Preinstalled games work properly now

Have game files already sitting on your Mac, DRM-free installs, copies from another machine? Drop the exe on a bottle (or File > Run Windows Program…) and it just works now:

  • The game starts from its own folder, so titles that load assets by relative path stop breaking
  • It runs with the bottle's renderer instead of the slow fallback that was silently used before
  • Run and add to Programs now creates a working entry for exes anywhere on disk. Before this release it quietly saved a broken path for anything outside the bottle
  • CLI users: highball pin add <bottle> "Name" <path> pins anything directly

Thanks to the Reddit user who asked whether preinstalled games could skip the installer. They can.
