Hi Paul, After loading the MTZ file, did any objects show up in the panel on the right? If PyMOL detects columns for 2fofc and/or fofc maps, and the file is named "foo.mtz", then you should get "foo.2fofc" and "foo.fofc" maps. Use one of these maps as the second argument to volume (or isomesh). If automatic column detection fails, use a loading option with manual column selection.
Summary of MTZ loading options: 1) Command line with column auto detection for 2fofc and fofc: load file.mtz 2) Command line with manual column selections: load_mtz file.mtz, mapname, FP, PHIC 3) GUI, opens MTZ import dialog: File > Open ... In each case you should get one or more map objects, which you can use with volume or isomesh in the next step to get a visualization.
