For the fabric version, go here.
Several mods, such as Extra Utilities, add a bunch of cool glasses to your game. Like glass that you can see through but blocks light or glass that emits light.
Have you ever wanted to get that cool stuff, but without all the overhead of putting a major content mod in your modpack? Well look no further than Glassential.
Currently adds the following glasses, with more planned:
- Luminous Glass: emits light, just like Glowstone.
- Redstone Glass: emits a strong redstone signal, just like a Block of Redstone.
- Dark Glass: doesn't let actual light go through, ideal for mob farms.
- Ghostly Glass: non-solid to all entities of any kind.
- Ethereal Glass: non-solid to all sneaking players/entities.
- Reverse Ethereal Glass: only solid to sneaking players/entities (and fluids).
- Dark Ethereal Glass: the properties of both Dark Glass and Ethereal Glass.
- Dark Reverse Ethereal Glass: the properties of both Dark Glass and Reverse Ethereal Glass.
1.12.2 info:
Currently adds the following glasses, with more planned:
- Clear Glass: just a clean textured glass.
- Luminous Glass: emits light, just like Glowstone.
- Redstone Glass: emits a strong redstone signal, just like a Block of Redstone.
- Dark Glass: doesn't let actual light go through, ideal for mob farms.
- Ghostly Glass: non-solid to all entities of any kind.
- Ethereal Glass: non-solid to players, perfect for doorways.
- Reverse Ethereal Glass: non-solid to non-player entities, perfect for floors.
Additionally it also adds the Glass Cutter, which is like Shears but for glass blocks of any kind. It can pick up placed glass as if it had silk touch.
All items and glasses can be individually disabled in the config, if you don't want all of them or you already have other mods adding some. Glasses are also all fully compatible with ConnectedTexturesMod (which I highly recommend).
Mod spotlight by Trikzon (outdated):
You can find me in the MMD Discord server.
will the glass cutter be added to 1.14.4?
In reply to feyarts:
Someone didn't read the changelog carefully. Yes at a later date.
In reply to Lykrast:
owh sorry, yep totally didn't read them. first time downloading your mod. you got an awesome mod here :)
I guess I won't need G*bber then huh? huhuhu...well this looks cool, wish CTM update to latest version of minecraft unless there is a replace mod that idk about do tell.
Couple ideas. Would it be possible to make variations of these blocks that would act like normal glass if a redstone signal was applied? It might be useful if these could be switched on or off.
Also, in that line of thought, glass that changes color or transparency level according to redstone signal? Possibly even a block that could cycle through all (or most) of the colors according to signal strength?
The glass added by this mod doesn't appear to work with Chisels & Bits
Any plans for panes? And if so please make them compatible with the "Horizontal Glass Panes" mod or make them so they can be flipped horizontally.
Btw, excellent work, love it, I and many others appreciate your work.
In reply to lsi5974:
I didn't have a plan for panes but if you want I'll see what I can do when I get back to that mod.
I suggest you make an issue on the issue tracker with a link to the mod you're referring so it's easier to remember and you can know when it's done.
Swwwwweeeeeet. Can you please try (if not thats okay) to make 1.14?
Nice mod. Would you consider adding Ethereal Dark Glass? Mob farms need doorways too, sometimes.
Hi,
cool mod but the Ethereal Glass and the Reverse Ethereal Glass looks not one to one the same texture. The one have 2 lines and the other glass have 3 lines. and the Ghostly Glass have the same functions of the 2 other new glasses.
In reply to titoo889910725:
Ghostly glass is for those times where you want glass looking stuff there but don't want to stop anything.
In reply to titoo889910725:
Ethereal and reverse ethereal having different textures is intended, as they are basically opposite to each other.
Ghostly in fact doesn't have the same function as the ethereal glasses, if you read closely you'll see it allows both players and non players to go through.
This is super neat! I love it! 💙
I'm here at the release day and the download count says 69... I'm willing to change that
Hi,
cool mod and the glass blocks looks good and work. Please make more :D
