Connected Glass Ceiling

Author: ScarForges
Version: 1.0.0

Connected Glass Ceiling adds glass floor and ceiling panels that automatically merge into seamless transparent surfaces when placed next to each other.

No ugly borders between panels, no visible seams — just clean connected glass for modern builds, skylights, transparent floors, and large panoramic ceilings.

Features

• Automatic connected textures/models
• Seamless joins between adjacent panels
• Works in all 6 directions
• Great for glass floors, ceilings, skylights, and vertical glass structures
• Clean framed edges on the outside, clear glass in the middle

When a panel is placed alone, it appears as a full framed piece.
When another panel is placed next to it, the touching borders disappear automatically, creating one continuous glass surface.

How it works

This mod uses a connected block template system that checks neighboring blocks and swaps the model automatically depending on the surrounding layout.

That means you only place one main block, while the game handles the correct connected variant behind the scenes.

The system supports:

• edges
• corners
• center pieces
• horizontal connections
• vertical connections

This allows large connected glass surfaces to look smooth and consistent without manual setup.

Recipe

Installation

1. Place the ConnectedGlassCeiling folder in your Hytale server mods directory
2. Restart the server
3. Find the block in-game as Connected Glass Ceiling

For modders

This project includes:

• custom .blockymodel variants
• a connected block template
• grouped connected block definitions
• parent-based block inheritance
• language files
• editable recipes

If you want to use this mod as a base for your own connected glass project, you can inspect, modify, and adapt the included files however you like.

Because the mod is distributed as a .zip, you can easily open it and change the recipe to fit your own modpack, server, or progression system.

By default, the current recipe setup is based on Macaw's Hy Windows, so you will need that mod installed if you want to use the included recipe without changes.

If you do not want to depend on that mod, you can simply edit the recipe files and replace it with any ingredients you prefer.

Notes

• Designed for builders and decorative-focused players
• Great for modern houses, skylights, glass floors, and transparent ceilings
• The recipe is fully customizable
• Intended to be simple to install and easy to modify
