far clipping plane bug (>1000 has no effect)

I have a 1000x1000 units (meter) big playing field. So when I am at one corner I can no longer see the the opposite corner with far clipping set to 1000.
But changing the value has no effect - I set it to 5000 in the end to be sure, but still the other corner is clipped away.
The setting can be set on the OVRCameraController as well as on CameraLeft & CameraRight.

Is it a bug or am I missing something? I'd rather stick with my 1 Unity unit = 1m scale.

    simmilar issue. changed values on cameras and OVRCameraController. changed even in OVRCameraController script.. No lock . Far clip planes are still at the same distance. the strange thing is that it works on monitor, but with rift on does't.

    [SerializeField]
    	public  float 		NearClipPlane
    	{
    		get{return nearClipPlane;}
    		set{nearClipPlane = value; UpdateCamerasDirtyFlag = true;}
    	}
    	[SerializeField]
    	private float 		nearClipPlane   = 0.15f;

    	/// <summary>
    	// Gets or sets the far clip plane for both cameras
    	/// </summary>
    	/// <value>The far clip plane.</value>
    	public  float 		FarClipPlane
    	{
    		get{return farClipPlane;}
    		set{farClipPlane = value; UpdateCamerasDirtyFlag = true;}
    	}
    	[SerializeField]
    	private float 		farClipPlane    = 91000.0f;

    there is no reason to change the code - you likely just forgot the same thing I did, apply your changes to the prefab.

    I changed it a couple of times already with the current SDK and never had a problem :)
