Looked at both of those and the iron golem IRON FARM.
I want to point out that if you're going to spawn ANY villagers, you'd better get it done BEFORE the next update as there's a rumor that the villager breeding things going to change, or cease, I dunno particulars yet.
So, I'm gonna have to get a move on, I want that iron spawner, badly...infinite armor/picks as I see it.
Also, the villager rotator thingie, couldn't that be done with , I dunno, minecart chests? Will look at that too...
We need it in a clear spot. Linkit to the nether hub also.
There's a video out there for mass storage system, it has to be top loaded though. I bet minecart chests would work fine though.
Iron Golem Farm need to be jumped on. Find a spot way clear of any villages. Link it and we can start on it
Yeah I got booted too but I just relogged and it worked. It gave me a message of something about having trouble with the servers and they are trying to resolve the problem.
Yes sir, the construction is complete (As far as I know without testing)
Even have the hopper filter set up (again, as far as I know)
The landscaping around it needs doing and I'll get to that after it's successfully proven itself, I built it a little higher than I'd like, so some "clean up" around it will be necessary, but easily done. As this is my first "widget' I wanna go all out.
Even the "pouch" for the villagers is in place, just not the transport to it.
You could always make a water ladder and then just trap n convert two zombievillagers
I have two "pens" in the back corners of the construction area, IF anyone has the time and wants to, they can easily trap a zombie in them, one in each corner, just use a pick through the wall, and wall em in on the other side, it's gated, has a roof for avoiding sunlight, I can't remember if I left potions/apples in the chests but I don't think I did. I do have some though. I just remember how long it took me to get the first two last time. The trapping and stuff was easy, locating the random spawns was tediously long.
It's over 100 blocks from the front door of my outer wall, which is probably not the technical edge of the village, so I think there's added buffer there. as for any other direction, I "think" I'm ok...(huge assumption) If this thing works I am sooooo psyched about generating IRON !!! Picks for everyone, armor galore, steel doors all around, ANVIL's by the dozen...Oh, and glorious, glorious rail!!!
The site's outside the spawn house kinda centralized between the new"EQUUS bridge" (coming along nicely BTW) the "Spawn House" and my humble establishment (Has Gul passed away? Any sighting's? )
BTW, there's a walkway from my portal to the Spawnhouse with a lot of room for "stuff" if you guys wanna make a causeway out of it. It does need paving, but at the rate I'm accumulating cobble, that's not an issue. The bridge walkway butts up to it as well.
BTW(2), saw my FIRST "villager zombie" since using the new texture pack, was worried there wasn't a noticeable difference, but there is. However I wasn't set up to grab it and it died before I could do much with it.
BTW(3), is everyone using the 128 version, AND is anyone using or compared a higher one? Curious if I should try the 256 maybe?
I swear, it amazes me I can watch a you tube video, pause it, build it step by step, and still get it wrong!
Got everything in place and it DID spawn golems, it DID kill golems and it DID collect iron (and flowers).
It DIDN'T drop 'em in the nice little chest down in front.
Figs popped in so I asked him to come take a look see.
I thought I might have the filtering wrong, but it looked sound.
And then I looked at the hopper arrangement and came to the same conclusion Figs did.
The last two hoppers were not set up to pull from the filters (working properly) and drop in the chests.
And then here's the beauty (I think) of Minecraft. We came up with two different solutions.
So, it IS functioning now, BUT I am quite unhappy with the spawn rate. However, everything I've looked at seems to be huge to have a faster rate.
I will be looking at trying to speed this up a bit.
So, it works, but not as prolific as I'd like yet.
Oh, and I think we have a new member, The Blue Dawg(?) looking to join us.
A little advice to anyone new here, don't be shy and jump in with both feet. The harder you grab hold, the more you'll get! Post up, be seen and heard, most of us don't bite and you'll be surprised how helpful people around here are, IF they know you exist!

More doors, more villagers
me either and yet it says there are three people in there.
You are one of the people it says are there to me, plus Dirty and Seven.
We were the three online last night when it crashed.
It Lies!!!
yup
Hoppers are cool BTW.
i wanna play... 8(
maybe we need you number to text you when crap like this is happening
Sorry guys, I just restarted it.
Ditto!
Kicked again, 9:37, almost exact same time as last night
I couldn't get back in, but honestly, I only tried a couple times.
I got in this morning about 5:40am. Worked fine.
okay, I've built 95% of a iron golem harvester, I need to get two villagers from the compound iinto it, the pocket of which I haven't built yet.
I guess I'm going to do something with minecarts/track and ship 'em over to it somehow?
Any suggestions? Just need to get two over and into a slot on the outside of the contraption.

I've seen videos of using minecarts to move villagers. You might be able to do that.
Yes, a last resort, but I have made up some track and such, and it's on standby in the "project" chest on site.
If I can get a couple of them inside the walls, I think a temporary water elevator may be the answer.

Just ran a track and pushed em in, had to be gentle as the golems were watching. 2 1/2 villagers in the pocket!
Servers a bit funky though.

Found a mine, gonna gather up some track and try not to get lost...
Golem spawner is horrendously slow...but it does work.
