Hi Francois,
Thank you for the help so far. I have a few followup questions:
1) Do I need 4 orientations for the 2nd molecule, as it is very small?
2) I think it is the ordering of the molecules (which is 1st and which
is 2nd) that causes the error, because I had another terminal residue
fragment finish correctly, I think.
3) The attempt that finished correctly placed files in 3-directories
under a directory called "0Values", respectively directories Mol_m1,
Mol_m2 and Mol_MM2. Which of these directories contains my mol2 files
that I need to create the AMBER OFF library file?
4) Thank you for sending a link to the Leap tutorial for use of Mol2
files, I was very informative, but in it I fail to see where I go from
the Mol2 format to creating a .off file which I can then load in at a
later time. The last step of the tutorial is to save the information in
a .mol2 file, not a .off file. Did I miss something there?
Regards,
Jesper
