Ok so, I just want to ask you guys if you know any solutions to my mod spawner room because the mobs are NOTSPAWNING as you can see...
This is the top floor where the mobs are suppose to spawn
Top floor looking down the 32 block deep hole
Bottom of the pit looking to the top of the floor where the mobs are suppose to spawn
The room is 21 blocks wide and 5 tall and the water is in the middle and creates a current that is suppose to bring the mob into the center of the room where the mob falls 32 blocks down. I'm hoping that's deep enough to kill the mob in one hit.
Iv been waiting for a mob to spawn at the bottom floor (35 blocks away) and no mobs are spawning nor I hear any mobs make noise. I just want to ask you guys if there is any solution to this problem. There is also no light in the top floor...
Difficulty DOES NOT affect spawns. Seriously. Also, you need to be at least 24 blocks away for them to spawn in those rooms.
My spawner is working just fine... a constant stream of mobs as usual. I know other people are having problems with this, but I'm sure it will be addressed before too long.

If you have caves surrounding your spawner, even if they are closed off, make sure they are light enough to not spawn mobs.
There is a certain number of mobs capable of spawning per chunk, and if they are spawning in a cave 10 blocks away, then there is a chance that none will appear in your spawn room. Use a map viewing program to check for surrounding caves, and make those light enough to stop spawning.

That seriously is strange. What is the floor of your spawn room?
Tip: clear up any caves(light them up) near the spawn room 144 (I believe, correct me if I'm wrong) blocks away in all directions. Also light up large surrounding area of the surface. This to concentrate mob spawn in the spawner room.
Seriously though, make sure mobs are not spawning underground or around the dark room, only a certain number can be alive at once.
Also is this near your spawn? mobs don't spawn within 24 blocks of your spawn
Oh ok. Just noticed that my player is the one thats more than 24 blocks away but my actual spawn is about 5 blocks away from the spawner because when i created the file, i spawned right on the best spot so i just created my base right in front of me and i have double doors and between the double doors, i have a middle door where you go in and its the enterance to the mob spawner. i think you just helped me sir :biggrin.gif:

How close is this structure build to your spawning chunk? If i remember correctly monsters never spawn anywhere in that chunk and a few areas around it.
Show me where you are getting your figures. Everyone I've collaborated with on mob traps sticks to the 72 block radius, so I'm very curious to see the evidence to support your claims.
My system:
The full trap kills about 6k mobs per hour... I have maybe 5% finished and it already clogs.

Also, how does YOUR mob spawners look like?
[EDIT] I did have my difficulty to hard
Remember to watch your back.
Seriously, though, I don't have a spawner; I can't help you.
About that. My difficulty was set to hard!
Remember to watch your back.

Well now im just going to get a program and move my spawn away so that it will spawn, i wonder if that would help :biggrin.gif: thanks for your post!
Remember to watch your back.
No problem
I've heard peaceful kills a lot of spawns.
Wrong. Very, very wrong.
Nope. Mobs spawn in a square, dimensions 272 by 272, with you in the middle chunk. Any mobs further than 128 blocks from a player are despawned.
The New Boat Elevator
Simple Drowning Trap
Complex Drowning Trap
Note Blocks - The Blue Danube
Minecart Rider Detection System
OK i just got the results!
THANKS TO YOU I FIXED IT :biggrin.gif:
I moved my spawn point away by using the Single Player Commands mod
here is the results!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Remember to watch your back.
Show me some of your mob spawners!
try to include some pictures!
Thank you!
