For (i) you can use antechamber from AmberTools. Your step (ii) is
unnecessary. MMPBSA.py understands DCD files natively.
Also, if you've used the CHARMM force field and created the PSF file with
VMD, the upcoming release of AmberTools 14 (within a week) will have a
version of "chamber" that can convert VMD-generated PSF files into topology
files MMPBSA.py can understand.
Hope this helps,
Jason
