Technically, there is no reason why VOTCA would not work with the
MARTINI force-field, it is just a slightly different setup, where you
only iterate on some of the interaction.
However, MARTINI is a free-energy-based approach and hence combining
it with IBI, which is structure-based, seems a little bit odd.
