Default Returning to the game: q about servers and mods

Hello all! I'm returning to the game after a couple of year's absence, and have now patched my game all the way to 4.11m.

I'm first and foremost an online player, so I'm eager to get back to the servers. But as I've understood, the online community is now fragmented due to different servers demanding different modpacks.

I have no idea at all about the mods. I used to fly in the most realistic servers, such as Warclouds and Spit vs 109. So, which mods should I get to fly in the more realistic servers and where to get them?

S!

There aren't a whole lot of 4.11 servers on yet last time I checked, so 4.10.1 + Ultrapack 3 will get you into most servers. It's quite easy to install too. Just download the full package (torrent) here:
http://ultrapack.il2war.com/index.ph....0;attach=1712

..and RC4 patch:
http://www.gamefront.com/files/20612...RC4_Client.exe

1) Patch clean game up to 4.10.1
2) Unpack/install UP3 into game folder
3) Unpack/install UP3 RC4 into game folder
4) Fly

EDIT:
If you liked War-Birds or Aces High 2 Arenas read this:

Still uses 4.09 and UP2 though, but excellent server.

UP is not current so don't bother about it...
There are a few servers at 4.11 on Hyperlobby, but they're mainly 'kiddie-servers'.. But there are 1 or 2 good ones still surviving.

Maybe 4.11 UP or HS will be onlline at a later stage.

however, with HSFX 6 poised to come out very soon which will based on 4.11, that will be my mod pack of choice for myself, although i will have UP3 and stock 4.11 as well, due to squad flying.

Current as in Version 4.11..
AFAIK UP on Hypperlobby is only on Version 4.10 servers - This might have changed

S!

I really recommend getting them all .. Use separate installs of the game and switch when necessary. My games folder (before installing 4.11):

Untamo, you are one dedicated player

Anyone care to clarify what do the different modpacks and versions include? Or point to a site that has the information?
