             Graphical Uncensoring
          Version 1.0, February 03 2024

     General Info:


This patch for the NES US version of Dragon Warrior IV uncensors all the
graphics that were censored by reverting them to their Japanese counterparts.
Full list of changes:

- Restores the cross on Cristo's hat
- Restores the priests NPC
- Restores the cross tiles related to the churches
- Restores the tombstones to their original crosses
- Restores dead party members to coffins rather than ghosts
- Restores the cross logo next to the name of dead characters
- Restores the overworld tile  for shrines
- Restores the cross at the Royal Crypt
- Restores the bunny girls NPC
- Restores Vivian (bunny girl enemy)

It is a graphical hack only and as such text remains untouched. 
Therefore all text censoring related to religion or sex are still censored.
I do not speak Japanese so I am not the best person suited to take care of this,
but I would welcome someone else making either an update to this hack or an addendum.
There is a text editor for the game on RHDN if you can figure out how to work with it.
