[MECH] DisableMobs v1.4 - Easily choose which mobs spawn [1.4.5-R0.3]

Download DisableMobs 1.6

This bukkit plugin will easily allow the server owner to choose which mobs will spawn and which won't. The first time you run it, a configuration file will be generated with the names of all of the minecraft creatures. You can set each creature to true if you want them to spawn, or false if you don't want them to. For example, if Blaze is set to true, blazes will be allowed to spawn. If Blaze is set to false, you won't find any Blazes in your game because they are blocked from spawning. This is the same for every creature on the "Supported Creatures" list. Every creature is automatically set to true when you start except for the creeper. If you add this plugin to your server, and don't touch the configuration at all, everything will still be able to spawn except for creepers. You can use this plugin on almost every server! It becomes especially useful if you want to make a zombie or creeper apocalypse and set everything to false except for the zombie or creeper. For some reason, if you only leave one creature true, it will spawn insane amounts of that creature! Have fun!
For more information, visit our BukkitDev page. Thanks for the support!

 

@Jakeob22 Awesome plugin. Love the logo.

 

Update 1.1.1 is out! I added silverfish.

 

We've gotten over 40 downloads in 2 days! Keep the suggestions coming, I'm working on adding all suggested updates that I see possible.

(Right now I am working on the ability to alter spawn rates.)

 

Approved

 

Thank you!

 

If anybody has any comments, I would appreciated. I'd like to know of any problems that people are having.

 

limit mobs plz

 

I'm working on a new version right now. With the new version of bukkit, I have to update the way it can tell when a creature spawns. When I release I plan on allowing administrators to choose the spawn rate.
I'll do it! Should be out tomorrow or the day after if I can figure it out.

 

Plugin is missing settings for Ghasts.

 

It's not out!
Increased creeper spawn rate ftw.

 

Lolz, I'm working on it. Is it still working for everybody?
I'll have ghasts in the next update.

 

Updated again. Golems were added.

 

Multiworld support?

 

goldensugarpie
Updated and added multiworld support for you. I thought the plugin could use it. Good idea.

 

I appreciate it. Thanks.

 

just wondering,
i have a custom spawners plugin and want to make an arena so they only spawn on command?
will this plugin let mo do that, or will it completely disable spawners?

 

Great plugin. Simple and effective! Finally I can get rid of slimes on my server that is superflat!

 

Updating soon. Please check out my planned updates, HERE. Look for "Planned Updates".
Suggest here or on the dev bukkit page.

 

its not working for me it just disables every mob in the game instead of just the ones i set to false
What do i do??

 

Make sure that you don't have them turned off in the properties file. You should also make sure that another plugin isn't disabling them.

 

I am trying to use this mod with the Flatland setting on my server, in an attempt to curb the excess slimes or eliminate them. Ironically, with Manta's Mob Control, the slime is the only thing I can't eliminate. When I use this mod, ALL mobs, towns, and npcs are eliminated. I can watch grass grow because that's all there is.

I saw the message above, but I do have everything turned on in the properties file. Next?

Here are the settings I attempted.

So all of the mobs are being disabled?

 

The problems should be fixed. I would appreciate if somebody tested it and told me if this is working. I tested and it worked, but sometimes there are problems. Thanks.

 

Just hit 10,000 downloads! I also supported MCStats in the newest build. You can read more about it on my BukkitDev page!

 

Can i spawn giants with this plugin?

 

It has support for giants if you put "giant: false" into the config, but it won't force them to spawn. It's for if you have a plugin that does it already and you want to disable them or allow them.

 

Is spawn rate updated yet? My friend really wants a server where zombies spawn only and that the zombie spawn rate is higher.

 

If you only set zombies to true, you will get a massive amount of zombies automatically. It's a problem with my code, but I guess it helps in this case. xD

 

Updated to 1.4's latest version. Let me know if you find any problems!
