I just started up the New World 1.5.2 pack, mostly for Millenaire. I'm quarrying out some cobble in a cave near a village and hear a rumbling but distinct explosion. No creeper noises so what do you think it was?

Possibly cave noises?

If your speakers are funky then it might be making the cave noises sound like some kind of gunshot or explosion.

"Rumbling" has "thunder" written all over it.

If it was more of a "bang" explosion then maybe you left a BuildCraft conductive pipe system until it overloaded?

I'm putting my bet on thunder. I had the same thing happen in my base once, and I frantically ran around checking all of my engines and machines - but nothing had blown up. It didn't sound like normal thunder but I concluded that it must have been.

This thunder thing does fit the description. No machines as of yet to blow up. Was not sure if it was something the Millenaire village was doing above me.

I've heard explosions sometimes and never found out why. No rain, no thunder, just a kaboom and a very confused me.

Lightning (and thus thunder) without rainstorms is certainly explainable by thaumcraft, even if you didn't do anything with it yet: There's probably just a dark/unstable node nearby.

If lightning strikes near you it plays the TNT explosion sound.

You probably heard that, and didn't notice the thunder sound that goes along with it.

I think it could be from the Falling Meteors mod? I had one land near my village, but I don't remember hearing anything.

It is from Falling Meteors. I just saw it blowing up when I came up from the mine. Heard the explosion a second later. I am really liking New World.
