If you use a coordinate file as input into a number of tools you'll likely get the same. As I said, it is a warning, not an error that needs fixing. It is up to you, as the user, to verify that the output of the program is what you want it to be. Issues related to measured density as you've been reporting are likely a consequence of bizarre atom names that Gromacs doesn't understand. You have to (correctly) do the math to find what the density should be.<br><br>-Justin<br><br>> Best Regards<br>> Sara<br>>

These numbers can deviate<br>> > from the correct mass and radius of the atom type.<br>> ><br>> <br>> The warning indicates that names may give misleading values for masses and van der Waals interactions. For instance, is "CA" an alpha-carbon, or calcium? In this context, the program reporting the error doesn't know. Since MARTINI uses lots of weird atom names for its structures, the program is warning you that the output may be incorrect, or perhaps it may not; hence why it is a warning and not an error.<br>> <br>> -Justin<br>> <br>> > I checked mailing list but I didn't find my answer!<br>> > Please help me.<br>> ><br>> > Best Regards<br>> ><br>> > Sara<br>> >
