Current Steam builds can ship only bin/x64_dx12/witcher3.exe without bin/x64/, which made looksValid() reject the install. Fall back to the DX12 executable when the DX11 one is missing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Current Steam builds of The Witcher 3 can ship only
bin/x64_dx12/witcher3.exe, with nobin/x64/folder.GameBinarypoints atbin/x64/witcher3.exe, solooksValid()rejects the install and MO2 refuses to open the instance ("the game directory … doesn't exist or the game plugin … doesn't recognize it").This change falls back to the DX12 executable when the DX11 one is missing, both for detection (
looksValid) and the default executable (binaryName). Installs that still havebin/x64behave as before.Tested on MO2 2.5.2 (Steam build 25646871): the instance opens and the default executable points at the DX12 binary.
