INTRO
This is a hack that replaces the in-game graphics from Iron
Tank (released on the NES in the US) with most of the
graphics from Great Tank (released on the Famicom in Japan).
It restores the swastikas and crosses that were removed from
the US release, and corrects the palettes.

ROM INFORMATION
GoodNES name:
Iron Tank - The Invasion of Normandy (U) [!].nes
CRC32: DCFD85FC

FINAL THOUGHTS
So a guy came onto the romhacking.net forum asking whether
it'd be easier to put the Japanese graphics in the US game,
or the English text in the Japanese game. I said the former,
without doubt. But me being me, I couldn't help but try it
out myself.

It took about an hour, which included doing a file compare
betweem the two in HxD, and copying over all the changed
graphics, while checking them in Tile Molester just to be
sure. There were a lot of tiles that look like they're not
used for anything, so I didn't change those, as there seemed
to be little point.

Once that was done, I watched longplays of both versions to
see what palette changes were needed, and I only spotted
two: flags halfway through, and the final fortress. So I
blasted throuugh the game with the help of invincibility,
and saw the palettes in FCEUX when I got to those two
sections. Once I changed them in the ROM, that was it.

All in all, a very simple hack, and it's got me thinking if
there are any other 'censorship restoration' hacks I can do.
Still, if those swastikas really do it for you, then enjoy
this one!

Tools I used for this translation:
FCEUX (best NES emulator for debugging and hacking)
HxD (general hex editing)
Tile Molester (checking the graphics)
