Actually, it didn't work with Modeller 9v4. ;) 9v4 would happily run with zero GB/SA radii, but this would result in infinite terms creeping into the scoring function, which would give unpredictable results. So in 9v5 an explicit check is made for sane radii.

That is exactly right - RSOL is the value that needs to be changed. But if we had a recommended value, it would be in there already. ;) I suggest you check in the literature and perhaps in other MM packages such as CHARMM.

Yes, this is true, because that's all we've used GB/SA for ourselves.
