Hi
Crossover uses things called crossties. These script download everything you need to run the app, it manages to download the dependencies of the app plus the app installer itself.
So long story short check this link https://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/crossover/gog-galaxy and click on the button install now. A script will be downloaded once the download is over run the script and crossover will show up just click continue and proceed.
I have an easier time installing this through Wine directly. Not sure why it is having issues in Crossover. I did get errors about not being able to install Internet Explorer 7, which I suspect has a part to play in this. I don't get those errors with plain Wine.
About the crosstie, it does not work anymore since the download link is broken. It was on a file sharing platform.
Anyway I would recommend only download from the editor of files hosted by Codeweavers to avoid any security issue.
Actual download link is now https://webinstallers.gog-statics.com/download/GOG_Galaxy_2.0.exe
But even if after manually downloading the installer or fixing the download url in the crosstie the install fails.
