.. tip:: The solvent model XML files included under the :file:`amber14/` directory
include both water *and* ions compatible with that water model, so if you
mistakenly specify :file:`tip3p.xml` instead of :file:`amber14/tip3p.xml`,
you run the risk of neglecting critical parameters for ions in your system.
you run the risk of having :class:`ForceField` throw an exception since
:file:`tip3p.xml` will be missing parameters for ions in your system.
The converted parameter sets come from the `AmberTools 17 release <http://ambermd.org/AmberTools17-get.html>`_
