Hmm - yes. For refmac the default scaling is: 2) Mask based bulk solvent correction. It is activated using the following keywords to build a mask based bulk solvent correction:
scale type simple solvent yes The solvent mask is generated with default parameters to mask the whole model : vdwprobe 1.2 ionprobe 0.8 rashrink 0.8 I am not sure whether the mask is built taking into account atoms with occ = 0.00 or not.. Will ask the experts. But what happens to scaling when you do an OMIT map? Scaling is often a problem, especially at limited resolution. I like to look at a plot of <Fobs> v <Fcalc> which you can find in REFMAC outputs if you know where to look, but often the scaling procedure is shrouded in mystery..
