Tommi,

I have found that TEXTAL is very good at tracing maps of less than
stellar quality. It is optimized for low resolution maps, which is
where, in my experience, RESOLVE has difficulty. Is is available as a
stand-alone program or as part of the PHENIX package.

See

Ioerger, T. (2007). Bioinformatics 23, 375-377.
