So I went to the download page for SRB2 Destructive Illusion and when I went there I saw the message:

sanick#9710, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1.Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2.If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.


Why is this happening?
 
I heard bad thing about this mod.


I've watched a video on it...


I am sorry but it looks like a big fan-fic.
 
From what I know I think there were bugs on the mod and the creator didn't fix them so it was removed

Kinda, it has some good concepts though. And mechanically it was pretty well executed. I didn’t find any bugs with it, but if it was removed for that reason, then I guess it’s fine. Hopefully the creator does fix them, as I had fun at least with the first few levels.
 
Destructive Illusion is a source mod that doesn't have its own MODID, so it can be joined from a vanilla build of the game if it hosts a netgame, and that would be quite problematic. It hasn't been updated in that regard, so it's been sitting in Rejected Submissions since until the author decides to.
 
The reason DI was removed was because the custom EXE didn't include a check to stop it from connecting to vanilla games... Or something along those lines.

Nothing too horrible happened, lol. Manimi never bothered to fix it and it was thusly removed from Releases.

But here's a download link if you really want it.

This folder includes the files to DI, it also includes a 2.2.1 installer, and a 2.2.4 patch. DI does not work in any other version than 2.2.4, so you'll have to make a new directory with the 2.2.1 installer, and then patch it to 2.2.4 before adding the DI files.

Speaking of source mods with no MODIDs...

The same thing happened with SMSunleashed 1.09.4 (at least, probably happened, i knew that from watching GoldenShine's SMS history video), which also forced the devs to ban the WAD entirely.

The di_skins.lua file is missing. I can't run the game without it.

Really? Dangit. I was interested in playing the game.





Edit: Hold on. What submission guideline did the mod not meet? Was it that he did not share the modified source code along with the mod?

As said before, it was due to DI not having a modid, so SRB2 Vanilla and DI can crossplay with eachother, which leads to issues.
