What do you mean by directions? in your topology file you have to include the file martini_v2.1.itp as you would do for any other force field! On Feb 16, 2009, at 11:07 AM, bhf70 wrote: It is possible to set an example ? bhf70 wrote: Could you tell me, please. What's directions need the

Hi, You should be much more precise in describing your problems. gmxdump does not seem to give a segv at all. Also you did not mail me your Gromacs version. mdrun immediately gives a warning: Warning: 1-4 interaction between 1 and 28 at distance 0.982 which is larger than the 1-4 table size

OK, well I got this wrong. If you want to extend or continue a simulation that has completed, you still have to use tpbconv. It is used to change the number of steps, then you feed that into mdrun with the checkpoint file. The only time you don't need tpbconv now is with a crashed

One option is to avoid checkpoint files all together. I personally use a grompp/mdrun cycle of ~2h segments that was historically done in order to utilize the -sort -shuffle options to gromacs 3. I found it simpler to keep on doing the exact same thing in gromacs 4, even though I no longer
