Re: Using a different potential with NAMD

Hi Alex,
As a quick approach, you could use the tabulated potentials feature (see http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/2.10/ug/node23.html#SECTION00082700000000000000).
Modifying the nonbonded code is comparatively a huge pain, and should be avoided if possible.
Best,
Peter
