It needs to be in the amber99.ff directory to actually work, and you need to provide this force field's name in your g_x2top command, which unfortunately you have not posted.<br>> <br>> -Justin<br>> <br>> > Any help is much appreciated.<br>> ><br>> > Thanks,<br>> > Majid<br>> ><br>> <br>> -- ========================================<br>> <br>> Justin A.
