What's the proper way to update NEI?

[djmulder]

Hey folks,

Me again. So I want to update NEI but the moment I start-up with the new JAR, my NEI is empty. So what went wrong does anyone know?

 

[xTordX]

What do you mean it's empty? You have it installed but it looks like it's not there? If that's the case press "o" in the inventory screen.
If not, please give some more information.

 

[djmulder]

It's there (I used o) ... but there's 0 items in it

 

[xTordX]

So you see the GUI but there's no item on the right.
1. Check the search bar
2. Check the selected mods at the top
3. If that doesen't work it has been reported as a bug in past versions.

 

[djmulder]

Hmm so yeh I guess I've installed it properly.. I'll check the bug reports.

 

[xTordX]

What version are you using?

 

[djmulder]

right now I'm using 1.0.3.62

I tried updating to the latest: 1.0.4.83

I did also update the other chickenbones mods (reverted them too when NEI stopped working)

 

[xTordX]

Including the core?

 

[djmulder]

yup

 

[xTordX]

Umm... I have a pack. Sorry i'm on mobile so i can't check the version atm but if you really want you can check it yourself:

[djmulder]

3.78

Could it be that I'm on a new branch or something? seeing I have 4. something (83)

 

[xTordX]

I'll google some stuff. Also, are you relatively new to modding?

 

[djmulder]

To modding yes, but I do get the concept (coder myself)

I tried googling.. but most results come back to "have you tried pressing O"

 

[djmulder]

I'll try your version in a sec... making endoflames atm after that! (20 left)

 

[xTordX]

Hehe yeah because that's a common mistake
I see they jumped from 3.7 to 4.7
Usually the first versions from a branch are extremely buggy. Try getting mine.

 

[djmulder]

yeh yours seems to work.. let's hope it fixes the bug where NEI suddenly stops accepting searches and you have to restart the game

 

[xTordX]

Been playing for a while. Didn't happen. So far i think this is the most stable version. What does 4.x add new anyways?

 

[djmulder]

heh to be honest, no clue was frustrated that NEI kept having that bug I mentioned... so wanted to update to newest to see if it was fixed

 

[xTordX]

Since i gave you the pack anyways, care to give me some feedback?

 

[djmulder]

judging by the addons I see in them, it looks good. I see no big reactors tho haha.. such an awesome mod
