[gmx-users] Box of water

[Dallas Warren]

Easiest solution can think of, make box that is of sufficient size the when filled contains 846 waters, fill with waters, use editconf to scale the box size to that which you require, run EM to get the waters back to the dimensions they should be.

Thanks,

I tried to add -maxsol 846 to the command and got the box with 846 water molecules. However, when I use VMD to visualize the box, these molecules concentrate on 1/3 the box space. I do need the molecules to spread out whole box.

Cheers,
Cuong

Dear Gromacs Users,

I used the command "genbox -cs spc216.gro -o box1.g96 -p topol.top -box 3 3 10"
to create box of 3010 water molecules. However, now I need to create a same size
box with only 846 water molecules. Please help me to do this.

Use the -maxsol option when invoking genbox.
