Amber output pdb file - can't open... bad PDB record

Hi! I have a large system containing >100k atoms w/o water. Amber produced a pdb file, and I have a trajectory file for it. When I try to open the pdb in chimeraX, most of it loads but with warning "Ignoted bad PDB record on line xxx" and it's all for atom # > 9,999. As a result, when I try to open the .nc file along with the pdb file, the # of atoms don't match anymore.

Hi Alex, Amber certainly used to steal the 6th column of an ATOM record for an extra digit when handling > 99,999 atoms and ChimeraX accepts that treatment. Does Amber do something different now? What does the 100,000th ATOM record look like? --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab
