stereo skybox

Hello,
I want to be able to apply separate skybox images to each camera eye but I am not able to access the camera Left / Right nodes at runtime.

Have a look at the thread here:
http://answers.unity3d.com/question...r-each-left-and-right-eye.html#answer-1255234

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class runtimeAd : MonoBehaviour {
5.  
6.     Camera camLeft;
7.     Camera camRight;
8.  
9.     // Use this for initialization
10.  
11.     void Awake()
12.     {
13.        
14.     }
15.     void Start()
16.     {
17.         if (GameObject.Find("Main Camera Left").AddComponent<Skybox>())
18.             Debug.Log("skybox added");
19.         camLeft = GameObject.Find("Main Camera Left").GetComponent<Camera>();
20.         camLeft.clearFlags = CameraClearFlags.Skybox;
21.         camLeft.GetComponent<Skybox>().material = Resources.Load("Material/leftEyeMat", typeof(Material)) as Material;
22.        
23.         //Debug.Log(camLeft.GetComponent<Skybox>().material.name);
24.  
25.         camRight = GameObject.Find("Main Camera Right").GetComponent<Camera>();
26.         //camRight.clearFlags = CameraClearFlags.Skybox;
27.         camRight.GetComponent<Skybox>().material = Resources.Load("Material/rightEyeMat", typeof(Material)) as Material;
28.  
29.         //Debug.Log(camRight.GetComponent<Skybox>().material.name);
30.  
31.     }
32.  
33.     // Update is called once per frame
34.     void Update()
35.     {
36.  
37.  
38.     }

I have also tried to use the "Update stereo camera's" option in the UI menu and make the modifications there.No luck !

Thanks for any help.

Did you try RenderSettings.skybox ? (in UnityEngine)
Manually, the option can be accessed via : Window > Lighting (Environment Lighting : skybox)

 

Update 1:
@thep3000 the attached example file works fine without adding GvrManager to the scene.
Once I add GvrManager things go back to the usual overwriting camera rig bs :/
Man what a pain.

Thanks @thep3000 .
The thread you linked to leads to another thread which provides a solution for OculusVR.

Will this technique also work with Google VR or if I install the Daydream preview ( 5.4.2f2-GVR10 ) ?
Thanks once again.
