Clean & Clear Glass (C&CG)
Clean & Clear Glass is a client-side visual mod that makes vanilla glass blocks and glass panes look cleaner, clearer, and visually connected.
The mod keeps the original vanilla blocks and items while changing how they are rendered on the client.

| 26.1+ | Available | Available |
| 1.21.11 | Available | Available |
| 1.21.1 | Available | Available |
| 1.20.1 | Available | N/A |
| 1.16.5 | Available | N/A |
These are standalone mod editions, not resource-pack editions.
Features
- Connected rendering for glass blocks and glass panes
- Clear and Subtle styles for Regular Glass
- Subtle, Visible, and Clear styles for Tinted Glass on supported Minecraft versions
- Support for every stained glass color
- Clean outer borders with hidden connected internal borders

Regular Glass Styles

Tinted Glass Styles
Tinted glass provides three visual styles on Minecraft versions that include tinted glass. Its block and item appearance follow the selected style.
| Subtle Tinted Glass (Default) | Visible Tinted Glass | Clear Tinted Glass |
|---|---|---|
| Uses subtle white marks to keep the tinted glass recognizable without making the surface too busy. | Uses stronger visible white marks so tinted glass is easier to recognize. | Removes the white marks for the cleanest view, but may look closer to black stained glass. |

Settings
Open the Clean & Clear Glass settings screen with:
Alt + G
The key can be changed from:
Options > Controls > Key Binds
Fabric users can also open the settings through Mod Menu when it is installed.
Available settings include:
- Turn Clean & Clear Glass rendering ON or OFF
- Select Clear or Subtle for Regular Glass
- Select Subtle, Visible, or Clear for Tinted Glass on supported versions
Clear is the default Regular Glass style. Subtle is the default Tinted Glass style.

Compatibility
Clean & Clear Glass implements its connected rendering directly. It does not depend on a separate connected-texture mod.
- Fabric API: Required only for Fabric releases
- Mod Menu: Optional on Fabric
- Sodium: Optional and supported
- Iris: Optional and supported
- Indium: Not required
- Continuity or CTM: Not required
- OptiFine: Not required
Legacy Sodium Support
The Fabric editions for Minecraft 1.16.5 and 1.20.1 include dedicated compatibility rendering for their older Sodium versions:
- Minecraft 1.16.5: Designed for Sodium 0.2.0
- Minecraft 1.20.1: Designed for Sodium 0.5.13
This allows connected glass to work with Fabric API and Sodium without requiring Indium, Continuity, or another CTM implementation.
Other Sodium versions on these legacy Minecraft releases are not guaranteed to be compatible. Shader-pack behavior may also vary by Minecraft version, Sodium version, and shader pack.
Installation
| Fabric | NeoForge |
|---|---|
|
|
Files are loader-specific: do not install a Fabric file into NeoForge or a NeoForge file into Fabric. Clean & Clear Glass only needs to be installed on the client.
Resource Pack Alternatives
If you prefer vanilla Minecraft without Fabric, NeoForge, OptiFine, or another mod, try my Glass Without Border resource pack. It works as a standard vanilla resource pack and removes visible borders from glass.
For older or unsupported Minecraft versions, the original Clean & Clear Glass resource pack is also available. Its connected-glass features require OptiFine.
For the supported versions listed above, use the standalone mod from this page instead.
