Story

Inferno is an unofficial sequel to Freespace 2, centered on the restoration of the Sol jump node in Delta Serpentis. 35 years after Capella, the GTVA re-established contact with the Earth Alliance, the warlike rulers of Sol that emerged from the ashes of the GTA. A war between the GTVA and the EA rages on, with the Vasudans remaining neutral in the conflict. During the EA-GTVA war, the Shivans return.

In addition to the main Post-Capella plot, Inferno: Alliance covers the events that occurred in Sol following the destruction of the SD Lucifer in 2335.

General notes

The Inferno Classic continuity, made up of Inferno Release 1 and Inferno: Alliance is in hibernation. A campaign named Inferno: Alliance 2, meant to fill the gap between INFA and the main INF timeline, was also conceptualized but no release ultimately was made. Team member Mobius ultimately ended up shifting assets from Alliance 2 into the Series Resurrecta continuity, and these campaigns retain various references to their origin.

Inferno Nostos is a reboot of the Inferno continuity. Nostos 1, a reboot of the original Inferno Release 1, was released in 2018. As of November 2024, Nostos 2 is currently in beta testing and voice-acting. Nostos 3, which completes the Inferno cycle, is slated for release in late 2025.

INF continuities

New Continuity

Inferno Nostos

Inferno Nostos is a reboot of the original Inferno R1. Nostos 1 was released in 2018. As of late 2024, Nostos 2 is in beta-testing and voice-acting. Nostos 3 is currently in development, with most missions playable and feature-complete.

Inferno: Alliance Standalone

Also known as: INFA:SA, INFASA, INFA1 (may also refer to INFA)

Inferno: Alliance Standalone is a reboot of the old Inferno: Alliance campaign. The main campaign is currently on hold, and progress on it is supposed to resume following the release of Nostos R3. Alliance Standalone's sequel, Alliance 2, has not passed the conceptualization phase. A release, if any, will happen after Nostos 3. Some of the satellite Alliance Standalone content has found a new life in Series Resurrecta.

Old Continuity

Inferno Classic

Also known as Inferno R1

Mostly known with the abbreviation INFR1, this is the first release of the Inferno project, dating back to 2003. INFR1 is compatible with Freespace Open thanks to a patch and additional support. A voice acted version of INFR1 was released on July 16th, 2023 for the 20th Anniversary of the mod. No development on a sequel is planned. All work on INFR's sequels stopped in the late 2010s.

Inferno R1 Ship Database

Inferno: Alliance

Inferno: Alliance, or INFA, is another MOD ideated by Woomeister and released in late 2006. It takes place in Sol many years after the collapse of the jump node connecting the system to Delta Serpentis. The campaign was focused on the war between Earth and Mars, leading to the foundation of the Earth Alliance.

-Originally supposed to be INFR1's sequel, all progress on INFR2 stopped and the mod has no longer been in development for several years.

+Inferno: Alliance, or INFA, is another MOD ideated by Woomeister and released in late 2006.

-==Debated==
-===[[Inferno: Alliance Standalone]]===
-'''Also known as: INFA:SA, INFASA, INFA1 (may also refer to INFA)'''
-Currently a WIP MOD, INF:A SA (or INFASA) is intended to replace Inferno: Alliance with a more complex story and several new combat assets. The plot background is the same seen in INFA - after the collapse of the Delta Serpentis jump node, Sol colonies regain their independence and GTA authorities are progressively removed.
-The mod is compatible with the FS Port and the presence of small VP files ensures full compatability with many FS Port campaigns using MODs.
-The release date has yet to be defined because of intense feature creeping, testing and upgrading.
-===[[Inferno: Alliance 2]]===
-'''Also known as: INFA2, INFA:2'''
-Although it's a sequel of INFASA, INFA2 is considerably different from its predecessor. Closer to INF SCP than INFASA, INFA2 will tell the story of the [[Earth Alliance|Earth Alliance's]] efforts in taking full control of Sol by defeating the feared [[Jovian Coalition]].
-==New Continuity==
-===[[Inferno Nostos]]===
-'''Also known as: INF SCP, INF Nostos, INFR2'''
-Inferno Nostos will rewrite the story of its predecessor (INFR1) and its supposed sequel. The new MOD has been in the works for many years and features a lot of models and new effects. Changes to the first part of the storyline, the one already seen in INFR1, are considerable under many points of view.
