is reported when you do the default mapping. The
default for MEP is just -0.1 to 0.1. Your values are probably all > 1.

isosurface vdw map color range -1 1 mep

for examples.

just that range problem  -- you haven't set a decent range.

right - but it's not a MEP. Just charges.

you need also before MEP or PROPERTY:

colorscheme "rwb"

or

colorscheme "bwr"

or after the isosurface command, you need

color isosurface "bwr"

or

color isosurface "bwr" range 5.0 10.0

or such.

must have been a trace of red in there somewhere.

just change your color scheme range to something like -0.5 to 0.41
