There is a fix for this, at least for the scopes on the Type IXB (the one I used it on in my current career) and I think they did it for the other types as well. The NYGM team came up with it, but it seems to work without the rest of the NYGM super mod package (I'm still running on my old GW 1.0 install since I'm too lazy/busy to make all my personalizations again until one of the big supermods gets all of Anvart's lighted ships included in it).
I think this is the link for the thread about the fix:

Good luck!
