I noticed a lot people on IRC and other places are having issues with recipes. This is a known bug with most of the locals. NEI Had updated it's API since 1.6.0.6 and so if you use 1.6.0.7+ And I think it's now 1.6.1.2 then you will not see any recipes even on addons like GregTech.
You can find all the old versions here: http://www.chickenbones.crafts…es/Old_Versions/index.php
Suggested:
NotEnoughItems 1.6.0.6.jar & CodeChickenCore 0.9.0.3.jar
Please also note that when more and more mods start compiling against the latest NEI API that more and more mods might crash for example Applied Energistics rv12.b but rv12.a works just fine.
