Hi Jim,
I tested replica exchange with Charmm27 force field. namd immediately shows error like (re.out):
errpipe 8: FATAL ERROR: UNKNOWN PARAMETER IN XPLOR PARAMETER FILE par_all27_prot_lipid.prm
errpipe 3: Reason: FATAL ERROR: UNKNOWN PARAMETER IN XPLOR PARAMETER FILE par_all27_prot_lipid.prm
errpipe 8: LINE=**>CHARMM22 All-Hydrogen Parameter File for Proteins and Lipids <<*
I am sure there is no error in my Charmm27 force field and the replica exchange scripts have not been modified. So the error showing above should be that Charmm27 force field could not be correctly read at the beginning of simulation, but I don't know why.
If I modify the forece field as the example did but without adding CMAP, namd will then report error when it can not find CMAP like (re2.out):
errpipe 6: ------------- Processor 0 Exiting: Called CmiAbort ------------
errpipe 6: Reason: FATAL ERROR: CAN'T FIND CROSSTERM PARAMETERS FOR C NH1 CT1 C NH1 CT1 C NH1
This is why I am asking how to put CMAP into the force field for replica exchange previously. I checked namd-l and found out that some people who used Charmm22 force filed directly also faced the similar problem that Charmm22 could not be correctly read but none reply was given at that time.
Could I know how force filed is read by namd?
Thank you very much,
Xiang

I generate a force field with the parameters of bond, angle, dihe, impr and nonbonded directly coming from Charmm27. But I do not know how to put CMAP parameters into this modified force field so it can be read correctly.

So could anyone with experience of REMD tell me how to add CMAP into the force field for REMD, or how to skip CMAP correction during simulation?
