Is the nstxtcout what specifiies it to generate xtc?
nsteps  = 2000  ; Maximum number of (minimization)

nstenergy   = 10; Write energies to disk every nstenergy steps
nstxtcout   = 10; Write coordinates to disk every
nstxtcout steps


Probably. See manual section 7.3.8


Do I need to use this -x flag?
mdrun -nice 0 -s em.tpr -x
No xtc was created though


-x is not a flag - it accepts a filename / filename prefix. Omitting it 
entirely will probably generate traj.xtc. Experiment and see.

Thats true. First you need to do the simulation 'mdrun' and then analyze the
trajectory (.xtc) and energy (.edr) files generated. It takes quite some
time to figure out the first step 'mdrun' :)

Re: [gmx-users] How to generate xvg files

2009-11-10 Thread Jack Shultz
I'm trying to get the xtc output. The mdp file has these parameters.
Is the nstxtcout what specifiies it to generate xtc?
nsteps  = 2000  ; Maximum number of (minimization)
steps to perform
nstenergy   = 10; Write energies to disk every nstenergy steps
nstxtcout   = 10; Write coordinates to disk every
nstxtcout steps

Do I need to use this -x flag?
mdrun -nice 0 -s em.tpr -x
No xtc was created though

An .xvg file is the output of an analysis tool, suitable for plotting using 
xmgrace, not some specific output of, i.e. mdrun.
