The first zips (pre-mkdist) shipped d3dx9_43.dll / msvcp140.dll / vcruntime140.dll next to the exe -- testers without the VC++ / DirectX redistributables cannot load the exe otherwise. mkdist missed them (the clean-extract boot test passed only because this machine has them system- wide). Carried into redist/ (recovered from BT411_4.11.341.zip) and packaged next to the exe. Also: players/README.txt -- the tester instructions (updated for the unified build: one exe, clickable cockpit surround, trigger-config regroup, the settled keymap, play_steam.bat) -- stamped with the version and placed at the zip root, matching the original zips' shape. Clean-extract verified on BT411_4.11.435.zip: root has README + 4 bats, exe dir carries all 4 DLLs, glass-profile boot simulates. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
