please be more accurate.
do you mean some other water potential
or some completely different solvent?
there is no technical limitation to the method
to use a different solvent or a different water
potential, but you have to keep in mind that
will basically need a complete new force field
that has been parametrized with the new solvent.
existing force fields that NAMD can handle all
contain _effective_ pairwise potentials that
include solvation effects. using those parameters
with a different solvent will break the balance
between the solvent-solvent and solvent-solute
interactions. so you have to take this into account
when using a different solvent.
