(Sweet) UnityMol README

Sweet UnityMol is a molecular viewer and prototyping platform for the Unity3D game engine with specific extensions for sugar molecules as described in a recent publication (Perez et al., Glycobiology 2014). It is developped by Marc Baaden's team in Paris based on previous work (Lv et al., 2013) and includes HyperBalls designed to visualize molecular structures using GPU graphics card capabilities based on shaders (GLSL or Cg). It can read Protein Data Bank (PDB) files, Cytoscape networks, OpenDX maps and Wavefront OBJ meshes.
All Sweet UnityMol functionality is integrated in more recent UnityMol releases.
