Only one problem now, if eld comes back and all of this work is wasted @__@
I wouldn't say that. This pack has provided a somewhat consistent update over the years of patches to Minecraft. I personally have enjoyed working on the textures and have improved over that time as well. If eld did come back with the intention of replacing all the work we did, we at least continued his legacy and preserved some portion of his fanbase by contributing.
With no word of eld continuing his work, jmans willingness to update, and other texture contributors like myself, I see the life of this unofficial pack having quite a few more years in it.

altswang makes a very good point, if nothing else we have helped to keep the pack alive in Eld's absence, and I could never consider that to be a waste, even if he does someday come back. Although as alt said, I haven't heard any word on Eld returning to the pack, and also as he said I have absolutely no problem finding even just a little time to help keep this pack going, it would be too much of a tragedy for it to die after all this time!
Ahhh, It's awesome that this is still going! Amazing!
Side note, who did the magma block? It looks great! Was wondering if they could make an animation for the magma block? I think it'd be super cool if it was animated.
EDIT: As it turns out, the magma block is animated, I just didn't notice it! My bad! It looks great!
Is it possible to get older versions of Eldpack like for 1.8.9?
So I don't really know if anyone has like an official copy of the texture pack for 1.8.9, but I managed to find this hiding in one of my old backups of Minecraft. This version I've confirmed to work with 1.8.9.
Oh no I jinxed myself! JKJK, Thank you for the kind works sir, haven't heard or seen anything from you in a very long time. Is there possibly more to this visit, or just a friendly hello?
Side note: Got some additions/changes incoming. 1.11 stuffs and since shulkers got a big change with the backpack I did an overhaul on the purpur stuffs. Vex got a texture, not 100% happy with it but im sure i'll do some more work to it.

I actually do still have all the old versions of the pack stored in my MediaFire account, do people think it would be worth having links to some older versions, and if so, which versions should I put up? Thanks DJ for covering me on that also!

Thank you very much, yep that was me who did that texture, when new textures come out I usually try to do a rough texture for it until someone like altswang is able to come and make a proper texture for it, but thank you very much for the kind words!
Hello there Eld, thank you so much for taking the time to drop by! I hope everything is going well for you, been a while since I heard from you but I'm glad to see you're still around! Thank you very much, I hope we are doing EldPack a service and keeping up with the style you created as best we can! It really is an honor to help maintain this pack, and I'm very glad we have your support!! Thanks again, really appreciate you stopping by!

New textures are looking fantastic so far, haven't had much time to look at the 1.11 stuff yet thanks to college, but it's looking great as ever! Feel free to post the downloads to them when they're ready, I'm very excited to get the pack ready for the new update!
He returns for a hello! Oh how I've missed my favorite texture pack artist.
This and the old quandary texture pack are my all-time favorites from when I started in 2010. Can never find a pack to even compare.
Could not agree more, ever since I first found the pack it has always been my goto, could never find one quite like it, and I love that I'm able to help keep it maintained!
Eld is my favourite pack, i fell in love the first time i saw it.
And now ive found it again, TY Xorjt for this.
PD: Are you going to make 1.11?
For sure, I believe altswang is making some progress on the new stuff, things have been busy for me lately but I'll try to find some time to get a few textures done in the near future, at least so everything is textured!
There are still older updates that still need some textures to them. They are just a chore to do. Like horses rabbits guardians. Basically entities are the biggest challenge for me to get right, and every attempt i have made I dislike. Getting their color palette and general design to blend with the already existing mobs is harder then it seems.

Thank you very much alt, everything looks amazing as per usual! And yeah I completely know what you mean with the mob textures, I know I would never be able to do those myself, I've tried and they just never look any good, but I'm sure you'll be able to do them justice! Keep up the awesome work man, really is a pleasure having you around!

You are nothing short of amazing, everything so far looks great
Any progress since we heard from you two in november?
Nothing yet on my part sadly, college has me constantly swamped with work, but hopefully when I get some free time I'll be able to have some sort of texture for anything that altswang doesn't cover! I'm not on super frequently but I try to check in here whenever I can!

Been dead to the world for some time, just havent had the creative motivation to work on anything. There is usually some feature or item that really interests me from a snapshot and I get overly enthused and knock out a bunch of textures. I always look out for new snapshots so I think I just need that one awesome new thing and I will get inspired.

No problem at all, you've always done a lot for the project and you certainly have no obligation to, it's just a shame I have so little time to work on this anymore but I'll still continue to do what I can to keep it at least partially updated!

There are mods and modpacks that are still in versions 1.7.10-1.9 because some of them aren't updated yet. For example, the Aether mod. This resource pack used to have textures for Aether items/blocks (I'm not sure if they still have them or not), and the mod is still in 1.7.10. It also has a public indev that's in 1.10.2, but the primary mod is in version 1.7.10. I guess versions 1.7.10, 1.8.9, and 1.9.4 would be worth having links to because they have the most changes in between them (which could contain item and block id changes as well as changed texture formatting). Also, are the Aether textures complete, and if so, can they be updated as well to 1.7.10?
