Re: [AMBER] Problem to run sander with more than 60 atom types

I understand your point, but when we run a system with less than 69 atom
types in EVB (with 2 VB states), it works totally fine, even on 8
processors. That is why we thought it had to be an issue with having more
than 60 atom types.

Thanks,
