questions about the MFFA boundary condition

Is there anyone who has used the MFFA boundary condition to simulate a vesicle?
I'm just come across it and have some confusions.
I have read the paper introducing it --Risselada et al. (2008) Application of mean field boundary potentials in simulations of lipid vesicles. J Phys Chem B 112:7438-7447
Then I download the necessary files from md.chem.rug.nl/~mara/mffa.html#howto .
In the example provided,a dopc vesicle was presented.I ran it successfully.
To run it, the water.sdb and lipid.sdb must be provided.
Following that,I want to simulate some other lipid moleculars, but I'm not sure the lipid.sdb still work.
If it doesn't work any more,how can I generate it for other lipid molecular?
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated!

What is the content of lipid.sdb

This potential can be used for any type of lipid, so no need to modify "lipid.sdb".
