i mean... the threads confused me, and i can't find any information that won't spoil something while i'm reading...
i don't understand the whole Inferno thingie... is it a saga? are there various campaigns to play that follow the "inferno" storyline?
if so, could someone please tell me the correct order of those? ( and where to download them, since there are no links at all in the download section of the hosted project... )
if this project is still to be finished, then im sorry, i didn't mean to put preassure or anything, but its just that i couldn't understand and the threads do spoil a lot! :blah:
thanks!!!

K, listen closely, young grasshopper:
INFR1 = old and outdated, but released, version
INF:A = prequel series to Inferno's main campaign, part 1 released
INF:A2 = part 2 of INF:A, unreleased
INFASA = "Inferno: Alliance Standalone", a re-working of INF:A so that it is better, with improved story and the ability to stand alone, without FS
INF SCP = the "current" Inferno Project, being worked on. Not released.
Go to the "Old Releases" page on the website to find INFR1.
Go to http://inferno.hard-light.net/SOL/ (http://inferno.hard-light.net/SOL/) to find INF:A's website.

thank you so much!!!
is this info in some FAQ or somewhere else? because maybe there are other like me, but who give up instead of just asking...
or maybe i'm just plain dumb and didn't see it. :D
again, thanks.

Actually, i was just like you too. freespace is a hard thing for a noob to get their head around, but once you've mastered it, thats it. done. finished. you know everything. :nod:
-
Would I be correct in thinking that the most definitive versions of the campaigns would be:
INF SCP, standalone
INFASA, standalone
INFA2, running on INFASA
of which none are yet released, and all are separate from normal FS2 installations?
-
That is correct.
-
I agree with you. Its not really easy to understand whats going on here and where I can find all necessary files. Unfortunately Tureys installer wont give me any DL-options and the websites are much more then only outdated... :(
-
where i can find INFASA ?
-
A ways into the future.
It's not done yet.

Let's wait this one out then.
Hmm hmm hmm...
Anyone know any good jokes? :drevil:

Er, okay that's still confusing.
So okay, INF SCP is a rework of INF:R1. INF:A1+2 are prequels to INF SCP and INFASA is reworking of INFA1+2. Not sure why A2 and ASA are being worked on concurrently when the release of ASA seems to make A2 obsolete. And why not just call INFASA instead INF SCP:A?
Anyway . . . whatever. Clearly those acronyms were neither created by the same person nor at the same time or else they would be less confusing.

Wrong about the INFA part. INFASA is only a rework of INFA1, NOT INFA2. INFA2 will be part of a second INFASA release.
-
Those mods are rarely discussed, confusion's not a real damage.
You only need to know INFR1, INFA and INFASA(for now).

Huh?

Released and quasi-released Inferno packages. INF SCP is far from completion.

You're confusing everyone even further. INFR1 is completely different from INFSCP.

Er, so why isnt INFA2 named INFASA2 then instead? That's where the confusion comes in.

I think I lost track of these Inferno things a few months ago. It was probably when INFamous and INFinity were announced. Oh, and the canceling of INFection really made me sad.

Because INFASA2 sounds stupid.
-
Actually, it would be INFA2SA (Inferno: Alliance 2 - StandAlone), not INFASA (StandAlone 2 WTF?)
But its still long and stupid, although, its much less confusing...

Calling it INF:A INFASA and INF:A2 is like calling a second chapter of SCP version INF:R2
That's all I'm saying.
-
Dude, INFA2 is a campaign with a small modpack to be placed in the main INFASA folder, not a separate mod!
You're confusing everyone even further. INFR1 is completely different from INFSCP.
When did I say that they're similar?
People only need to know released and almost released Inferno modpacks. What's the point in discussing INF SCP if it is going to be released in 2010?

The point is that INF SCP is bad-ass! :nod:
-
No doubt INF SCP is the greatest Inferno modpack but its release seems a bit remote right now.
Anyway, there's the FreeSpace Wiki: http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Inferno

But it doesn't mean we can't talk about it.

I agree...so I'll wait. ;)

Don't underestimate INFASA ;7 :P
-
What is corret order of playing Inferno?
Is it recommended to play in order of releasing Inferno -> Inferno A (1->2) or prequel (Inf. A) first?
Is Sol:History related to Inf 'saga'?
-
You can play the mods in any order. Just make sure that you use the latest patches when playing INFR1.
S:AH isn't INF-canon but is connected to it. You can play it whenever you want, I think consider playing it before INFR1 is a good choice(you'll need INFR1 to run S:AH, however).
