simulator:
<Callout type="warning" emoji="⚠️">
There is a newer version of X-Plane, X-Plane 12, keep in mind it may not be
worth it to buy X-Plane 11 as it will most likely reach the end of its life
with support from addon developers soon. This guide only has information for
X-Plane 11 as I do not have access to X-Plane 12.

# X-Plane 12
X-Plane 12 is the current generation simulator from Laminar Research. This simulator will run on Linux, as well as Mac
and Windows.
## Running X-Plane 12

## Installing Addons
Installing a lot of addons for X-Plane is quite simple as this game runs natively on Linux. A lot of the installation
is the same as Windows.
### Installing Windows only Addons
Previously on X-Plane 11, you could run the simulator through Wine/Proton which removed Vulkan support and forced the game
to run in OpenGL. X-Plane 12 drops OpenGL and forces Vulkan, leading to an error when you try to start the simulator.
