I guess you can do that while loading the pdb into vmd and save coordinates
as binpdb. Than of course use bincoordinates in the configuration file.

Betreff: Re: namd-l: memory-optimized version binary coordinates?
Yes, exactly. I need to generate that bin file. Similar to the compressed
psf which is triggered by "genCompressedPsf on". The wiki is a little
obscure as to how to generate the pdb file that appears to be needed.

I see, I don't know anything about compressed psf, so I can't help out with
that aspect.
What I don't understand from this is:
bincoordinates apoa1-out.coor
outname ./apoa1-out.coor
you realize that bincoordinates is the input? Your file seems a bit
cyclical.

I doubt that apoa1.pdb file is in binary, it is probably ASCII.
When you say "binaryoutput yes" you just mean that you want the
apoa1-out.coor file to be in binary rather than ASCII, but it doesn't affect
what you supply as the input for that run.
So, if you only have a PDB file for input, you should say "binaryoutput
yes", but then just have "coordinates apoa1.pdb". If you later want to use
the output from that run, then you will provide the new coordinates as:
"coordinates apoa1.pdb"
"bincoordinates apoa1-out.coor"
In this way the binary coordinates are used, but the ASCII coordinate file
is still required to assign the atoms or something of that sort, even though
the positions are ignored.

Aaron,
I used this option but when I run the mem optimized version I get this
error... Also, I did not see any difference in the apoa1.pdb file before
and after generating the compressed psf file.
Info: Running with 1 output processors (1 of them will output
simultaneously).

when you do a run, have:
binaryoutput yes
in the config file.
Then your coor, vel, and dcd files will be binary.

Hello,
Any information on how to obtain binary format representation for the
coordinates?
>From the NAMD wiki:
III. obtain a binary format representation of your coordinates. The
coordinate output file of a non memory optimized run would work. Or extract
the binary coordinates using VMD.
IV. replace "coordinates" with "bincoordinates" and replace the reference to
the pdb file with a file containing binary format coordinates.
Thanks
