August 29, 201510 yr Anything different from build 10? I just found it this morning and have taken a short flight with everything seeming to work well. There are no release notes posted yet, but I did notice one glitch I was having in the menu area having gone away. I could not stay in the advanced button setting area for long without it just freezing up. This morning, after the update, it seems to be working fine. John John Wingold

August 29, 201510 yr They really should change that ... It is my understanding that that might be a Steam thing Jose... That's what I think I have heard said in that they don't want to mess with the potential problems. John John Wingold
August 29, 201510 yr Author Yes, but although I only used Steam to by a couple of MS FLIGHT DLCs, FSX:SE and Cliffs of Dover, I am aware that at least one of these games had a "beta" version allowed mode, so that we could try beta versions before the final stable releases. Maybe they could do the same with XP10.

August 29, 201510 yr Ben has explained why Steam does not get Betas. Its because they would have to cut two different versions of X-Plane. Ben's Quote "No. As I have said before, we are not running the public beta process over steam. Doing so would double the development time of pushing beta builds."

August 29, 201510 yr Commercial Member The other download version does get beta updates I think. Paul Grubich 2017 - Professional texture artist painting virtual aircraft I love. Be sure to check out my aged cockpits for the A2A B-377, B-17 and Connie at Flightsim.com and Avsim library
August 29, 201510 yr Yes it does, because it is basically the same version as the disk version Jason E Row Follow me on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/JasonRowPhotography
August 29, 201510 yr Commercial Member I just emailed their customer service because I have to be 100% sure that it will allow betas before I purchase it.

August 29, 201510 yr Author I'm running the download version, bought 2 days ago, and the beta 11 installed today :-) Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
August 30, 201510 yr Commercial Member Thanks, that makes is easy then. One question, does Xplane charge for a new version like PD3 does, such as when Xplane 11 comes out will we have to buy it again?

August 30, 201510 yr Thanks, that makes is easy then. One question, does Xplane charge for a new version like PD3 does, such as when Xplane 11 comes out will we have to buy it again? X-Plane 11 is at least 3, probably 4 years away, but you can expect completely free support for the life of X-Plane 10. Yes, Laminar Research does charge for new versions, just like how you have to re-buy new versions of Adobe software, Windows OSes or Office (though all three are moving to a subscription-based model). But don't worry - X-Plane through Steam is far cheaper than P3D.
