ah yes, the "fog of war" styled map contacts. I really thought it was a cool idea. Most seem to like it, some don't. But thats ok, everyones taste is a little different.
In the data/sea directory there are DDS files which contain the graphic that the game uses on the nav map. (see FAQ in support directory) I changed them all to be little black dots so you couldnt gain heading/course by a simple glance at the map. (not to mention sensor information which is sort of a cheat). Anyway, so you have to track them a little now, to gain that info. No tremendous big deal, just observe the target, place a mark, observe him again, place another mark, then draw a line connecting the two marks.
Anyway, just remove these DDS files from the mod (disabeling it first of course), and you should have the stock map icons back. be warned however, some ships in the data/sea directory are NEW ships, so there isnt a stock icon listed for them in the default installation. So by removing the graphic on these ships, you will have no map icon at all.
