How to Craft Glass & Windows in Hytale

Players looking to get glass in Hytale will find the process is different from other sandbox games. It is not possible to craft glass as a standalone block or pane that can be used in building. The game's system is instead focused on creating specific glass-based items through the smelting process. Windows are made through an entirely separate crafting method that does not involve sand or a furnace. This guide provides a complete overview of the steps for making glass bottles and for constructing windows for any structure.

First: Get Glass in Hytale

The only glass item players can currently make is an Empty Potion Bottle. The creation process involves using a Furnace, which itself can be made at a standard Workbench from six tree trunks and six stones. Sand blocks are the main material needed for the bottles, and this resource can be gathered with a pickaxe or shovel in desert biomes, which are shown as large yellow areas on the world map.

• Build a Furnace at a standard Workbench.
• Insert fuel, such as sticks or charcoal, into the Furnace's fuel slot.
• Place any sand block into an input slot.
• Select "Turn On" to begin smelting the sand.

One block of sand produces one Empty Potion Bottle. This item can be placed in the world as a decoration or used for its intended purpose in alchemy once an Alchemist's Workbench has been established. To create transparent views in buildings, players must use the Builder's Workbench to make a window.

Second: Make a Window in Hytale

To make windows, you first need to construct a Builder's Workbench from the pocket crafting menu, a process that requires four tree trunks and three stones. This essential craft guide step is central to most construction projects. I found that after the workbench is placed, inserting any type of wood log into its input slot will show the option to craft windows. The type of log used, whether it is oak or birch, determines the style and color of the finished window frame. The process is designed to provide cosmetic options for builders, with special variants like the Tavern Window requiring a specific resource, Cedar Wood.

While some basic items can be made from the pocket crafting menu, the majority of recipes are tied to specialized stations. The all workbenches list starts with the primary Workbench, which is necessary for crafting other stations like the Armorer’s Workbench, Farmer’s Workbench, and Builder’s Workbench. More advanced crafting becomes available after upgrading the main Workbench to Level 2, which unlocks the Salvager's Workbench, Alchemist's Workbench, and Arcanist's Workbench, requiring materials like Iron Ingots and Gold Ingots.

A functional fast travel network is achievable by crafting and placing teleporters. The teleport guide for this system begins with upgrading the Workbench to Level 2, a step that requires collecting 30 Copper Ingots, 20 Iron Ingots, and 20 Linen Scraps. After the upgrade is complete, players can build the Arcanist's Workbench, where the teleporter recipe is found, requiring stone and materials like Azure Logs and Azure Kelp from the Azure Forest.

Adamantite ore is a high-tier resource located exclusively in the Devastated Lands. To get adamanite, players must travel to this Zone 4 biome, which is represented on the map as a dark, ashen, and volcanic landscape often found past the Winter Frontiers. The ore itself has a distinct reddish color embedded in the dark ground and gray rock. I see it stands out clearly against the gloomy environment, which helps in its discovery.
