Thanks David,
If course I know I can use whatever set of parameters ... I was just wondering whether there is a reason specifically related to the OPC water model .... Because the ion parameters are water model specific but the OPC water model is loaded with J&C ions for a different water model whereas L&M ions are available for OPC ...
Best,
Vlad
