Molywood, the popular tool for producing molecular movies, is now fully integrated in VMD 2.0 (Linux and macOS releases). The new Molywood plugin gives VMD users the ability to create advanced videos directly within VMD, eliminating the need for external scripting. Users can easily combine dynamic highlighting of different molecular regions, dynamic plots, trajectory animations, and smooth camera transitions. The visualization capabilities of Molywood are documented through its library of samples and a growing list of video tutorials. The integration of Molywood in VMD 2.0 greatly facilitates creation of publication-quality molecular animations, allowing researchers to focus on scientific storytelling rather than technical implementations. The tool supports the full spectrum of molecular visualization needs, from simple trajectory playback to sophisticated multi-panel presentations. Advanced users of Molywood can customize and automate comparative analysis of trajectories and ensembles.
