Re: [PyMOL] Saving high resolution images

[Warren D. <wa...@de...>]

Eva,

You may be past the limit of what PyMOL can handle.  Regardless, the
64-bit Linux builds are the best at handling large-memory tasks.

Practice with something really simple:

fragment arg

as spheres

ray 6000,9000

Also, two more things I'd suggest for such a large image (in order to
cut down on RAM usage):

set antialias,0

set hash_max, 100

ray 6000,9000

Another thing you can do is render 3000,4500 and use Photoshop to
subsample.

Cheers,
Warren
