Conan Exiles - First Try (STILL NOT RUNNING - WIP)

Hi, everybody.

Just wanted to post my first impressions on running Conan Exiles under CrossOver on macOS.

Here's my systems spec's. I am playing CE on my Windows 10 partition very well. Be warned, this is a Hackintosh.

CPU: Intel i5 Skylake 6600K quad core, 3.5 GHz.
Memory: 16GB
GPU: NVidia GTX 970 4GB VRAM
Board: Asus mITX Z170I Pro Gaming

I have two SSDs in there, the large 512GB Samsung 850 Pro runs Sierra 10.12.4, the smaller Crucial 270GB runs Windows 10 64 Bit Home.

I run CrossOver 16.2, the latest official release at the time this post was written.

What I did is this:
I copied my Steam folder from the Windows side onto the macOS side and put it in a Win 10 64 Bit bottle I created previously. I then created a launcher to the Steam executable. Steam will start up and patch itself if necessary. When I try to run Conan Exiles, it will start, try to patch and then unceremoniously quit. I tried adding several of the fonts and Visual C runtime libraries, but so far nothing has made it work.

I will try again, and post more details (like screenshots) as soon as I have better results to report.

Your cross is waiting, exiles.

I'm also trying to get this running. I'm working with a 2016 MacBook Pro and Wine 2.14 64-bit Stable.

Launching Steam and getting the game to install is trivial once you're set up with WINEARCH=win64

BattleEye fails to start with a cryptic error.

ConanSandbox explodes with a stacktrace that might have some clues in it.

I'm currently re-installing, so I'll list the error messages in a follow-up post.
