[GEAR VR] Cubemap material not showing up in GearVR

[Sunchaser]

I have the SM_SkySphere with a simple material (see screenshot)
it's showing up in the mobile preview inside UE4, but on the GearVR, the material is not showing (the Skysphere is checkered grey)

any ideas ?
(the material is 2sided and unlit)

Be best to ditch the skysphere and make your own skybox, also I'm not looking at it this second but i'll check back here later when i have that called up on PC. Will get ya set up.

Thanks William.
Yeah - I thought so. I ended up building my own skybox in Maya (simple ball -> might make it a half one to save tris)

Meanwhile I got this from the Answerhub 'This renders for me in 4.12 Preview 5, but does require a component mask between the normalize and texture sample since the material is throwing an error that needs to be fixed otherwise the material will not compile correctly.'
