Greetings, CTM community! I am making a mod called "Mapmaker's Assistant," which aims to make editing item text, attributes, spawners, etc. more accessible using a simple, ingame interface. As a non-mapmaker myself, I need ideas from experienced mapmakers on what to include. I have already posted a thread on the subject, but not many people took notice of it. So I decided to post here in the hopes of getting a little more attention.
From those pictures, it looks like you've covered most of what people would want from a custom item creator. Seeing as you've mentioned spawners, I've got another boatload of suggestions for you.
-A window similar to the inventory window showing the five slots on the mob (weapon + armor slots.)
-The ability to drop custom items into those slots, regardless of if they should be there (i.e. not restricting armor to go in the armor slots, as mapmakers can use unused slots for extra drops.)
-The ability to modify the drop rates of each slot from that same window, as well as to specify how many items are included in that slot (i.e. 40 bottles of enchanting in the pants slot.)
-Being able to add potion effects to the mob and modify attributes from a similar window.
-Options for making riding mob stacks based on previously configured mobs, as well as support for spawners with multiple possibilities.
And if you can make all of this ingame, you'll be a freaking wizard and us mapmakers will love you forever.
I've probably missed something, but those are the main features I'd really like to see included. They would de-complicate spawner creation immensely, and greatly help those of us who hate wrestling with NBTedit for our 1.6 spawners.

I'm planning to include all of those features. Having everything on one GUI screen might be a bit difficult, but I'll try to get the equipment, name, and drop chances all in one.

Looking for a CTM map, you say? Just click on the banner and look no further!
I'll start with this: I'm not just going to say "PAGE GET" in some fancy color to show off in front of everyone. I mean, it really wasn't me who "got this page", but rather all of us who have reached this milestone. Everyone here has contributed to the growth and popularity of this awesome thread, so I'm proud to say we all earned this 500th page together. As a team. Just so everyone gets some recognition, let's see if I can name every person who has posted here a significant number of times:

and of course, Hybbles <3 Oh yeah and that Cameron guy.
I mean, wow, we really have come a long way. As I was going through some earlier posts, looking for people, it really felt like it was just yesterday I was reading some of that stuff. *sniff* We've all really come together as a community, and it's just amazing how much we've done. Let's aim for 1000 pages next!
Sorry if your're still here and I forgot to put you up there! Just say something and I'll add you to the list.
Great post com, very deserving of the 500th page. This thread really has been moving at a fast speed, and I'm glad it's meant a lot to people. Here's to another 500! And the eventual overthrowing of Grand-daddy Vetches' thread. >:P

Yeah, you deserved it. :3 Though the placing in the list doesn't really have anything to do with "who's better" and whatnot. And I agree, the pages really did go fast!
You could have said PAGE GET in super fancy letters with fireworks and such and I would just say "congrats!" but I apperetaite that you took your kindness a step further and involed all of us.
Stupid tiny touch screen. Its so hard to select that huge list and delete it on this puny thing.

Ehh. I'll let it slide, as I've only posted here like twice, but next time there will be bloodshed. (jk)
No, but seriously. 500 pages already? Jeez. I thought we would have moved to another thread by now. *Ba-dum* *crash* All jokes aside, seems quite neat having a thread like this last this long. Hope to see it keep going. Yay for the CTM community and all it's derpy members!
And congrats to all chosen admins!
the windmill looks nice but honestly everything else looks very boring.
