Default Steel Fury SPM 1.5 Mod Graphic Issue

Hi all-

I tried to get working the SPM 1.5 mod for SF but unfortunately I face a problem I can't solve. The game is running fine but the whole interior sights are completely dark, so you can maybe just see the crosshair. Its impossible to use.
Any tips? Hope for help!

Cheers

Not a bug,

You mean the total lack of interior for the new player tanks? That's not a bug, it's a feature. Until some kind fellow actually does up the interior cockpit models for the new tanks.

Luckily it's still possible to get along with the view from the sights and viewports. The unbuttoned exterior views are also helpful,

Hey.

No I don't mean the new tanks. The interior is there, also the gunsights, but it is so dark you can't use. It must be a bug....

Do you get the same problem without SPM 1.5?

Default SPM 1.5 Bug

Torpedomo It's not clear whether your bug is limited to the gunsight or the entire tank interior???Which tank are you talking about or is it wiht all tanks that you are having this issue.Otherwise if it's limited to one tank perhaps you need to press the G key to open the gunsight porthole with some models( particularly the SPGs and SUs?)

The dark sight appears at the commander's position in the zoomed view through the optics (with marks and crosshair). Sight illumination just brings the marks lighten up, but the view still stays deeply dark. Driver and Gunner's view looks good so far. I tested in 3rd Tutorial mission with default Tank T34.

With the IS-122 its getting worse. At the positions view (F1,F2,F3...) I can see the heaven or a black flickering screen with just the interface to see. Thats all, no head movement possible. In this tank, all optic views instead are ok.

T34/85 same problem: Flickering interior sights, optics ok.
Panzer III and Tiger same problem...

Looks like its all the same in the other tanks.

I assume you know the drill? Install DirectX9, update your video drivers, play around with the settings,

Let's see some of your screenshots, this should be interesting,

Default PC Specs

Could you post your pc specs(cpu,gpu, OS etc) as well to see whether the issue could be found there and what kind of screen resolution are you playing the sim with?
