Hi Phil, nice that you like our tool, so I prepared here something for you:

http://www.cellmicrocosmos.org/index.php/download/cm2-project-news

Interesting should be JCIM_Cm2_2_chapter_3_3.zip (Two membranes with proteins) and vesicle_meets_membrane__1_0merged_lipid_moved.zip (a vesicle). This structural bioinformatics tool is usually interesting for people creating initial structures for membrane simulations or who need a fast way to play around with different configuration settings for membranes.

Some videos about how to use the tool are here, in case you are interested:

Please keep in mind: do not use the atomic view for large membranes, not the visualization, the modeling is here the key feature. Use the Jmol button if you want to look at the whole atomic structure of large membranes.


Julien, I see your point and it is not a miracle that you gave up on Web start. I think it was ca. 3 years ago where I required ca. one week to follow all instructions of the badly-documented changes from Oracle to get Web Start working again - it was a horror ;-)

Our self-exectuables should run on all OS, tested also with Mac OS and Windows. Our overall license is GPL3. Yes, a number of other projects are included, so I prefer not to pack everything into a single jar:

But thanks for the idea with JNDT, I will have a look at it, could be a good option for the future.

So if the Phil's changes arrive in Java3D 1.7.X, I will test it!

Best, Bjorn
