Freeware/legacy C&C mirror hosting remains policy-gated under D037. Workshop resources explicitly include both video cutscenes and rendered cutscene sequence bundles (D038 Cinematic Sequence content + dependencies) with fallback-safe packaging expectations, plus media language capability metadata/trust labels (Audio/Subs/CC, coverage, translation source) so clients can choose predictable cutscene fallback paths and admins can review mislabeled machine translations. | — |
