[gmx-users] Suggested settings for using Amber force field in Gromacs

Thanks a lot for your quick answer. 

I am trying to reproduce with Gromacs some results that I obtained with Amber software.
I put the same thermostat (Langevin) and barostat (Berendsen with isotropic scaling) with same time constant, the same dt, the same cutoff, and so on. 

I was wondering if there are some other settings concerning thermostat, barostat and long range interactions which should be changed in order to be consistent with Amber default.

Hi,

Your first stop should be the article describing the parametrisation of the force field. It might also be useful to look for articles that are doing something similar to what you want to do.
