This is not exactly the mod you refer to ("Realistic contacts with sub icons") and I couldn't locate that one. Buy I suspect they are basically the same mod, by Mikhayl. If so, the mod is doing just what it is supposed to do, and nothing is showing up on your map. This makes finding targets a lot harder, as you are experiencing. Try removing that mod and see if the contact appear on your map. If so, you will have to choose between more realism and more in-game action. Whichever you choose, remember: "If you're having fun, even if everyone else says you're doing it wrong, you're doing it right."

Good luck and good hunting!

UPDATE: I just checked. "Realistic contacts with sub icons" is the same mod (but with sub icons retained). It is distributed in the same 7Zip file as "Realistic contacts for SH3" and the same readme, quoted above, applies to both. So that's the reason for the missing map contacts. As they say, it's a feature. :-)

Learn something new everyday BW. Great post. I may try this out.
