Missing (actually black) sky in Spearhead

The sky for my maps does not show up when I run them through Spearhead. They work as expected in AA. I even started a new map from scratch using the entdefs for Spearhead with the same result, just a solid black sky.

Can anyone help me?

Unfortunately as I live in the wilderness according to EA - or the UK as the rest of the world knows it I don't have Spearhead yet....there does seem to be a load of compatability problems between SH & MoH so I'm not overly bothered..

Ill give you an answer as soon as I find it. Had this prob at work. Took my map there that Im working on to test with friends. Loaded it on a buddies pc with lower specs to test fps and it was like night...pitch black. I have ran it in Spearhead at home with no probs before. I am assuming that since his pc has a much lower performance level a video setting is causeing that. When ever I get a 100% definite answer ill let ya know.

btw the sky was in the pk3 file I made so I know it was not a texture left out;)

I would be will to bet that its a vid setting...

I had been running Spearhead with Options/Video/Texture Detail low, as I have a performance challanged PC. When I changed it to medium, the sky showed up.

MP maps that came with Spear work fine but mine and one I downloaded, "military_post-spearhead", the sky will be black if I use Options/Video/Texture Detail low.

Hope this rings a bell for someone more knowledgeable than myself. I would like my maps to work on all levels of detail.
