hi,
i am using a time step of 1fs. I am not solvating my protein - that's
the particular reason i didn't use a box. Increasing the cutoff just made
the 'global exclusion error' which was coming alongwith vanish but still
namd crashes after some odd 199 or some timesteps with the message: atoms
moving too fast. I also looked into the atoms which were cited as moving
fast and there wasn't anything peculiar in them.
Could it be that there is some 'wrong' generation done of my psf and pdb
files - but then the structures are similar and there is no error at the
first time step itself.
