Dear Mohammad,
You could use R.E.D. Server Dev./PyRED at
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDServer-Development/
PyRED generates force field for molecular fragments and does not only
perform charge derivation.
See
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDServer-Development/news.php
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDServer-Development/Documentation/
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/Tutorial/Tutorial-4.php
Concerning a reasonable cocktail I would use a homogeneous system; For
proteins and modified amino-acid residues I would simply use the last
version of the Amber force field for... proteins.
