Hello, I want to set the density of the box (e.g. set 1 g/ml for the water box). I use the density option in the editconf, then use the genbox to generate the box, but the result of the density is not what I setted. How can I do ?


The density of the box will be governed by how accurate the water model is in reproducing experimental values. As far as I know, there isn't a water model that gets density dead on. You could alter the box dimensions manually and use a constant-volume ensemble, but whether or not it's appropriate to make such a modification is questionable, since the water models are designed to reproduce certain values with certain accuracy.

I have another question, I don't find the tip3p.gro and spce.gro water model in the top file, only have the .itp document. if I want to generate the TIP3P water box, how can I do, or where can I get the tip3p.gro and spce.gro documents?


You don't need anything special, just coordinates for a 3-point water model and sufficient equilibration:
