Dear Mihaly,
When you load multiple PDB files, be sure that you set the
molecule file brower "Load files for" chooser to "New Molecule",
when you are loading PDB files of different structures.
If you don't tell it you want it in a new molecule, VMD assumes that
you want to use the Nth PDB file as a coordinate file, loading it into a
new timestep on the existing molecule.
This is one area where VMD 1.8 differs substantially from previous versions.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
John Stone
