Hi,

Thank you for your comment,

My molecule doesn't have CMap terms but when I used ParmEd as


gmx_top = pmd.load_file('topol.top',xyz='/confout.gro')
gmx_top.save('DAV.top', format='amber')
gmx_top.save('DAV.crd', format='rst7')

the FLAG_AMBER_ATOM_TYPE express and only reads atoms types with 4characters as Robin mention before. So there is any recommendation to solve this problem, maybe using gromber o creating charmm files and then use chamber ?


Thank you for your time and consideration.

Best,
David

Hi David,

Paramfit will work with the CHARMM force field as long as your molecule
doesn't contain any CMAP terms. For small molecules, this shouldn't be an
issue and the energy calculation should come out the same. I've used
Paramfit without a problem for CHARMM files.
Be careful with atom names though-- CHARMM will have 6-character atom names
and AMBER/paramfit expects 4. If you create your prmtop with ParmEd's
chamber functionality this will be handled for you.

Best,
Robin
