Could you put a sticky detailing every projets and initials ?
I played some Inferno campaign like 2 or 3 years ago, wanted to find it back a month or two ago, google it, and then realized that :
- There were several Inferno out there
- I couldn't figure which one was out, which one was not.
- I couldn't figure what was canon, what wasn't.
- The Work in progress Inferno looks promising !

Really, you should put a sticker, like "Read this first : What are the Infernos" because it's EXTREMELY confusing for newcomers.

I'll take this answer by Copecampbell in another thread as a basis :

Quote
INFR1 - The original Inferno, the one you know. Shadow0000 released a patch some time ago, look in the Inferno forum (not by the Inferno team). There is also a patch to make it SCP compatible, PM me if you need instructions. (Made by the Inferno team)

INF:SCP - A complete remake of INFR1, starting from the ground up. Uses the SCP engine and has many HTL ships. Yet to be released. (Work-In-Progress by the Inferno Team)

INFA - Inferno Alliance. A campaign that shows what happened in the Sol system after the jump node collapsed. (Made by the Inferno team)

INFASA - Inferno Alliance Stand-Alone. And update to INFA making almost all of the ships HTL, and improving the campaign. (Work-In-Progress by the Inferno team)

INFA2 - Inferno Alliance 2. The sequel to Inferno: Alliance, will be released as a mod for INFASA. (Work-In-Progress by the Inferno team)

INFR2 - The sequel to INFR1, dropped in favor of INF:SCP (By the Inferno team)

S:AH - Sol: A History. Alternate campaign about Sol after the Lucifer disaster. Made by Blaise Russel. An amazing campaign, I have yet to play it as I can't get it to work. (Fan-Made)

Solar Wars - A buggy campaign that deals with jumping Knososses and desroyers that can withstand the main beams of a Gigas. You are recommended not to play it. (Fan-Made)

And then people get to understand, and do not just "oh, curse it, let's play Wing Commander Privateer Remake instead like I did two monthes ago :)

Apart from that, thank you for what you are doing :)

I agree too. Inferno, unlike other mods, has a lot of branches. Prior to reading this post, I thought Sol: A History is Inferno canon.

Yellow = Not Inf-Canon
Greenish = Canon to Old Continuity
Purplish = Canon to New Continuity

If that makes sense...

You mean INF1 and INFSCP won't have the same storyline?

They're different storylines but they follow the same basic plot.

I'd also like to say something.

First of all there are many INF related pages in the FreeSpace Wiki, one of which is about the mod in general and its initials. People can simply browse that page.

Another important thing is: play the mod and master it. If you know that something is in the works, wait...

Very true, except, the Inferno related pages don't talk about Solar Wars, Steadfast, Dreamcatcher or Sol: A History.

Well, INFR1 and INFA are the only things that are released now. But that will soon change. ;7

Snail, the campaigns you mentioned aren't INF canon, the INF team isn't supposed to provide info regarding these campaigns. There's a Steadfast page simply because I'm a dedicated Stead and INF guy.

The fact that they're not on there means that people are going to ask about Sol: A History because it's not mentioned on the Wiki.

Why are you always trying to start arguments and flame wars?
Him or me? I have justification, it's not a flame war or an argument if it's me, it's just a discussion of conflicting opinion.

Re: Could you put a sticky detailing every projets and initials ?
I know - once again the fact that the FS Wiki is ignored by the most has emerged.

I'm not sure, but...the "official" Wiki article about FS2 gives the impression that S:AH is a "Made in :v:" campaign like Silent Threat...it confused me when I read it for the first time over two years ago.

This statement is debatable. In any case I heard from Snail that he had other things to do so he's fully justified. Further discussions about the subject are on Internal and nowhere else. Thanks.

Right now I'm doing some stuff for ED more than INFA, but I'm FREDding on and off for some other INFA-related stuff (I've also restarted work on a private unannounced project of mine...).

It's based on INF, but I might drop that idea since it'd causing problems with the modpack (MediaVPs conflicting with the INFR1 ones)
