Description
Alpine Faction is an actively developed, free, and open source patch/modification for the 2001 FPS game Red Faction. It's not a source port, but its goals and features are similar to what you might expect from one. Alpine Faction is a fork of and uses Rafalh's incredible Dash Faction project as its foundation.

Alpine Faction endevours to fix bugs and resolve security vulnerabilities in the stock game, improve compatibility with modern systems, restore cut content, enhance engine performance and graphical quality, and modernize your experience by adding features that are expected in modern games.

Alpine Faction provides players, mappers, mod developers, and server operators with the tools to truly realize what their experience with this fantastic game can be.

I think Alpine Faction is the best thing that happened to Red Faction in 2025!

This patch improves a lot of things! I really like the buttons in this patch, thanks to which I can select a given folder. It's very convenient. I love the "client_mods" folder!

Next thing is the patch settings - they improve the quality of life a lot. Fullbright characters setting is a must have.

Another interesting thing I noticed are the commands. For example, we can spawn a Jeep, no matter which level - just type "drop_entity Jeep01". Great fun!

What else? New events in the editor. There are a lot of them, but I like HUD_Message the most. Cool thing if you create SP maps.

To sum up, Alpine Faction is the best patch for RF so far!

Alpine Faction is a Breath of Fresh Air. The new features that have been put into this are fantastic and it brings Red Faction to a slightly more modern feel. The new editor additions are needed things that Red Faction has never seen before from easier player teleports to random events. Fantastic work from the team!

Alpine Faction has been the biggest revelation of recent years . Fresh breeze in bit stale lovely game of ours, a lot of QoL changes, potential for totally new gamemodes /content . Cudos Goober for pro-bono XXX hours spend on this project. <3
And what is really neat about Alpine (as mentioned ) author is very open for discussion/adding new features/feedback. (r_picmip WHEN @natalie @goober arm2 ) .

CHILLS

ps. choosing AF as an acronym is nice too:lolpup:

Very well done with this latest patch. Fresh new look, lots of new features and capabilities and improvements to boot.

I really feel like this has modernized the game a bit more since Dash and I'm really excited to see the kind of things people can create with all the new additions to RED.

Very good work, no other dev in rf history has come close to the amount of work as this, quite literally you can request things to him on discord and there is a very good chance he will do it, it’s like having your own personal dev. The future of rf is bright with Goober

It has many useful features for both client and server, I for one am happy with the random map rotation and features such as ingame map reviews and pesky screen shake removal

With its active development you can be sure there will be new features AND game modes in the future, get with the times and get with alpine! :v

Amazing work, Goober and anyone else involved in this project. Goober has built upon Rafahls work to add many truly awesome features! I would go over all those awesome features in this review but they are numerous and I am quite lazy. Just go look up the list of features and you will be blown away!

This patch is an amazing amount of work not just on behalf of Goober, but Mitzi and nick and everyone else involved with the ideas, the features, the bug testing and amongst all else, keeping Red Faction moving to the modern times :)

Alpine brings the RED Editor much further forward with its advancement in several new events, dynamic lights and more!

Whilst users may note the patch tries to call for a virus - this is a false flag, Dash suffered the same issue for many people and similar files are involved, so please keep that in mind that you may need to allow Alpine through your Anti Virus softwares, Windows Defender and/or similar Protection software.
