Unity, Windows and OpenGL
I asked this question over on the Unity forums but have not had a response, so I thought I would ask here.
My current project requires a native plugin for rendering and then compositing our content into the VR eyes. This renderer requires OpenGL.
Since the Oculus 0.4.4 there hasn't been a working version that has supported OpenGL. It's coming up to a year since that SDK release.
This is what I've found while testing different builds, runtimes and sdks.
Can anyone give me a heads up about support for OpenGL support on Windows and when it might be coming?

- Windows GL support is planned but low-priority due to the extremely limited number of apps using it. Is there any way you could port to D3D11? For example, you could use WGL_NV_DX_interop2 (https://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/NV/DX_interop2.txt) to share a texture you render in GL with Unity's D3D11 renderer.
- Unfortunately, it probably won't. The next API we are planning to add is DX12.
