Thanks everyone for the help. I tried many methods, but I realize I have
to have prep files in the same order for TI. Even I built the mol2, pdb
files with the same order for corresponding atoms, I still have different
prep files which cause the problem. Does anyone has the experience of
mapping one prep file to the other one with the same atoms in the order?
Thanks.
