ESP extreme wouldn't appear

I'm plotting ESP colored vdW surface with ESP extrema but it does not appear, when I set "ext" command i get the message "invalid command name "soource""

Re: ESP extreme wouldn't appear

That means you didn't properly modify vmd.rc file and then reboot VMD, or the ESPext.vmd script provided in Multiwfn package has not been moved to default folder of VMD program, therefore the content of the script was not activated when VMD boots up.

I did everything you did in the video.
What do you suggest to me?

Re: ESP extreme wouldn't appear

first of all I would like to thank you for your cooperation, I solve the problem, it's in the ext command line I just remove the additionnel "o" from "soource"
Best wishes.
