Hi there This is maybe an old question. I want to ask a general procedure of generate topology file with gromo96 force field by Dundee Prodrg. Take SDS for an example, I want to use gromos96 G45a3 forcefield. After the file is generated by dundee, I compare the forcefield parameter of G45a3 with what Dundee output for(bond length, angle, dihedral, imp, potential). There are some differences (see below). While from papers author usually just mentioned that the file is generated by Prodrg without detailed information. According to Dundee website, the forcefield is gromos which is outdated. Should I change all the forcefield parameter by hand for any molecule I want to use with gromos ff. Or there is any shortcut I can try. I understand that charge calculated by prodrg is inaccurate. Additional question, would G53a6 is basically better than G45a3 for SDS?

And I didnot find the exact value on the blank parts in ff45a3 categories.
