June 22, 20178 yr XP11 is part of the Steam summer sale, it's 26% off: http://store.steampowered.com/app/269950/XPlane_11/ The steam store can be quite busy (aka not responding) today, but the sale lasts until July 5th.

June 23, 20178 yr Wonder why they never have discounts on the standalone X-Plane? I quite like Steam and have bought X-Plane 10 on that platform (also on sale), but find that things like loading extra regions are a bit problematic as it wouldn't re-install from backups, and re-downloads several GB of data each time. I'm sure that with the standalone, you download a region once and can then quickly re-install from a download or backup. But that is really the only negative about the Steam version of X-Plane and maybe I'm doing something wrong and would be most happy if someone can correct me. i7-12700KF, RTX 3080 12GB, 64GB DDR4 3600MHz, ASUS PG348Q 34" ultra-wide monitor, Track IR 5, HP Reverb G2, Windows 10 64-bit

Look into your settings. I also make copy of the steamapps folder and restoring is a breeze. Took advantage of the sale yesterday. In the past, Steam is slower in making beta release available, but it's no longer the case. Plus with XPlane, 3rd Party vendor just needs to know where your install is, making using add-ons bought elsewhere easy. Vu Pham i7-13700K 5.2 GHz OC, 64 GB RAM, RTX5090, SSD for Sim, SSD for system.
