Thank you Justin. Do you know how to use the "define = -DUSE_OLD_C36" as shown on 
http://mackerell.umaryland.edu/charmm_ff.shtml#gromacs


I want to make sure the CHARMM36m is used instead of CHARMM36.

Dear Gromacs users,


In the pdb2gmx command, we are asked to select the force field to simulate our protein system. I am told that a99SB-disp and CHARMM36m are better force-field for the proteins. But both of them are not the default ones. Can I ask


1) What is the latest officical website to download them?
At this website,
http://www.gromacs.org/Downloads/User_contributions/Force_fields
I could not find a99SB-disp and CHARMM36m.


2) How to install them?
Is there a step-by-step instruction for the installation?


Thank you.


Yours sincerely
Cheng
