Runelite HD has been shutdown by Jagex right before release (old.reddit.com)

For context. Runelite HD is an graphical overhaul plug-in to go with Runelite, the de-facto 3rd party client for OSRS players. The project has been announced a while ago and regularly updated (teased).

This morning we learn that the plug-in would have been released today, but Jagex has asked the developer to shut it down.

A side by side comparison, as an example of how the graphics plug-in would look when enabled: https://old.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/k5lp5s/ferox_enc...

Wouldn't it be a shame if the author were to get "hacked" and the source code were to be "leaked"?
