Dear Gigo: I've never used tip5p, but perhaps you could add some LJ terms to the opls_120 definition, do your minimization, then remove the fake LJ term on opls_120 and run your MD?
If that doesn't work, then you might be able to minimize your system using FLEXIBLE tip3p water and then use a script to convert the tip3p into tip5p. I expect that you can set 0,0,0 coordinates for each of the tip5p dummy atoms and that they will get correctly positioned in your first mdrun step with tip5p. Chris. -- original message -- Dear Mark, Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, TIP5P is completely rigid and the FLEXIBLE define will not change it. Any other ideas?
