Hi Mike,
I'd recommend setting the master camera's projection matrix so it
fills one side of the cube, then have the slave cameras just rotate
from this.
Have a look at how the View::setUpViewFor3DSphericalDisplay method is
set up. You won't need use render to texture of course or the final
slave camera that does the distortion correction.
