Possible! I was looking at my youtube subscriptions and saw this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oASYNT0Xdus
this is only about the second trap shown in the video! This is a functional pigman farm that you can "easily" make [requires almost a full double-chest of obsidian]

Re: Zombie Pigman Spawner
While that is an impressive display, that's also a massive performance drain machine. I'm pretty sure trying to load that would crush this computer. I actually like to use portals, so screwing around like this would screw up my travel network.
FlowerChild intends to disable zombie pigmen spawning from portals, so this won't work in 1.3 with BTW.

The fact that Mohjang don't like farms they will find a solution for this kind of exploit ;)Mr. B wrote:While that is an impressive display, that's also a massive performance drain machine.

Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative

actually, the second machine shown [the scaled down version] is not that performance draining unless it is left in a loaded chunk without the entities being killedMr. B wrote:While that is an impressive display, that's also a massive performance drain machine.

Re: Zombie Pigman Spawner
Time/Reward-wise I don't think an overworld pigman farm is that good.
Even after you collect all the obsidian which could take an age, even casting it will take a long time, it's not worth the effort.
Still, it would look pretty cool.
