It would seem that recipes are missing, or a mod conflict.

1st Official Post

    I am running the mods:


    modloader
    forge
    recipe book (When I found the recipes were not working I found black pages in here.)
    too many items (Which I used to confirm all the items were really there.)
    Ic2
    Buildcraft



    I found ores in the ground like copper and tin, so I can say the mod kind of works with the others. I did not install modloadermp.

    The Recipes are there, but the Recipebook CANNOT SHOW THEM, you better use NEI (Not Enough Items), so you can dump Recipebook and TMI at once.

    I forgot to mention that the recipes do not work in the crafting table either, and I have no clue what your talking about.
