Downloading Swiss-PdbViewer
Macintosh (PowerMac)
Required hardware:
- Power Mac (Mac68K are no longer supported)
- 256 colors monitor
- Extended Keyboard highly recommended
- An OSX version (carbonized) is currently available as
alpha version.
It lifts the 256 colors limitation but only runs correctly if the screen depth
is set to thousands of colors
Installation
Procedure
- Download Quickdraw3D
and install it (if it is not yet present on your system). This step
is optional, but will allow you to render nice images. This is only supported
for versions up to 3.6. Version 3.7 supports openGL only, as QuickDraw3D is no longer futher developed.
- Download Swiss-PdbViewer
v3.7
Previous versions:
Download Swiss-PdbViewer
v3.7(b2) (stable Beta version)
Swiss-PdbViewer v3.5 (903Kb)
Beta version 3.6b2 for QuickDraw3D
(940Kb)
Beta version 3.6b2 for
OpenGL (950Kb)
- Download Swiss-PdbViewer Loop
Database (3.44Mb). This step is useful if you intend to do standalone
modelling, of for teaching purposes. If you have a program that can
expand .zip files, you can download
the .zip version which is "only" 2.45Mb. To
be able to use the loop database, put it into the Swiss-PdbViewer "_stuff_"
folder.
- Download pdf User
Guide (for v.3.7) (2Mb).
- Download html User Guide v3.0

from a computer not connected to the network. To
be able to consult the help directly from within Swiss-PdbViewer, place
the content of this folder
into the Swiss-PdbViewer "_stuff_" folder.
- Download tutorial Material (512Kb).
This step is useful to learn how to use spdbv by looking at real examples.
- Download Pov-Ray this
step is useful only if you intend to make ray-traced images from your
molecules.
Note: If your browser starts to display
a lot of text instead of prompting you where to save the program, click
on the link during about 2 seconds until a pop-up menu appears. Then choose
the option "save link as..." and be sure that "source is displayed in
the pop-up, not "text". Then drag the file onto Stuffit Expander.
