Great read Brett, after being told to stay away from this I have taken th plunge and it all appears to be working, am installing the original Half Life now!
If this can get system shock 2 to run on linux Ill eat my own shorts,its hellisly unstable on both vista and xp but if I can get it working on linux ill purchase this package and give a donation to wine ;P
does anyone know what the difference is between crossover games and crossover windows is? had a quick look on their site, and there seems to be two: crossover mac and crossover windows. At the moment i'm only really fussed about a really old emulator i found for a game i used to play about 10 years ago...addiction all over again! however, no doubt BF2 HL2 etc on mac without bootcamp would be massively nice.
Great desktop wallpaper in the screen captures. I sometimes run the same one on my PC. I won't mention the actual originating website for that particular wallpaper right now because I don't know if any copyright rules apply. I'm thinking none, since I had downloaded it from the free samples area though.
I did some testing on the linux version(fedora 8):
System Shock2: Randomly freezes at speech,only works in winxp mode,didnt try 2000 mode,98 mode just kicks out,updated to latest version
Black and white 2: Kicks out at loading screen,might be bad bottle didnt test again
Vampires the masquerade bloodlines: Plays better than it ever did on my pc and everything set to full on crappy 7600gt (latest updates ;) )
