Hi, just joined the forum to ask if there is anyway to move a mob spawner from the Twilight Forest into the Overworld using portal gun (or any other means to do so). Been racking my brains and searching the net but so far have come up with nothing.

Still using 1.4.2 pack btw (waiting on 1.4.6 ultimate pack).

Thanks in advance for any advice answers, and good work FTB team for producing great mod pack, excellent work:)

Also if this question has been posted in wrong section feel free to move it etc...

Welcome, I honestly didn't think there was a legit way to move a mob spawner at all, so at a guess I don't think this will be possible.

I hope I am wrong though and someone does have a way to do this :)

As far as I know, there is no way to move blocks between dimensions/worlds, not even with Mystcraft.

If you were on 1.4.6, I would tell you to make a XP farm and shard to make your own spawner, but I am not sure if that was in the beta pack.

When you're carrying a block, it's not actually still considered a block, which is why it can go through a Mystcraft portal. I'm wanting to think I've heard frames can shove something through a Mystcraft portal, but that would take more experimentation than I've done.

Yes, this definitely works. On my old BETA A server a friend and I got a brilliant idea in our heads to ferry a Blaze Spawner over to the overworld using portal guns and a mystcraft portal. That didn't end well, since our house nearby the containment area was made of wood...

Thank you for responses. Not at all experienced with Mystcraft tbh, but something i will check out right away.

Be interesting to see if i can get it to work.

Yes, Mystcraft portals can transport any block held by the Portal Gun, including spawners.

Note that on rare occasions I've seen the spawner not appear on the other side of the portal. But simply relogging fixed it.

^^ Thanks Abdiel, i will bear that in mind. Got to expect a few bugs to occur every now and then!

Glad to know it can be done though! Quite excited that i can move spawners between dimensions :)

I tried this tonight, carried a blaze spawner through a mystcraft portal with a gravity gun and it crashed the server. I decided to mess around with it a bit in single player and i found that whenever you walk forwards into the portal (so that the spawner goes in first) it crashes, and when you walk in backwards you get through the portal ok but the spawner just disappears. This in in the direwolf20 pack (v3).

Since it is already necro'ed, I will add some more to this thread.

Answers only for FTB Unleashed.

1.) MFR's PortaSpawner. It's a single use item that works kinds of like the single-use safari net, but for mob spawners.

2.) DartCraft's Force Wrench.

3.) Gravity Gun or Portal Gun.

4.) Not sure if I'm missing anything else or not. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable fills in the missing blanks.
