OSX build for windows/Directo to Rift mode

Is there any way to build, on OSX, a windows application that features the Direct-to-rift .exe? Or a way to create it afterwards?

    If you look at OVRShimLoader it seems to just copy:
    /OVR/Editor/OculusUnityPatcher_[32/64].exe
    And rename it to
    YourGame_DirectToRift.exe

    I'm not sure why line 39 has 
    #if !UNITY_EDITOR_OSX


    I guess you could just take out the ! and see if it works.

    The other thing it does is write to OVRAppInfo, not sure why it does that.

    Alright! Thanks! It didn't work directly copying the OVR executable, but nabbing the patcher from another demo and renaming it works fine it seems!

    Much appreciated!

    Any word on why this is the case? And if there's any harm in the current fix?

    This worked perfectly for me. Thank you Proton! :D
