This CrossTie will install Stronghold Legends into Crossover. The 2 CD version does not work, so stick to the Stronghold Collection which is on DVD or Gamersgate.

The Gamersgate version:
Some special instructions for the Gamersgate version of the game. The Crossie will autodetect the downloader file and will download the game files automaticly to the The 2 CD version won't work, Recommended is: Stronghold Collection DVD or Gamersgate or Steam version for the Tie.

When using the Gamersgate version the installer will only download the game to the "GamersGate temporary files" in your downloads folder, and then gives an installation failure. This is normal because the gamersgate file only downloads the game folder with the collection files inside. This is not bad but this means you have to do a few extra steps.

  1. Go to the Strongholds Legends bottle in: (Crossover menu) Configure --> managed bottles.
  2. Select the applications Tab and click install windows software
  3. The Crossover software installer will appear, click "other application" in the list
  4. In the "select an installer", "choose installer file" --> navigate to the downloads/GamersGate temporary files
  5. Go to the SH2 folder and select the setup.exe file and install the game.
  6. Shortcuts will be created after the installation and launch the game using the shortcut in the menu!

Oh, and yes, the other games of the collection can be installed in the same bottle and should run fine as well (Stronghold, Stronghold Crusader, Stronghold Legends).

Have fun!
