MobCatcher
MobCatcher
Capture mobs and get eggs legitimately:
Version: 3.18
This project has moved over to SpigotMC!
Thank you guys so much for all the downloads on BukkitDev. Head on over to SpigotMC to download the latest version of MobCatcher.
This page will no longer be updated.
MobCatcher allows players to capture mobs and get the corresponding spawn eggs. This is useful for trading and transporting mobs from player to player or even across worlds. As well as having a configurable capture item, MobCatcher also boasts configurable mob types and item costs per capture, bringing a new economic value to mob types both peaceful and hostile. MobCatcher is able to store and recall mob specific data saved to specific spawn eggs. This means things like capturing and spawning colored sheep, baby animals, and tamed wolves is possible! This is done via a separate .dat file which saves data for each mob and removes it when that mob is spawned.Try it out on your server today!
This plugin collects basic usage information for mcstats.org. You may opt out in the generated pluginMetrics config file.

MobCatcher will NOT work if you are not using the version of CB it was intended for. Due to the Bukkit "safeguard' system, MobCatcher will break every version change. Do NOT post tickets or comments about ClassNotFoundExceptions or infinite spawning glitches as these are caused by you using the wrong version.
Before posting a bug, check your server console for a giant red error message.

Posted Jul 5, 2013Trying to be patient, but our server relies on this heavily!! Will it be finished within the next few hours, or not?

@BrandonT91
Thanks :)
I didn't have time to get to this today, as I had to leave early to reserve my spot along the river for the fireworks show. I'll be home all day tomorrow and I'll be updating MobCatcher for both 1.5.2 and 1.6.1, as well as probably updating EpicGlass.
As always, thanks for understanding, thanks for the support, and you know where the donation button is, lol. :)

That's because it wasn't written for 1.5.2.
Each version of MobCatcher is written for a specific build of bukkit. The features in this plugin simply are not attainable with only the bukkit api, believe me, if they were i'd make all this compatible in a heartbeat. Since the safeguard system was implemented (CB's files are renamed when they are changed, more or less) backwards/forwards compatibility is just not possible.
Please try and be patient, I'm doing updates whenever I have time but it's hard to keep up with an ever changing game.

When 1.6.1 Bukkit is ready, do not use this plugin till its updated.
Read the red text on the page. :)

No, that would mean adding in a free armor exploit on most servers.
