The issue is that the element fields get filled with seemingly random X characters when the pdbqt file is read in.
Attached is a 10mer of a pdbqt protein file. Ligand pdbqt files are riddled with other non-standard keywords.

Hi,
If someone can send me a few of these .pdbqt files as examples,
I can probably add a molfile plugin that will read them so
that VMD 1.9.3 would read these directly without needing to
edit anything in the files. If you guys can gzip/zip up a few
examples, I'm happy to give it a shot.
Cheers,
John Stone

Whenever I try to visualize using a backbone-based representation (ribbons, cartoon, etc.), nothing shows. Has anyone here dealt with a similar problem before?
