If I ran simspark from your package and it needed msvcrt-ruby18.dll and zlib1.dll. Sometime need another two DLLs: MSVCP71.DLL and msvcr71.dll. Did you tested simspark with rcssagent3d? If I run agent, simspark show this error [1]. And also ball is yellow. 
I update simspark wiki [2] (now working on RSGEdit). It's first version of Creating Windows distribution of Simspark from source (from SVN). There is no hacks or manual copies files (except requirement DLLs like Ruby, ODE etc.). All just from source to binary. If you have some time and another system like Windows 7, please test it.
