If your gamess output is a peptide you have change residue numbering,
atom types and residue types to fulfil PDB formating for proteins. For
expample:
ATOM 251 C UNK 1 17.227 31.138 18.388
will turn to
ATOM 251 CA ARG 33 17.227 31.138 18.388
if this is C-alpha atom of Arg33 etc.
If your gamess output is not peptide then use PRODRG.
