Chimera is a Hackintosh bootloader that merges the best features from various branches of Chameleon bootloader, into a new branch based on the latest Chameleon 2.0 RC5 trunk version. It is designed for maximum compatibility across platforms. As an extension to the molecular visualization application UCSF Chimera (Pettersen et al., 2004), we developed RRDistMaps, a tool to interactively compute and display distance maps for individual proteins and to compare the distance maps of pairs of similar proteins.
Version 1.13.1: - Updated CASTp fetch URL
- Serial-numbering option for saving very large PDB files
- Additional Tools menu to facilitate getting third-party plugins, notably the Tangram suite of molecular modeling tools from InsiliChem
- Rotamers (Structure Editing) - Dunbrack backbone-dependent rotamer library updated to 2010 version
Command Changes:
- swapaa - Dunbrack backbone-dependent rotamer library updated to 2010 version
- tile - label option adds 2D labels showing each tiled model's number and name
- write - serial-numbering option for saving very large PDB files
Chimera Tool Setup
Fixed:
- Modeller input preparation sometimes failed when the template chain contained a modified amino acid (a HETATM residue)
- Bogus 'file does not exist' dialog no longer appears
- MD Simulation's 'incompatible files' problem when restarting a trajectory computation
- Align Chain Sequences tool
- Problem with using rotamers of proline from the Dunbrack 2010 rotamer library
- Support independent rotation in Animation scenes
- Problem with mis-identified element types in new Amber trajectories
- H-bond-guided hydrogen addition was wrongly ignoring certain hydrogen bonds when structures were being treated in isolation
The problem is some branches have features that other branches don't have, and many new features are still not merged into the trunk. While this is an inevitable side-effect of rapid open-source development, it creates some confusion for new users. The result of multiple branches not only increases the difficulty of choosing which version of the bootloader to use, but makes it impossible to support certain hardware.
Chimera Tool Protein
To assist new users, MacMan started a project to merge the best features from the branches into a new branch based on the latest Chameleon 2.0 RC5 trunk version. He's also added some new capabilities and fixes to support the latest hardware.
Today we're announcing the results of that project, Chimera. This version consolidates the best features from all of the available sources for maximum compatibility across platforms. We've decided to use the name Chimera to differentiate the project from the Chameleon trunk. Our focus for Chimera going forward is to support current, new, and future hardware, not to add legacy support for older hardware.

This project will be maintained with full source available shortly. We have asked the Chameleon team to add Chimera as an official branch. In the meantime, we've set up a dedicated area in the tonymacx86 Forum for bug reporting and feature requests.
We've added Chimera to iBoot and MultiBeast as our default recommended bootloader. It contains all of the current features that were previously available in iBoot and MultiBeast along with these new capabilities. The updated versions are now available for download at tonymacx86.com/downloads.
This wouldn't have been possible without the Chameleon team, and especially Kabyl and valv for their hard work and effort. Stay tuned for updates!
