What do you mean you can not reproduce the results? You may need to read
carefully the small print about cut-off treatment etc. (and even so, not
everything is written and/or done such that it can be reproduced...).

By the way, OPLS has most of the atom types present for similar
molecules. It should be possible to modify your atom types to be
standard OPLS ones. That is what I would use as a starting point.
