Until now, the choices makovodov wanting to play Windows games on your favorite platform was not rich. For the most part it is divided into the installation, in fact, Windows (bootcamp), and use one of the emulation options.
On one of these ways I shall now tell you. Crossover Games - are well-known version of the emulator Wine, sharpened by the game. The Russian language is roughly translated as follows: "if you're lucky - will be able to play in something not very new and advanced".
Each game is stored in a separate "sandbox", called here the bottle. To install simply insert the disc into the drive when running Crossover or point the program to a file with the installer, which she tries to run. The installation process is not fundamentally different from that on Windows, except that the window titles are familiar aqua decor, and the programs themselves have reported "someĀ» C: program filesyada-yada. Ideally, the process is as follows: create a new bottle, "pushes" to the game and then run it by double-clicking on the app to create a program file. That's the theory. In practice, it would first have to wait until the bottle is created, then you can try to run instyallyator, hoping completed correctly, and then try to run the game itself, which can also refuse to work without additional explanations. In short, from a dozen running for fun toys set only managed half of the remaining earned normally has only half. Maybe I was just unlucky, I may do something wrong (Macbook - clearly not a gaming machine, and not all run the game number in the list of supporters), but facts are facts. In fairness, I note that in the "parallyalyah" with their vaunted enabled games to run is possible, too, is not all.
On the other hand, if someone really Crossover allows you to play your favorite games, then why not? Also, why not try the program yourself: maybe you are lucky? I probably did not carry.
Price joy - 40 green rubles.
P.S.: from the fact that remember (from memory) work properly Tutrix, FAKK2 (by the way, it does not come under XP, although there were serious problems with the mouse), Warhammer 40K Soulstorm passed tests, but refused not worked because of the protection system, have not seen the disc, Knight Shift could not be established, Unreal Anthology established, but none of the games did not work properly (white screen), Gish is not set managed.
P.S.: No, I do not know the game will work under X Crossover on your computer or not.
