Yes, but that's also a limited target audience. 1200 steam xp11 users right now which can get the popup. Compared to hundreds of thousands of possibly interested steam users. Laminar Research customer -- Asobo/MS customer -- not an X-Aviation customer - or am I? 😉

Their dev team is as active as ASOBO, within the necessary constraints imposed by size & budget, but both the guys @ ASOBO and the guys @ LR are passionate about their work ! and that's good enough for me to find good reasons to believe in them and support their work. I agree with you, I really want to like XP and I actually did so - but I am not yet mature enough to forget what word not allowed some of the pillars of XPs' community were talking about MSFS. It was very unprofessional and felt like promotion for some kind of religion. Guys who are actually contracted by LR itself. On the other hand, I've not heard anyone officially involved with MSFS talking bad about XP. Edited September 19, 20223 yr by tweekz Happy with MSFS 🙂 home simming evolved

Anyway whatever people do, their actions, stay with them, and the Universe responds back ... I like XP12 for what it can become, just as I liked MFS when I tried the first beta, even with it-s many quirks. The only thing I really don-t like about XP12 right now is the stress it puts in my poor RTX 3060 Ti which could gladly run MFS without getting so hot 😞 Edited September 19, 20223 yr by jcomm 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)

I have posted lots of pictures and videos of MSFS, its a wonderful simulator. I can't get enough of PMDG B737! I have been using XP12 since the day of release. Although it requires more effort than MSFS, it is still a stunning sim. Here is a small video of my last XP-12 flight over the Yorkshire Dales in the UK. What a fantastic time for flight simulation!

Some dead people are actually a lot more "active" and important after death than while living their lives. And for a spiritualist like me, who strongly believes in Life after Death, XP12 is like a Transe... I feel myself Levitating with Dua Lipa every time I load XP12, while MFS ties my spirit to the ground - it's gorgeous for sure in MFS ... the ground...

September 20, 20223 yr Well. The point is, there is almost every plane of importance in XP11. If they port them over for 10$, they won't make lot of money from it. Happy with MSFS 🙂 home simming evolved
