Glassmaking and Glazing
This mod adds glassmaking and glazed ceramics as a whole new late-game mechanic. You can also create glowing glass that emits light and can be chiseled.
You can create glasscolor mixes (called Frit) by pulverizing ingredients, then grinding, sintering and grinding again. With these done, mix and smelt colored glass. You can craft new glass colors and all types of colored glass including new types like quartz, smoky, milky, dark or opaque glass.
Or create two kinds of colored glazes (clear/milky), and glaze bricks, bowls, flowerpots and planters with these in 15 different color variations.
Glazed planters and flowerpots can be decorated with an optional pattern, two versions (checker/lines) are available.
Making glass and glazes does involve automation and lots of resources and time, but the results will be really worth it.
The handbook has a new guide that will teach you all about glass colors and glazing.
Luminous Glass
Create glowing glass in different colors and brightness levels. These blocks emit light and can be chiseled.
Colored Clay
Create clay items in new colors, create clay tiles or create colorful planters, flower pots, storage vessels, crocks, watercans or mugs from it.
Porcelain
An even finer variant of clay, comes in seven beautiful colors - craft some truly special pottery items. Porcelain items often hold more portions than clay variants.
Chisel Glass
All glass types and glass colors can be chiseled, even luminous glass.
New Tiles & Panes
Craft tiles made from stone, clay or porcelain, or glass and attach them to flat surfaces to decorate your world. Alternatively, build full blocks from these these.
New Items & Uses
