Chaos;Head Noah (stylized as ChäoS;HEAd NoAH) is an updated rerelease of Chaos;Head, a 2008 visual novel by Nitro+ and 5pb. This version includes six new endings that were not present in the original; one for every main heroine. However, while the original version was only available on PC, the updated version was available on practically every platform but PC.
We at the Committee of Zero intend to change that.
The original Chaos;Head was translated on TLWiki years ago. We intend to build on this work, but heavily revise it and edit it as to match our writing style. Please bear in mind that we are not associated with TLWiki's team in any way, and this project is not related to their own abandoned Noah port and translation.
Staff
We are currently in need of:
A translator with some amount of past experience and the availability and diligence to make steady progress over a few months to a year.
Our core Noah team consists of:
Engine Reimplementation for PC: SomeAnon, DrDaxxy
Translator: [RECRUITING]
TL Checker: SnowedEarth
Editor: Kumin, Discontinuous Qualia
CG Editor: Cypert
Keep in mind that this list does not include everyone in the Committee of Zero. We have many members, including those who have done... zero work.
Progress
At the moment, not much work on the translation itself has been done. We've set up the basic workflow and are putting together an organization system, so once we finish our current side project, we should be all set and ready to jump on translation work no later than the start of the new year (assuming we find a translator by then).
However, what this project currently lacks in translation work, it makes up for in porting work. Our technical team is building a complete reimplementation for PC of the N2System engine that the Xbox version of Noah runs on, and we've made substantial progress. Right now, the engine is capable of reading and interpreting the game's scripts (though it currently only displays backgrounds and plays in-game audio - nothing to show off yet).
Notes
By the way, SciADV fans may be interested to hear that we recently released a patch for the Steam version of STEINS;GATE fixing many of that version's shortcomings. We don't feel this warrants a Fuwa thread on its own, but we wanted to mention it.
The port will likely be finished before the translation, and once that happens, we plan to release it, so Japanese speakers can read the VN on PC.
If you're interested, and think you can help, then aside from this thread and my PMs, the best places to contact us are via e-mail at
