Balazs,
Great ! Thanks for the effort to compile .
To use the AMBER force field, it looks as if you need to compile older
CVS code (8 August 2009 works for sure) of namd2.7 or namd 2.6 .
Francesco,
So it seems that if the new CVS code is compiled against tcl8.4.19, the
RAMD scripts run with the CHARMM force field with no error message.
Could you confirm that as well ?
I also have a new version of the RAMD that is compatible with tcl8.3 ...
It seems that tcl8.3 does not like the "eq" operand and some if
statements with multiple tests ... Don't ask me why ...
other NAMD users,
Is there anybody that is able to run the new CVS code with AMBER
topology files ?
Greetings
Vlad
