If, as I think, you mean the blue & red contact markers on the nav map with direction tails, the solution would be to temporarily disable the mod and remove following items from the mod:

data\menu\gui/contline.dds
data\menu/\gui/Dashline.dds

The above should bring back everything except the ship silhuettes. In order to get the ship silhuettes back, too, go to the data\sea folder, search and delete the *_shp.dds files in each sub folder (I have 144 sub folders, yours may vary).

After the above is done, re-enable the mod, and the stock contact markers should be back.

Additionally, if you want to make sure to also have the stock contact symbols for aircraft, ship destroyed, land contact etc., you can easily make a little mod by making a copy of following folder of the stock game: data\menu\gui\units. Save that folder (with the path) into a new mod folder, say "stock contact marker". Then enable this new mod (stock contact marker\data\menu\gui\units) with JSGME after the big mod, and you should have back all stock contact markers, which however reduces the aspect of increased reality in the big mod.
Thank you very much for your help I will try your first tips and if I fail will try the second. I didn't know where to find this files. Thank you !
