Yes, i studied and i understand,

So as you said,  I do not need to change rcoulomb and rvdw, is it true?



Change from what?  You should use the settings described in the paper unless 
there is newer evidence that the force field is equivalently (or more) effective 
using some different settings.

Have you read the article in which 45A3 was derived?  It spells out precisely 
what you need to do.
