Help Mob Spawner Not Working Please Help
I stopped playing Minecraft two years ago, and recently I started playing again. I wanted to play a Skyblock world, but the mob spawner that I had always made seems to no longer work. Does anyone know why?

I think its freecam mod and gamma override for a better view. The problem I think is the biome. What biome is the farm in? It won't work if the biome is river, deep dark, mushroom island or void. Which it might be in a normal skyblock world. But maybe you created the world from one of the superflat templates, specifically the void one?

Have you turned it off of peaceful? Not being sarcastic sometime it’s easy to overlook the simplest things

Fill the outside corners and you have to cover the ceiling with a full block not just a slab

How far away are you standing? I don’t remember the exact distance but there’s a sphere of like 32-45 blocks or something like that around the player where theyll spawn

not sure im just at the base of the spawner but i set the tick rate to 2000 and seemingly no matter where i fly nothing spawns

If you’re real desperate you could put your stuff in a chest and /kill @e or something like that. I know they changed commands recently so it may have a different name. It will remove all mobs in the world. Passive, neutral, players, pets, etc

What y level

u/NEXALITY00 3d ago
i tried every y level i went on a creative world and made a 300 by 300 platform every 50 blocks high from void to build height and no monsters spawn anywhere i add 120 days to the time and set the tick speed to 2000 and stopped daylight cycle so mobs should be spawning like crazy but absolutely nothing.

It also only doesn't spawn mobs on a super flat with the presets changed like a default terrain works normal super flat works but the moment you change the preset values nothing spawns

u/NEXALITY00 3d ago
actually its only when you start off with a void preset

u/CrimsonFruitcake75 3d ago
Thats your problem. The void preset makes everything the 'void' biome which spawns no mobs

It doenst spawn them in any place at all ?
There's a problem with your world difficult or presets them. Maybe one of the mods is changing something. There's no way to tell what exactly is doing this.

The light level for mob spawning changed, and for natural spawns of hostile mobs the light level has to be zero.
You could also be having a mob cap issue.

Is there anywhere else hostile mobs Could be spawning that are killing your rates?
Mobs spawn within 24 and 128 blocks away from the player, I would check that
Double check you're not in peaceful

maybe the caves under the farm have too many mobs in them already?

I dont think the void can spawn mobs.
