Ok so I went on the IRC and they gave me a new piece of code but that doesn't work either for some reason. In a nutshell when I start the game and then exit it go into the config file and change the ID for my ore then start it up again and make a world then I hit E for inv in the creative menu and NEI both of them say the ID it writes to the file but not what I change it to in the file like it should. Like if you change the ID in redpower it will also change ingame mine won't do that in the creative menu or NEI.

Yup tried that tut. Still doesn't change the ID when I mouse over it in NEI or the creative menu.

It works fine. Make sure you read it correctly. Look at the completed file on the tutorial page.

Yup. If I follow that then reobfu it then go ingame on my mc leitn with NEI installed both NEI and the creative menu show what the default id is not whats set in the config file.

your code from pastebin is not correct try reading some tutorials.

Do you have any suggestions? Because I did follow the forge tut and some others I could find exactly and it refuses to work.

Did you run config.load()?

Welp found the problem............... I had a huge derp. I only found it because I had to cleanup and redo my workspace in mcp.
