The formula that TraPPE uses is 4E7/rij^12. with the transformation of 4E7in gromacs units (kJ*nm^12*mol-1) i take a numper 3.325789e-7 witch until now i put it in [pairs] with the sexond function like this:

This line doesn't seem to have enough fields (See table 5.4 of manual)

> the zeros i use is  for fudgeQQ because i dont want to have coulomb 14 in this pair and  charges of both of them for the same reason. it seem to work because at the end i have a coulombic energy 1-4 at a reasonable price but the total energy is not correct.

Construct a toy example (minimal single molecule in vacuo?) that will let you trouble-shoot what you are doing by computing by hand what the energy should be. Compare with GROMACS with and without this extra [pairs].

Be sure your combination rule paradigm is what you want it to be.

> please if someone can think smth answer me. The prices i get i can compare them with another researcher who did the same work with the use of monte  carlo. i am stucked for three months and i have read th manual over and and over again without result....
