To make a prmtop, you need gaff or amber atom types, for sure.

We think we have the problem fixed (i.e. you can set fastbld to "on", and load
and save dmp.pdb), with no "substr" messages. The fix will be incorporated
into version 1.1 of AmberTools, which will be announced soon. [There have
been lots of changes to sleap since version 1.0, so trying to provide
individual patches seems likely to cause more harm than good.]

Thanks again for reporting this...dac
