rednet.open() crashing computers/turtles

Every time rednet.open() tries to open a modem on a computer or turtle, I get "rednet:277: rendet:297: rednet:219: Expected number"

I've tried to put it in a program and through lua with rednet.open("side the modem is on"), but get that every time.

If I try it on a side without a modem, it brings me back to prompt, but then I put a modem on that side and it immediately spits out "parallel:22: rendet:303: rednet:219: Expected number"

I've reloaded the world, rebooted minecraft, and force updated the addons. I'm running the Mindcrack pack on Feed The Beast. (Computer craft 1.5 w/ Misc Peripherals 3.1

Note: my computers on my server (run from the same machine and using the same pack) operate just fine.

How are you spelling the side?
It might be case sensitive, I've never had any problems with it.

Here are your options:

rednet.open("left")
rednet.open("right")
rednet.open("up")
rednet.open("down")
rednet.open("front")
rednet.open("back")

Choose one, copy and paste it exactly, any luck?

i'm spelling them properly. I even copy+pasted from my server program and it still has the same issue. It's not syntax or spelling.

How do you have CC installed? It sounds like you're using an old rednet API with the new wireless channels. Please tell me what you have in your mods folder ComputerCraft related.

I'm using the FTB Mindcrack pack. I know it comes with Misc Periph, but it also says MP has one child addon too that I can't find.

Here's my mod folder contents:

Don't be a retard. Oh wait, appears you can't help it. My bad.

Except that on my server it works fine. It's in my single player worlds that it's broken.

because the files are screwed up on your client, just delete/rename the cc folder in your client and you sould be good

Already tried that. Clean install, new world, etc.

At this point it seems like FTB is at fault. Take it up with them.

Hence why I don't use modpacks. Downloading the mods yourself is better, unless the server has different id's.
