About this Mod

Plenty of mods have their own glass types with connected textures, but only Optifine does it for vanilla, so I made this.

Frequently Asked Questions

Connected Glass server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.7.10). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Connected Glass compatible with forge?

Connected Glass officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.7.10, 1.7.2, 1.6.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Connected Glass – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Connected Glass consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
