Switching between Rift cameras + working example
Edit: Below is my original post. It has since then been solved. Here's a working example. I have been trying to find a way to switch between two Rift cameras and have yet to find something that wor...
Your solution sounds like it will kill performance for your overhead view at some point -- it's still rendering the main camera underneath even if you're not seeing it.

If that doesn't help, maybe try moving the OVRManager out of those prefabs and just have one active one in your scene at all times. I haven't tried this first-hand since I ended up just moving a single camera controller/rig through the scene, re-positioning and re-parenting as needed, so I'm curious to know if you get this to work.

cam1.SetActive(false);
