What is Craftable Spawners Mod
Craftable Spawners lets you craft mob spawners in survival mode. Normally you can only get spawners from dungeons or the creative menu, but this mod changes that. You can now craft spawners for any mob type with balanced recipes. Since spawners give infinite experience, the recipes are designed to be expensive enough that it’s not too easy.

How to Craft a Spawner
First, craft the spawner core in your crafting table. Then surround the core with iron bars like this:
M R M R X R M R M
M = Moss Stone, R = Iron Ingot, X = the item for your mob type (see lists above)
Spawner Rules and Behavior
- Hostile mobs need darkness to spawn (this includes Blazes)
- Passive animals need grass blocks
- Sheep spawners produce random wool colors, which can’t be changed
- Villager spawners always produce the default brown robed villager
- Squids need water to spawn
- Slimes need the right depth and chunk type
- Wither can spawn in the Overworld from this spawner
- Skeleton spawners in the Nether will spawn Wither Skeletons instead
Installation Guide
- Download and install Minecraft Forge for your version
- Download the Craftable Spawners mod file
- Open your .minecraft folder and go to the mods subfolder (create it if it doesn’t exist)
- Drop the downloaded .jar file into the mods folder
- Launch the game and enjoy
Important Info
- Works with other mods that add spawners, no conflicts
- Maps built with this mod don’t need the mod installed to work
- Spawners created with this mod are legit items, no special mod content added
- The actual spawner block wasn’t modified, so other spawner mods still work fine
- What you craft is a Spawner Builder item that creates the real spawner block
Pro tip: Install Just Enough Items if you use Forge, or Roughly Enough Items if you use Fabric. These let you see all the crafting recipes in game.
