Sorry to seem dense, but I'm not as fluent with the mods as many here are. If someone could explain this I would appreciate it. I guess I need to get into a few encounters too to help understand the changes.
I took it to mean that there are new ships included with the mod that you won't find in the regular game. So, there are no red sillouttes created for these new ships - there never were, just "blobs." Therefore, if you delete all of the dds files, you will lose all "blobs" for said ships and you won't be able to see them on the map, assuming you have map update enabled.
