Open Peripheral Bridge not detected

Hey guys, so i've been trying to code and use the Open Peripheral's Terminal Glass Bridge and its glasses. However, whenever i try and do so, nothing with the peripheral, not even an error.
I made sure of the exact spot and yet it still has no effect.
I am currently using the infinity modpack of ftb, if the need arise.
When i use a premade program, pretty much any premade program, one example i used was redglass and the googleglass, it had no effect. Stating that the terminal bridge was missing.

bridge = peripheral.wrap("back") – or any of the sides
bridge.addBox(5,5,70,10,0xFFFFFFF,.02)

I have never used the terminal bridge myself, so the best I can do is direct you to the FTB Wiki:

Is that "your" code, or the "premade" code?

The code i posted is my code, premade code is ones such as red glass and google glass addon, which i do not feel would be a good idea to spam an entirety of a page with. I have followed all the information on the ftb wiki to the letter, even using the "premade" copy and paste code in that also. Nothing worked. I did edit the side in which the peripheral bridge was on to its correct location, so there was no problem there. Yet, i have not seen an interface work at all, the code is properly displayed and changed whenever i right click on the terminal and wear the glasses, so i don't really understand.

You didn't really say in your original post if other people's programs work.
Do they?


Never mind, I missed where you said they didn't work.
Check Youtube maybe? Other than that I can't help, I don't have my computer to test on right now.

Also, use can put code on www.pastebin.com, then put a link to the paste here, or use code and spoiler tags on the forums:
[.CODE]
[./CODE]
and
[.SPOILER]
[./SPOILER]
(Without the period in them)

So, im not sure if its a glitch or not as no one has managed to respond to this. But perhaps a moderator could move this to bugs and glitches if so.

If it were a glitch in the mod, then you'd be reporting that over at the OpenMods github, not here.

OpenPeripheral is a funny old beast, and its functions tend to change between builds. Beats me what they're like with your setup, as the relevant documentation for you is only available to those using the same build as you.

To see the functions the bridge is offering, type into the command prompt:

openp/docs <side>

Eg, if the bridge is placed behind the computer:

openp/docs back

To see how to properly use each function, you'd then type:

openp/docs <side> <function>

I am experiencing the same issue. I have not been able to get any code, my own or from the wiki, to get any sort of detectable effect from the glasses, be it box or text. Considering the trouble I had with the getTankInfo() method the last 2 weeks I am not surprised this is causing me some trouble also. I'll keep working on it and report back if I have any luck.

Did you make sure you bound the glasses to the bridge?

I did get a linking key for the glasses after attempting a binding, so I believe that I did successfully like them. It also automatically put them on for me, which would suggest success.
Does that sound right?

When i did it, the same thing occured, however, there was no visible changes to my screen, and yet the computer was not crashing or anything, so i could assume that the program was running, but that something was wrong with it.
