But in order to get the complete solvation free energy these calculations for the van der Waals and cavity terms have to be done. So does that mean that the solvation free energy calculated by default without specifying "sa_algorithm=Ace-approximation" is missing these terms?

I thought that the ACE-type approximation is done by default (due to the manual) when using GBSA.


I think it all depends on the version you're using. Ace-approximation became default in version 4.5.2 (I think). In previous versions, "no" was the default, at least such was the case in my testing of 4.5.1.

I think you have to set "sa_algorithm=Ace-approximation" for this calculation to
be done, and thus written.
