2. Select the model that you want to apply the shader to, and click 'Set Effect'.

Tips
-Glass requires you to turn of self shadow on the asset that you wish to apply it to.
-Glass creates a false reflection on the model by applying a texture of MMD's 'stage01' to the model. This can be changed by switching the .dds texture in the Glass folder.
-According to Dance InterventionP, Glass originated as an AMD RenderMonkey sample, which was converted over to MMD.
