This is likely the problem:
http://amber.ch.ic.ac.uk/doc6/manual_updates.html
p. 262: NTWXM is now the minimum time for which coordinate snapshots will
be dumped, i.e. there will be no snapshots recorded for the first NTWXM
steps; after that, coordinates will be dumped every NTWX steps. Similarly
for NTWVM and NTWEM. The intent is that snapshots might not be needed
for an initial equilibration period.
you probably want to set ntwxm to 0.
(it's a silly change and a non-intuitive one)
