That will generate parameters for the interactions listed in [pairs] that do not have corresponding [pairtypes]. FudgeLJ and [nonbond_params] are used in such generation, per other parts of 5.7. > Or am I completely wrong? > In my set up then, are 1-4 Coulombic interactions determined by the pair > list and fudge QQ? > If the contradiction you think exists is this one... > > On 02/08/11, *Gavin Melaugh * <gmelaug...@qub.ac.uk> wrote: > >> Hi Justin > >> > >> Again thanks for the reply.

The parameters for that output are taken from [pairtypes]. If gen-pairs=yes then the parameters are generated, else some warning/error occurs. The example in 5.7.1 has some more explanation about the use of the fudge parameters. Mark
