Progressing well with the chants
Hi everyone! just thought I'd provide an update on the work that I'm doing with the chants.
The first thing which I'm glad to say is that I'm making great progress. Over the last number of weeks I've been scouring YouTube for everything Serie A, primarily the 20 current season teams. It's been a long process especially when I have no idea of what the actual chants are saying haha other than when I find the ones that mention the team name which does help.
To explain the process to give a bit of insight, from listening to all the chants that I was able to find I immediately passed on the low quality or small lengths, any that couldn't be made to be a full chant. A lot is this is my own judgement especially as the source can vary wildly. The majority of YouTube chants can be ruined by close singing, moving around, even wind or other noises. So hoping that the chants are unaffected by these is key.
So from all of this I've been able to source 143 videos from YouTube related to the 20 Serie A teams that were of good quality. Bare in mind many of the videos have multiple chants, the chant number is much higher.
Today I've started editing the chants and encorporate into the pack. Atalanta was the first team and from 7 sourced videos I was then able to build 11 chants. After cross checking against the existing 8 chants in the pack I was able to replace 2 of those and add an additional 6. The remaining were already in the pack. So now, Atalanta have gone from having 8 chants to 14 chants. I nice addition and the kind I hope to do for the rest of the 19 teams in Serie A.
So I hope this gives insight into the progress. Chant work is usually the one pack that takes alot more effort compared to my other packs so sometimes needs more time to get good results.
I hope to get through the remaining 19 teams in no time and will have a new update very soon.
Thanks for now!

Hi, a while ago I sent you some chants for Inter on evoweb. I hope you find them useful :)
Hi Fabrizio Sella, I actually just replied to you on Evo Web. Yes the three videos you provided have certainly helped though the 3rd one I wasn't able to use due to the very close camera man singing so that ruins any stadium effect applied to the chant. But the other 2 have been very usable. Based on these and the others that I've found on YouTube I've doubled Inter's chants to 16 from 8. So the work has definitely been beneficial. Hopefully everyone likes the additions.
good work pred u are amazing. I have a question i think its unrelated to chants, when the away team scores u can barely hear anything i know its supposed to be more quiet but its actually completely nothing and its a bit unrealistic, also when the home team scores its not so loud how its normally in real life, could u ever look into this?
Hi Nolird uilzaf!, thankyou for posting. I'm always happy to answer questions. The away goal chant issue is certainly an issue with the recent PES releases that didn't happen with the older PES games. It's an annoyance that I've yet to work out what is the direct cause. When I get quiet moments I do try and investigate but I've yet to get the answer, once I do I will definitely fix it. In terms of goal crowd sound I've purposely not made a pack for this as there are releases on the Evo Web forum that have lua modules that do just this so I don't want to step on peoples toes and make an alternate pack. Depending on the league the goal crowd sound can be different and also louder.
