Hi,
The dihedral value of same four atoms should be equal either you calculate
using colvars or VMD.
How much different the values are?
I am afraid, if you are measuring the dihedral of different atoms.
Can you double check the atoms?
Remember, the colvars atom numbers start with 1.
In VMD, serial starts with 1 and index starts with 0.
Hope it helps !!!
Thanks
Karteek
