hi
I am currently having problems trying to play Puzzle Quest 2
I have bought the version of my game on Steam. But I am a mac user so of course it doesn't work. So I have also installed CrossOver Game on my Mac.
I am really a newbie with such applications and this is the first time that I am trying to play with my Macbook.
this is what I own:
Macbook (the white one)
Mac OS X 10.5.8
2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
2 Go 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM
video Intel GMA X3100
I have installed Steam from CrossOver. I have also added the c4p 7558 even though I have no idea if it is useful. Since I don't know where Steam downloaded the Puzzle Quest game file on my computer, I have managed to do a backup of the game from my own Steam game library. Then I have been trying to install the game from the backup folder I created but it doesn't seem to work.
now when I click on "play" the game in my Steam library, some window appears and tries to load Direct X (or something similar) but then suddenly stops and that's it. Then the "play" click is available again.
and when I try to install the game (the backup version) through CrossOver, it does until a window opens asking me to first install Steam. I don't understand why since Steal is already installed on CrossOver.
so I don't understand if I would need to install the game from it's original place on my computer (and not from backup folder) to make it work but I really have no idea where Steam has saved it in the first place. It is not in any of the usual folders like "my downloads" on mac. Maybe it's hidden to avoid copying or piracy.
Before buying the game, I saw in the CodeWeavers CrossOver compatibility center that the game has a Gold medal, so I thought that it would run on a mac without any problem but maybe I am missing a point.
Can anyone help?
thank you very much
