Recyclable Glass

by daenvil

Recyclable Glass lets players craft and smelt glass items back into other glass items through new recipes added to the crafting table and furnace.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.21.5 – 26.3

What it does

The mod adds recipes that turn glass blocks, panes, bottles and dyed glass into one another. A crafting table recipe converts one glass block into six glass panes, and a smelting recipe turns undyed glass into tinted glass when dyed glass is used as the input. Tinted glass can be crafted from a dyed glass block instead of an undyed one, and dyed glass panes can be made from undyed glass panes.

Recipes are added as a data pack, so the mod needs no client-side code. Only the server needs it to supply the recipes, while players may install it to see the same recipes in their own game. Files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 12 release versions, 1.21.5 – 26.3, and the code is licensed as All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Glass recycling recipes

    New crafting and smelting recipes let glass items be converted back into other glass items.

  2. Tinted glass from dyed glass

    Tinted glass can be made from a dyed glass block in place of an undyed one, through a smelting furnace recipe.

  3. Dyed glass panes

    Dyed glass panes can be crafted from undyed glass panes, giving a colored option from plain stock.

  4. Recipe diagram

    A diagram lists the new recipes with green arrows and the vanilla recipes with red arrows, so players can compare them.

Questions

Does Recyclable Glass need to be installed on the client?

No. Only the server has to run the mod for its recipes to apply, and a player may install it too, but neither side is required to have it on the client.

Is Recyclable Glass available as a data pack?

Yes. The mod is also available for data pack servers, which is how its recipes are added.
