Features:
--Adding several weapons and hardpoints to original ships.
--Faster, high-octane space battle gameplay.
--New models, units, and re-skins of some existing units.

just checking on this, is this working properly currently?

Hah, that's not even the main problem. The real issue is that unlike in classic, projectiles are now modelled as individual physics objects that are tracked completely from weapon to destination, unlike in HW2 where weapons either applied damage or didn't and projectiles were just cosmetic for the most part. This increases CPU load and thus in Remastered, it may end up piledriving people's computers. Again.

Hi folks - sorry there has not been much progress with PDS in the last year. The last HW:RM patch vastly changed the way how squadron code works and this has been difficult porting PDS' dogfighting scripts for squadrons with their changed weapon systems. Work on this mod is asleep right now until any of the devs (myself included) get a chance to sit down and work on the patch overhaul which may take some time.

Apologies to all the fans looking for updates, but thanks for your passions and sorry we won't be able to deliver for a while longer.

There isn't going to be an RM version. The mod's dead, sorry folks.
