Holograms 211 base starting Model Explorer not working

Just going through the Academy demos and haven't had any problems until this.

After downloading the files, navigating into starting folder and selecting the ModelExplorer in Unity, then build and open in Visual Studio, then build, then start without debugging.

It then deploys to Hololens, but the Astroman scene flickers and cuts out. Background audio plays normally. The directional cursor is working fine, but near Astroman (when gazing on Astroman) the cursor sticks in spots and Astroman view goes mostly black.

It seems like the program is hanging or has something going on in the loop that is causing it to hang. Can't close the app with bloom while gazing at the Astroman (which is mostly black and not visible at this point), but if gaze away, and then bloom it closes.

This is with no modifications to code at all. Just went through Unity setup instructions, and it produces this failure.

Reloading the previously completed ModelExplorer from 210 Ch.6, and it continues to work fine. Thus conclude something is wrong with the base code in the Starting Folder. Also loaded up ModelExplorer code in 211 files Completed folder, and it works fine,

One last item if interest, upon Unity opening this code (Starting, Completed and 210, 211) a window appears that the:

"Saved project (5.4.0b16-HTP) does not match the launched editor (5.4.0b24-HTP)." and more. But this hasn't caused any issues, at least yet. Don't know if this is related.

Of course this has been appearing for me for all the courses, so don't think this is related. I think the code in the Starting folder is bad.

    @utekai,
    Can you double check that you are building for Release and not Debug in your Holograms 211 project?

    Also, it would not hurt to delete your App, UWP and Library folders. It may be possible that there are mismatches based on the mixing of the output from the two beta versions.

    Thanks@
    David
