acpype -i ch3cn_210_single.pdb which generated an .itp and other interesting files. that's nice. (remember, i want to use gromacs with amber99sb force field and i downloaded 3 files from the amber site: ch3cn_210.pdb, frcmod.ch3cn,prep.ch3cn.have you ever seen their content?) 1) the charges do not match the ones listed in the prep.ch3cn file. shall i just change them by hand accordingly? 2) dummy atoms as listed in the prep.ch3cn are not present in the new .itp file. 3) the force constants seem totally different. shall i again just adjust them to the original file obtained from the amber site? is there another way of using acpype, with a proper args list, that i should use in this situation? i know, that's many questions, but is has to be done! > BTW, how did you get this message "cannot find template for residue > C3N in our library"? i got that message *within* the following output when running: >acpype -i ch3cn_210.pdb [...] Warning: cannot find template for residue C3N in our library.
