ImmersiveThunder-Forged

ImmersiveThunder – Forge Edition

A Forge port of the popular Fabric mod that adds realistic and dynamic thunder sounds to Minecraft based on the player’s distance from lightning strikes.

Features

• Distance-Based Thunder Sounds: Experience realistic thunder that varies based on how far you are from the lightning strike
• Close Thunder (0-64 blocks): Loud, intense thunder when lightning strikes nearby
• Medium Thunder (64-192 blocks): Moderate thunder for strikes at medium distance
• Far Thunder (192+ blocks): Distant rumbling for far-away strikes

• Sound Variety: Multiple sound variations for each distance range to prevent repetitive audio
• 3 close thunder variations
• 4 medium thunder variations
• 3 far thunder variations

• Impact Sounds: Realistic lightning impact sounds complement the thunder
