[Smac-users] About the smac and new energy model

[Wei Ye]

While Yuan Li (cc'ed) might give you more details of the multi-hop
simulation, I just want to quickly check with you.

1) Are you using the latest ns-2 snapshot? The new energy model is not
in the 2.28 release.

2) To check if the problem is related to the new energy model, you can
run your simulation with the ns-2.28 release version and see if the same
problem happens.

Regards,
Wei

P.S., I cc'ed the mail to S-MAC users in case other people had the same
problem.
