I'm currently using Too Many Items mod to change the default placed pig mob spawner. Although, since the lastest update when placing a 'Zombie' spawner the zombie shows for an instant inside the spawner before reverting to the default pig. I removed all plugins and problem persists. So, a Bukkit issue? bump? Anyone? EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
Sort of. Some say it's vanilla server behavior, due to block data filtering (which wasn't always completely enabled). Try this: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/silkspawners/ I haven't tried with Too Many Items, but have seen it work with Not Enough Items in some configurations.
