Default Embarassing Event Camera Question

Hello all, I'm embarassed to ask this but it has me scrathing my head.

I'm running SH3 1.4 with GWX and SH Cdr 2.7. For whatever reason, my event camera is greyed out in my options screen, so I can't turn it on.

I wouldn't care, as I haven't used it at all, but with the new "uber" destroyers in GWX (awesome in all respects by the way) I tend to dive full speed to 150m as soon as I fire my torps, and I like to check out my carnage from time to time.

So my question is, anyone know why this realism option is greyed out, and how I get it back?

Sorry to clog the forums with the dumb question.

GWX is a realism mod, designed to increase the immersion. The Event Camera is about as unrealistic as it gets. Of course, so are all the external views, but what can we do?

I am trying to enable it through my realism settings both on the main menu and prior to departing on my mission. I have never used it before GWX, so I never noticed it was greyed out before.

Any help is appreciated.
