User blog comment:LOTRMod/Why hasn't the mod updated to 1.8 yet?/@comment-27751354-20160207102005

I understand that updating a mod of this caliber is a intense process but isn't it a bit inevitable that an update has to happen? I mean how many dedicated mods (not just one time off basic coding thrown together) that are still alive are being updated for the beta and alpha versions. The oldest version i've seen that still has a living mod being made for it is 1.5 which is not that far behind. Sooner or later this mod will have to either update to the new versions or join the ranks of the other dead mods.
