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 players.
- Reverse Ethereal Glass: only solid to players (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.
Glasses are also all fully compatible with ConnectedTexturesMod (which I highly recommend).

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).

Is it possible to update so this is more compatible with
Horizontal Panes - https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/horizontal-panes-forge
and
Pane In The Glass - https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/pane-in-the-glass
Thank you for making this. ^_^
In reply to TheIrishStud:
This has already been suggested but likely will not come any time soon.
Perfect! Just what I was looking for. :)
Downloaded the 1.15.2 version specifically for the clear glass in the video... no clear glass to be found. Much disappoint.
Edit, and it seems the textures aren't connected like in the video either. Sigh.
In reply to Grishord:
-The video is for 1.12.2 and it's even written it's outdated, I have moved it in the 1.12 spoiler to avoid future confusion
-Clear Glass is gone since 1.14 because vanilla glass became clear
-You need CTM for connected textures, which was not available in 1.15.2
I really wanted to try this out, but there does not seem to be a 1.16.1 version.
Ok, I'll be honest here, this *does* seem like a really cool mod, but I was hoping for some sort of sunglasses mod that helps me see the pixelmon rod lure indicators better while using shaders. Anyone know anything like that?
not my type of mod but i will follow just in case i one day decide that this would spark me some joy.
Waiting for 1.16 man!!!
Hello,
Glassential is a great mod, i wonder if i can repost this mod to MCBBS which is the largest Chinese Minecraft forum.I think my friends will llike it.
And , I will not take any credits and i will clearly state this post. Looking forward to your reply and i will be really appreciate if you can give me the premission.
1.16 plz
May I suggest a feature?
Bubble glass, similar to ghostly glass but contains a fluid. This way people could place floating cubes of water without it going everywhere, or if people want walls of lava
Hello! 1.16.1 any time soon? :0
Just wanted to drop in and say thank you for keeping a separate project for forge and fabric. This makes life a lot easier for modpack maintainers.
This is not available with the lastest version of forge for minecraft 1.14
Thanks for your work
Any plans for a kind of glass that can only be placed in creative mod and cannot be broken by people in survival on a server? I have problems creating rooms with bedrock that cannot be broken or escaped - especially with GoProne mod. So I need to cover even some of the 1x1 openings with an unbreakable glass.
Unfortunate that the clear glass was removed. I liked the look of multiple glass pieces looking like one rather than a bunch of separate blocks. Would love for it to be added back.
In reply to MorgFu:
- Vanilla glass is now clear so there was no point to it anymore
- CTM has not been ported yet so connected textures are not possible yet
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.
