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).

1.14.4 info:

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).
