In my regular Minecraft survival world (1.17.30), I want to know if there is a way to make only certain mobs make no sound or only some sounds.

Example 1: A creeper would not hiss when charging but would still make a boom sound when exploding.

Example 2: A pig never oinks but a chicken still clucks.

    One approach would be to use the regular modding techniques to replace those sound files with empty sounds.

    Maybe the Silent tag is what you are searching for? Add it to a mob and it will be completely silent. Not tested with the creeper explosion

  • The "silent" tag is a mod or plugin, it is not in vanilla Minecraft

The only way to achieve this in vanilla Minecraft would be to use a texture pack that replaces the .ogg sound files of the noises you want to silence with empty sound files so that you cannot hear them.

  • Note that this wouldn't affect closed captioning.

  • Some texture packs appear to rewrite the closed captions, perhaps they could be left as empty strings?
