Hi,
I haven't been able to reproduce your problem. Here is my input (using
files that are part of the AmberTools cpptraj test suite):
parm tz2.truncoct.parm7
loadcrd tz2.truncoct.nc 1 1 Frame1
loadcrd tz2.truncoct.nc 1 1 Frame2
crdaction Frame2 translate x 1.0
crdout Frame1 shift.nc
crdout Frame2 shift.nc append
trajin shift.nc
rms first out rmsd.dat
go
rmsd.dat contains 0.0 for both frames, as expected. Without knowing how you
generated your trajectories or what input you are using I can only
speculate, but my guess is that you've maybe got some imaging going on with
your trajectory with PBC which is causing the translated frame to look
different than the first frame. If you would like, send me your topology
and trajectory files off-list and I will take a look at them.

A 6700 water system + some solute is not a very big system. Cpptraj should
theoretically be fine handling systems containing ~2 billion atoms (or up
to the size of your memory, whichever comes first).

You should update to the latest version which is 15 (that version doesn't
even have all the AT14 patches applied...)
