The MM atoms are then kept at ther positions, while the QM atoms optimize. The QM/MM interaction was thus done in gaussian. I don't know about the latest gamess version, but for a simulatanous MM optimization, the complete MM machinery needs to be implemented in the qm program, which I was too much work at the time.

Since my understanding of this is fairly limited still I will pester you
with more questions.

What exactly do you mean with "while the QM atoms optimize"? Geometry
wise or what?
And what are the LJ parameters (the c6/c12 values?) and what are they
used for (in gaussian)?
