I am currently using Modloader with SpawnerGUI and that might indeed be one way to solve this issue. Single Player Commands can also help out, because you can spawn any amount of any mob with a command.
However, in my opinion modding this it is like a bandaid on a wound. It will releave temporarily, but it is no solution to a bug in a beta version. So I still hope that they fix it one way or the other in 1.9.
I like the idea of animals breeding, so you can start a real 'farm'. But if it would be turned back to the old despawn and respawn system, it would be ok to. At least they've got to do something about it, because now it doesn't work at all!
I had a "pet" sheep, made him blue(using dye) and put him in a pen in my house. Named him "Sheeper"(Like the one from that Hobo series XD) and I traveled to areas FAR FAR away for a long time, came back, and he was still there in the pin. I thought he didn't respawn cause I made him blue and by dyeing them it makes them not despawn, but now it seems that ALL animals don't despawn. Lawl I was dumb.
:sad.gif: Now they'll need to breed and it's annoying how they spawn less because then it's gonna get harder and harder to find wolves for me but on the "bright side" now my wolves can make puppies with my 2 wolves! Oh and I'm gonna kill the animals less cause of the breeding and the babies :smile.gif: :Daimond:

I'm actually having animals despawn. Particularly sheep. I have an enclosed barn with 2 of each animal in it. I come back after awhile sometimes and find 1 disappeared. Its gettingto be a pain having to go back around and find another pig or sheep..

Weird, that shouldn't be possible. Maybe it's an idea to keep 3 or 4 of each animal in your barn. If one is lost one way or the other you still have a couple to breed with.
Awwwww there are puppies!!!!! That must be sooooo cute! Does anyone have pictures of them? I looooove puppies! I hope the Yogscast will make a video on them, that would be really cool!
I can't seem to get a 20x15 room of grass to spawn animals. Does this mean that it's going to be difficult for mobs to spawn and you'll have to spend almost all of the sunlight time collecting animals to breed them and then kill off their children JUST for food?

This is the whole point of animal persistency and animal breeding, so yes, you will.
Of course, it's like any farm. Time constraints will diminish the longer it is operational.

Well, that sucks. :/
Maybe fishing will be considered "fast" then.
ModLoader, AudioMod, SpawnerGui, and Toomanyitems. That'll set you right up.

Yeah, animals don't despawn anymore.

Unfortunately I'm not pro enough to mod without MCP :tongue.gif:
And 1.9 will have breeding, hopefully ^^.
Absolutely...this is first rate ecological research. A+++++ and a for all your long hours, attention to detail, and hard work.
Agreed, agreed, and agreed.
This is not trivial one and should be get some attention from Mojang.
