The Inferno Editor is a modern level editor for Descent 1 and 2 designed for efficiency and ease of use. Inspired by Blender and UnrealEd.

• Interactive extrusion, translation, rotation, and scaling
• Entirely new radiosity light model with support for per-side settings
• Real-time renderer that animates powerups, scrolling textures and flickering lights
• Quickly mark and edit geometry using the mouse and various selection tools
• Copy marked segments and their contents along with support for mirroring
• Edit multiple objects at once. Supports copying and transforming across segments.
• Shows connections between triggers and their targets

• Windows 10 64-bit
• DirectX 12 capable GPU
• A retail copy of either Descent 1 or Descent 2

On first start the editor will ask to locate the Descent 1 or Descent 2 executables. It uses their folders to locate game data. These are also used when starting the game from the 'Play' menu.

There is a user guide in the help menu.
