Hello Jrhau, it all depends on whether you have a good CHARMM
topology/parameter set for those nucleic acids.

If not, NAMD implements other force fields, such as e.g. AMBER, which has
been used often for nucleic acids.

Lastly, post your questions regarding NAMD to its mailing list (this is the
one for VMD).
