Description

Glassential: Renewed
The classic Glassential, modernized and expanded for 1.21.1+. Decorative and functional glass blocks, doors, trapdoors, slabs and panes — all with full connected textures via Fusion.
Drop it into any pack. No content overhead, no recipes you'll never use — just a clean, focused set of glass blocks that feel like they belong in vanilla.

🪟 Special Glasses
- One Way Glass — see-through from one side, any block you want on the other. Right-click a face with any block to disguise it.
- Tinted One Way Glass — same as above, but blocks light like vanilla tinted glass.
- Clear Fluid Glass — kills underwater fog and hides water faces against the block. Build aquariums and underwater bases that actually look clear.
- Clear Fluid Fake Glass — same, but non-solid to players. Walk straight through.
- Colored Glass / Colored Stained Glass — full RGB picker via the Glassential Brush. Any color, any time.
💡 Functional Glasses
- Luminous Glass — emits light like Glowstone.
- Redstone Glass — emits a full redstone signal.
- Ghostly Glass — non-solid to all entities.
- Ethereal Glass — non-solid to players only.
- Reverse Ethereal Glass — solid only to players (and fluids).
- Gravity Glass — softens falls, no collision.
- Tinted variants of Ethereal and Reverse Ethereal.
- Obsidian Glass — explosion-resistant.
🎨 Decorative
- Stone / Sandstone / Iron Glass — framed decorative glass.
- Ice Glass — slippery, frosty look.
- Lava Lamp / Glowstone Lamp (regular and tinted).
- Glass Slab.
🚪 Doors & Trapdoors
- Modern glass doors and trapdoors that look like vanilla, but glassy.
- A door + trapdoor variant for every functional glass above.
- Dyed stained-glass doors and trapdoors in all 16 colors.
- Wood-themed variants: Oak, Spruce, Birch, Acacia, Jungle, Dark Oak, Mangrove, Cherry, Bamboo, Crimson, Warped, Iron.
🪟 Panes
- Frameless panes for every glass in the mod.
🛠️ Tools
- Glassential Brush — full RGB picker for colored/stained glass. Click to paint.
🧩 Connected Textures
Vanilla glass and stained glass models are replaced by Fusion connecting variants, so they merge with each other and with all Glassential glasses. One consistent look across vanilla and modded.
