Seamless Glass Textures

I personally prefer the new glass texture in snapshot 18w43c (and the two previous snapshots), as it's much easier to look through than the old texture Still, I think it could go one step further.

When you place multiple glass blocks/panes next to each other, it looks a bit odd since each block has it's own individual white outline. I personally think that glass should only be outlined on the very outer rim of the whole group, meaning when you place glass side by side, the part of the frame that's in between them disappears.

I did a little edit just to show what I talking about. In my opinion the glass looks much nicer in the edit because of how clean and smooth it is. I think it would look amazing especially on big buildings with larger windows. The example I made was done with panes, but it should really be effective on all types of glass, including the stained variants.

    I think Optifine does this

    I think it should be in default.

    This should definitely be vanilla as default or maybe an option, especially on bedrock where it is impossible even with resource packs and behavior packs.

    This is a great idea like double chests Mabry it could kind of work the same way

    I agree it should be in vanilla versions. I haven't used Optifine since it hasn't updated to 1.15 or 1.16 yet, so I'm just using vanilla version rn; using glass panes do outline doorways looks like a mess.

    This is really needed. The glass texture right now just stands out like a sore thumb.

    This is a must add!!!!!!!!!! My friend and I are building big skyscrapers and we have these huge windows that really lose some of their beauty because of how glass looks together

    I would like this on bedrock, under a "Fancy Glass" toggle or something, since java users can just use optifine, and advancements aren't blocked by mods or anything.

    Yeah. I've been trying to build modern lately, but I'm pretty sure modern glass doesn't look like that... There should also be a toggle for it like somebody else said so if you happened to like the old texture, you could keep it. (By the way, I love the way it looks after editing.)

    This is a great idea, because there are a lot of resource pack doesn't support my Minecraft version, especially the Bedrock Edition. So, while creating this resource pack, don't forget to add it for Minecraft Bedrock Edition 1.16 1.17+. Thank you! I was waiting for this!

    Look I think that mojang should let bedrock players have this because I am very bored looking at glass with a border

    Bedrock player here. The glass borders have always been a bummer. Be it a texture pack, menu toggle, some sort of crouch-placement, however it's done, I'd love to be able to not see the grid. A lot of the minecraft-y building inconveniences I don't really mind, but the glass texture has always just felt like it was in the way.

    Also, of all my experience watching people play minecraft, (which is how I got into it) They almost always just use optifine or something to have connected glass textures, so the grid look of glass doesn't even have much nostalgic value to me.

    If this update is added in the future could it also be on the Bedrock version?

    THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDED! Glass just looks so ugly and it would be cool if there was like a Java features update so that us bedrock and pocket edition players get some of the cool features that Java gets but bedrock doesn’t.
