[gmx-users] forcefield parameter missing

Hi Mark,

The complete story was to add a manually capped residue for VAL and I named
it as VAT. NH2 capped was borrowed from NH2 in residue ASN. I hope to
borrow the parameters from ASN to VAT too but then the error comes.

To add the new residue VAT, I have included it in aminoacids.dat
(gromacs3.3.1), ffPACE_1.3.rtp and ffPACE_1.3.hdb. The atom types and names
are all borrowed from ASN. The forcefield implementation strictly requires
gromacs3.3.1 and I have to add the capping manually.

The output seems well. Most of them are of the same problem I mentioned
previously - failed to recognize the existing parameters. The first 8
errors are of this type.

checking input for internal consistency...
calling cpp...
processing topology...

Hopefully this adds a bit more clue.
