Hi Hector,

Good. Another thing is when you do the angle force constant conversion, unit of the internal angle force constant in the Gaussian output file is Hartree/(rad^2) while in the GAFF unit of the angle force constant is kcal/(mol*rad^2), again an additional factor of 0.5 needs to be considered.

Kind regards,
Pengfei
