Hi Thomas,
    I didn't realize that you were using Implicit solvent --- this is
something new
in NAMD (the theory is around for a long time but only very recently it was
added to NAMD). If you look at the VDW energy, they're actually very close ---
within round off errors. The only glaring difference is ELECT. I didn't check
the code yet but I'm almost certain that this difference is purely caused by aMD
reporting the wrong types of the electrostatic energy --- the PME term is not
calculated in implicit solvent simulation but this term is hard-coded into our
aMD energy reporting formula. I think I should have more time to check more
carefully this weekend and either solve the discrepancy or put a note on NAMD
manual.

    ps, before it's fixed, this would mean that aMDT (boosting total
potential) is
incompatible with implicit solvent simulation.
