Version 10.11 Patch - This patch is only for Version 10.10 users. This update addresses the following issues found in Version 10.10:
- If an error occurred while saving the environment geometry to the case file, HVE displayed a "Resource Not Found" error message. This problem has been corrected (the correct error message is now displayed).
- Vehicle Editor: The Vehicle Wizard for 1-Axled trailers
incorrectedly calculated the rear overhang dimension. This
problem has been corrected.
- Event Editor: On Windows 8 machines, HVE would often crash when the Driver Controls dialog was selected. This problem has been corrected.
- Event Editor: On machines with high screen resolution (e.g., 1920 x 1080), the default font size would cause truncation of data displayed in the last column of the driver control tables. This problem has been corrected (HVE now detects the current screen resolution and selects the appropriate font size).
- Event Editor: An error occurred while saving some case files
with SIMON events: If the Accident History basis was set to
Force and the file was saved, when the file was opened, the
Accident History Basis would revert to Acceleration. This
problem has been corrected.
Further information about enhancements and bug fixes is provided in the Release Notes.
NOTE: Version 10.10 must be installed first before installing the patch files for Version 10.11. This is not a full standalone installation.

SIMON Version 4.12 Patch - This patch is only for HVE Users with Version 9.12. This update provides the following improvements to address issues found in SIMON Version 4.11:
- The ABS algorithm was changed to allow simultaneous braking and heavy throttle application. This has implications for simulating events involving possible unintended acceleration.
- The vehicle may have previously moved in reverse due to a negative drive torque if started at a very low speed and no throttle was applied.
- The sign of the brake torque output for user-assigned wheel damage was changed to be consistent with brake torque from normal braking.
- The brake torque calculation for slowly spinning wheels was changed to improve stability for stopped (or nearly stopped) vehicles.
- If the user edits the Maximum Tire Deflection greater than the tire Unloaded Radius, a warning message will be displayed when the SIMON event is initiated.
Detailed information about these changes is provided in the Release Notes.
The updated SIMON.exe file is contained in a single zip archive that must be downloaded and extracted to the correct folder locations. Installation instructions are included in the zip archive. NOTE: This update is only applicable to HVE Version 9.12 installations and the user must install a new license file from EDC in order to use the updated physics program.

EDSMAC-v5.11 & EDSMAC4-v7.32 - This update is only for HVE and HVE-2D Version 9.00 users. It addresses the following issue found in EDSMAC and EDSMAC4 installed with Version 9.00:
- If the Total Mass Dimension Basis is selected, the Travel Distance output result is incorrect; it is not accounting for the difference between the total mass and sprung mass center of gravity location at each output time interval. This problem has been corrected. Travel Distance is now displayed correctly for both Sprung Mass and Total Mass Dimension Basis.
EDSMAC4-v7.32 includes the correction provided in the EDSMAC4-v7.31 update listed below, therefore users only need to install this update.
The updated EDSMAC.exe and EDSMAC4.exe files are contained in a single zip archive that must be downloaded and extracted to the correct folder locations. Installation instructions are included in the zip archive.
