Emulator shows Skybox instead of Origami scene

I have successful deployment to the Emulator, I see my app in the OS, and I get Visual Studio to deploy it just fine. But, with my Main Camera setup with a Black clear color, the emulator just shows the default horizon/skybox, and none of the tutorial's origami scene: meshes/lights/etc do not show at all. I am following the 101 video & instructions from the hololens tutorial site. Can anyone suggest what I may be doing wrong here?

  • Did you add the origami scene in the Unity build settings window?

    Yes, I named both the scene and the project "Origami" as the tutorial specifies, added it to the build settings, and it shows up in the "Scenes to Build" window, with a check in the checkbox.

  • Could you take a screen shot of your camera settings and your unity build settings?

    In general you shouldn't see a skybox at all even in Unity. If you do, then you have a camera controller somewhere that is set to skybox instead of clearing to black. Since you said you already have this done, make sure you also don't have any other camera in the scene as well.

    okay, well that all looks right (except for the random cubes. :))
    Maybe something is corrupted in the Unity build output. Try this:
    1. Close unity and visual studio
    2. Go to where your origami project is
    3. Delete everything except for ASSETS and PROJECTSETTINGS
    4. Start unity back up and rebuild

    After step 2 your origami folder should look like this:

    Sorry, the random cubes were my attempt to make sure no matter when I looked, I had something to see. I am nuking and starting over now, we'll see where that leads.

    To sum up the solution - I nuked the project and started over, and now everything works perfectly. Just another day in the life...
