Conversation
Upstream OpenComposite aborts on Windows when a process calls VR_Init with VRApplication_Background (apptype 3), so OpenVR helper processes die under Wine. The GameNative build returns VRInitError_Init_NoServerForBackgroundApp instead and never opens a competing OpenXR session. The DLL now comes from GameNative/opencomposite v2, built by CI from the same upstream commit as before plus the patch in that repo. Point the two staging scripts at that release.

Validate existing files before skipping the download.
This block runs only when opencomposite_x64.dll does not exist. If the output directory contains the previous DLL, the new URI and checksum are skipped, and the build can package the old OpenComposite version. Check the existing file against the expected checksum before skipping, or replace it when the checksum does not match. tools/stage-opencomposite.ps1 already follows this behavior.

Description
Upstream OpenComposite only allows
VRApplication_Backgroundon Linux ("Proton uses this") and aborts on Windows with "Cannot init VR: unsupported apptype 3". Under Wine that kills any OpenVR helper process a game spawns with that app type. This ships a build that returnsVRInitError_Init_NoServerForBackgroundAppfor that case and never opens a second OpenXR session.The patch is Feli's from #1904. The DLL is now built by CI in https://github.com/GameNative/opencomposite (release v2) from the same upstream commit
a27e7e6as before, so it no longer depends on anyone's local toolchain. The two staging scripts point at that release with the new checksum.Diff is the two DLLs plus the URL and hash lines in
tools/stage-opencomposite.ps1andtools/build-xr-payload-macos.sh. No Kotlin changes; the app reads the DLL straight from assets.Supersedes #1904. The
-O2 -ffreestandingruntime change from that PR is separate and should come on its own.Recording
