After trying to figure out some information about UP, I have come to the conclusion that it is no where near user-friendly as SimV. So as the title suggests, is this mod pack worth it for someone that does NOT do multiplayer with Il-2?
It seems to add an insane amount of content which is great.
But does it create less irritating AI?

The UltraPack is way worth the 2 gigs or so of space. I don't recommend the new one, however... I use UP 201. (I can get you a link if you want Wink

).
What do you mean by less irritating AI? If you mean that they fly better (don't crash into mountains deliberately and stuff), yes. You can get all the modifications you want off of http://sas1946.com/. ; Cheesy

Loud and talkative Bengal cat. He's not ours; his owner lives two houses down, but he wanders around the neighborhood getting food and talking to his human friends. He'll sometimes get into a fight if he meets another cat though... But it's rare because he's kicked out all other cats in the neighborhood. He thinks all the houses are his too...

Just to show you some of what mods can do:

Note the blood in the cockpit... And the wheels... And the smoke and fuel leaking... Cheesy

I have heard that 201 is what can be used with 4.11 patch as well. Do you know if this is true?

At any rate, if you can send a link to that version of 201 I would most definitely be grateful and try it!

Thank you!

4.11 is for the new UP (3.00 or something)
You need 4.09m for UP 201. Hold on, I'm finding a link for you right now... Huh
