Empire at War 64 bit Update

Has anyone successfully installed Star Wars: Empire at War in Crossover since the 64 bit update? Were you able to get it to run? If so, what settings did you use? It launches to a black screen then exits back to Steam. My Steam bottle is Windows 10, so it's a 64 bit bottle. Suggestions would be appreciated.

I tested the GOG.com version this year on Crossover 23. However, I also have the Steam Version and I could test it this week.

I also have a Windows 10 64-bit bottle for Steam. The issue with Star Wars : Empire at War is that sometimes it misses dependencies during installation, so Installing the Simple DirectMedia Library into the Steam or the Application Bottle is what I am going to be testing on the app.

SO I finally tested both versions, and here is the result

Okay, so here's the status of the Gold Pack (Base Game + Expansion) for Star Wars : Empire at War and it's Expansion, known as Forces of Corruption, as of Crossover 24. Steam involves having a Steam Bottle which was installed as Windows 10, 64-bit.

Installing the GOG.com version of the Gold Pack for Star Wars Empire at War is similar, install as a Windows 10, 64-bit bottle for the game installer provided by GOG.com

The result should be a smooth running game at 4 or 5 out of 5 stars for compatibility
