Solved Config won't apply to server

[jakeNnate]

I've been searching the internet for solutions to this problem but have been unsuccessful, so I decided to try and ask here on the FTB forums. Anyways, I recently downloaded the Ultimate FTB modpack, and the server and it works fine. However, when I change something in the config files it doesn't take effect in game. I make sure the .cfg files are saved, I restart the server, I can go back into the config files and see that I made changes, go into the game and nothing will have changed. Any idea why this would happen? Thank you.

Some mods tend to save/reload while running so it's best to only change the configs when the server isn't running. You also need to keep both the server and client in sync (Well you don't have to but the server'll do stuff that the client doesn't expect and vice versa).
Are the changes you make gameplay wise or actual BlockID's and such?

I do not keep the server running while changing the configs. I am also trying to turn off some of the hard mode stuff on GregTech, not editing item values.

Like Gunther said, make sure your client and server config files match. If you don't match them, NEI will show you the expensive recipe, since your client tells NEI that it uses the hard recipe. Try crafting it with that recipe, you will see that it doesnt let you craft it because it is not the actual recipe. Once you change the client-side config you should see the right recipes.

Thanks, that was my problem, my client wasn't matched up with the server. But that leads me to another question, would other's also need to change their client config so that the recipes in NEI would match with the actual recipes?

Yes, they will have to do the same thing, otherwise they will not be able to craft the machines either.
