I downloaded NEI for Minecraft 1.6.4. For some reason, it will not stop acting like Recipe mode! I don't mean "I cant change it," because I can. But no matter what I do, it seems stuck on Recipe Mode! I tried deleting and then changing the configs, I have tried absolutely everything I can think of. I just want to use the enchant thingy! Can anyone help?

It will be disabled in the config file.

1. Go to the config folder probably %appdata%/.minecraft/config
2. Then find NEI.cfg and open it (notepad can do it)
3. Edit the line that says lockmode=0 to lockmode=-1

This should allow you to go in to cheat mode. this config is mainly there for people like me who cant help them self s for spawning lost items in.

I suspect that if this is a mod pack then the settings will be in user mode but the main setting are set in global,

Open the NEI setting by pressing E then click options in the bottom left then click inventory. you will get a screen like this.

in the top right there will be a button you need to make sure this says global before making any changes to the settings so that they apply to the game as a whole.

Hope this helps. this is the case with most mod packs.

(Note: If the "W" boxes are ticked, they will override global settings, which can be confusing if you were unaware an override was active, so be sure to check for this as well.)
