I have the same situation as nattytom501, and my friend does as well, and the fix suggested by Backplague didn't fix it. Basically if i start a world in Tekkit, it has only a few mods (like zooming in) are engaged, but nothing like Industrial Craft, BuildCraft or Equivalent Exchange. Also, when I try to join my server it says I need basically every mod in Tekkit to join, so it seems none are recognized. The server console window says I attempted to join with the following:
CodeChickenCore 0.5.2
MineCraftForge 3.1.3.107
NotEnoughItems 1.2.2
My friend's situation is almost identical, so yes, any ideas would be appreciated.
EDIT: I tried DeathxxAngelXX's idea of clearing the cache, and deleting the .techniclauncher, but it did not fix the problem. For the record, I am also using the recommended builds.
