Disable Lightning sound

It is possible to make all large echo sounds from lightning in far away locations silent through use of a resource pack.

This can be achieved through the following steps:

  1. Create a folder in your resource packs folder with the name of your choice
  2. Inside your new folder put use a text editor to make a text file containing the text:

    {
        "pack":{
            "pack_format":3,
            "description":"Put whatever you want here"
        }
    }
    

    and save it as the file format: .mcmeta

  3. In the first file you created make another folder inside it called assets
  4. Inside the assets folder make another folder called minecraft
  5. Inside your minecraft folder make another folder called sounds
  6. Inside sounds make a folder called ambient
  7. Inside ambient make weather
  8. Download a .ogg sound which is silent (you can get one here)
  9. Copy and paste 3 silent .ogg noises you downloaded into your weather file
  10. name them thunder1, thunder2 and thunder3

the location of the 3 thunder sounds should be .minecraft\resourcepacks\RESOURCEPACK\assets\minecraft\sounds\ambient\weather\

Now go onto Minecraft and use your resource pack that you made. Now you wont hear any thunder sounds.
