as per deadlock's Faq on his mod portal:
"Black Rubber Belts has been retired and is no longer being maintained. It will not be updated for Factorio 1.2 or Space Age."
I highly doubt that the original mod will get updated.
Thank you for posting it anyways! I have it downloaded already so I am enjoying it. I want to say something else but I feel like I shouldn't so I won't.
