THIS PORT IS UNRELATED TO Committee of Zero's PORT
I ported Chaos;Head NoAH to PC, there is a catch though (a few, but more on that later); the game only runs at 576p. This is because the 16:9 versions of the engine the game runs on (N2) only support 1024×576 (the Xbox 360 version of the engine is the only version that runs at 1280×720), changing the internal resolution of the executable, while not technically impossible, is a task that is so hard to achieve that it might as well be. The aim of this port is to recreate the Xbox 360 version of NoAH, but on PC at 576p. We got as close as we possibly could to this goal however, there are still some minor issues because of how cursed this engine is.
I would also like to give massive thanks to DVN for helping me with this project, if it weren't for him this project would've died a long time ago.
The port is distributed in xdelta files that you apply to the original Xbox 360 files. I may make xdelta files for the PS3 version at some point in the future.

To apply this quickfix, just patch your original 360 nss.npa and bgm.afs and copy the newly generated nss.npa and sound.7z files (make sure to extract the sound.7z archive like you did in the initial install) to your NoAH SD install directory.

I would also like to apologize if this post seems amateurish, this is my first time making a proper forum thread for a project. Also, we aren't really a team so don't expect another port/release from us (this specific group of people).
