I was trying to install the S-400 mod using OVGME and that mod installer even don’t see the zipped file. Kind of weird. Only happen with this mod. 
 

that’s why I’m thinking this mod is not updated anymore and is abandoned.

did you get to install it on last beta version?

 

We've not abandonned it, but other IRL constraints have taken the priority over DCS development. We'll revisit the mod at some point in the future though, once we have the time. 

I don't use OVGME myself, so the mod's file structure wasn't designed with its use in mind. Sill, you can manually recreate the needed folder structure (username/saved games/DCS.openbeta/Mods/tech) and activate the mod via OVGME once it's done.

Should be transparent. The S-300/400 pack expands on the HDSM, with some commonality between the two. If you're not interested in the older SAM systems of the HDSM (upgr. SA-2/3, etc) you can stick with the S-300/400 pack.

I cant find the Sa-21 and Sa-22 in mission editor as this video show. This video uses this mod?

There are a few forks of HDSM which include some tweaks.  For instance, here is one Recoil and I worked on to add the Tin Shield to the S-300PS, replaced the S-300PS 5V55R missile with the in game 5V55R missile (higher performance, better PK), and fixed the Grill Pan's non-working HARM and RWR code (now shows up as an SA-12 with 112 HARM code):

https://github.com/Recoil016/HighDigitSAMs/releases/tag/v1.0.0

These issues have sat on the main fork for some time without any movement, so we forked it to make the changes.

This mod is cool and fills the gap in official DCS development, but how do you calculate drag data? 48N6 can do a 90 deg. turn after cutoff and still fly above 1000 m/s. As far as I know, missles loose toons of energy on maneuvers. E.g. does this turn look legit to you? Targeting a 2000km/h mig-31 at 10 km. Or drug calculation is defined by engine, not by mod? Soon I will reacreate this turn in xFlow CFD to find out.

Furthermore, why do it follow such trajectory, and not going straight towards calculated meeting point? Vanilla Patrion SAM also suffers from that thing, which makes it a trash.

Meanwhile, can't wait for other SAM release, esp. vanilla Patriot rework.

new info

[flag02004]

simple aerodynamics rules, very high altitude lesser drag....try the same mission at low altitude and you will see the missile losing more energy when turning inbound target....

Breaks IC as of 2.9, maybe because of SA 10's new textures?

[Buzzf18e]

Yes, same effect for me.

 

[pabel89]

This mod also breaks the default S-300

Yes, ED probably used the same name for something somewhere. I'll take a look when I have the time, in the meantime I don't have a solution unfortunantely.

[Lt.Turbo]

I was able to get an interim solution to work by modifying the entry lua to not load the 5V55R missile weapon file or the two launcher (5P85SE & 5P85SU) vehicle files that use it and then remove the 5V55R.edm from the shapes folder. This makes is so it no longer breaks IC, no longer effects ED's new s-300, and everything else in HDS continues to function as before except for the two removed launchers. They C and D (5V55RUD) launchers for the SA-10B remain and function fine.

[tripod3]

I tried to change 5V55R mentions in mod files to unique name (5V55R_HDS), but I found only shape and lua file for 5V55R, and I did not find any links from lua to model name. Its strange

 

But this works fine. Both systems and all launchers are operating normally. I renamed shape file and lua file to 5V55R_HDS

[Bazz_Mulder]

Here's quick patch fix, I just edited name of shape file to have _hds and in corresponding luas.

Go to "Savedgames\DCS\Mods\tech\HighDigitSAMs\Shapes" and delete file 5v55r.edm

Awesome, thanks.

I'm seeing a pull request in the works at https://github.com/Auranis/HighDigitSAMs/pull/47/files but can't figure out how to transfer the fix to my High Digit SAMs build in my Open Beta folder.

Thanks @Zahnatom - I just recommend folks go HERE to get the latest HighDigitSAMs upgrade.  Really appreciate the removal of the duplicative air defenses.

This upgrade is totally compatible with 2.9, right ?

I saw that somewhere is another S-300 asset - I think it’s called the S-300 pack, how is it different? The same units are there.

The S-300 pack has a few S-300 variants High Digit SAMs does not have... specifically it has the S-300V4, S-400, and Pantsir.  The S-300 pack, similarly, is lacking some of the things form HDSM like the various Igla variants, the different SA-2 and SA-3 missiles, and the SA-17 (a Buk which can do point defense).
