    In beta 7 using Windows Mixed Reality, there is an immediate and always existing issue of far plane not rendering correctly even though the setting is correct on the camera.

    Also, I get an endless stream of the following error:

    Same here. I was not having this error in beta 6.

    The far clip plane bug is present in beta 8 as well. The infinite recurring RenderTexture.GenerateMips error message is gone but is replaced by a finite set of the following error message:

    I am having the same issue Unity b8. It only shows when I have the HMD plugged in.

    I don't see the issue in B4.

    Hi,
    Thanks for reporting this issue. We already have a fix but it still needs to be backported to 2017.1 and 2017.2.

    Any idea on which 2017.2 beta release this will make its way into?

    If this is the issue where the far clipping plane is very close (and everything beyond is black), then I am having this issue in the 2b8 preview. This occurs both when using the AH100 headset, as well as using the simulator. And like @gfaline I did not have this problem in beta 2b6.

    This is making my testing nearly impossible. Please fix as quickly as you can.

    Also, if you need to reproduced this, get Microsoft's Mixed Reality 250 project and run Chapter 5 (where you are immersive and on the island and are ready to walk up the beach). Everything beyond the beach is clipped to black. Ref: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/mixed_reality_250. Note: You'll need to get the latest GitHub pulls to remove the compiler errors (since some of the calls have been deprecated).

    Thanks.

    Agreed. 2b9 did not fix the problem. Can anyone from Unity give us a guesstimate on when this might be fixed?

    The branch with the fix was merged with the main repository two days ago, so hopefully it will be backported soon.

    Could you specify what is not working for you?

    Has the fix been deployed to 2017.1.1f1? I'm still seeing an endless stream of the RenderTexture error.

    Post processing V2 SSR. @Chman mentioned it'd be fixed in a future build. It was not fixed in b11.

    It's just a mipmap error engine side and you guys seem to know it already. I thought this was the same one!
