CrossTie instructions for Mac!

OSX tested: 10.9.1
GFX Card Tested: Nvidia 640M

I created the Crosstie for the GOG.com version of Zeus, which includes as well Zeus Master and Olympus as Poseidon. use the installer to install the game into crossover and play! Works great!

Have fun!

Hi Paul - and thanks for being a fellow Zeus enthusiast! My favorite legacy game - played years ago - I now have a MacMini and was very excited to learn about Crossover - I'd buy it even if it can just run this one game :).

I am trying Crossover with my ORIGINAL Sierra disk - it seems to have installed but I get a "no disk found" error - which is that Windows XP - even with a full-install - when you ran Zeus, it always did a check on the CD drive to make sure you had a legit copy.... and yes - I bought and own Zues and Posideion from years back - wish that Sierra/Impression games had never folded.... the city builder games out there now are NOT the same quality or challenge. These games were great.

So two questions for you -

Do you know a way around / setting in crossfire to force the game on loading to "look" at the CD drive ?

or

IS the game site "GoG.com"'s version "broke" so it does NOT look for the CD drive. I see the game is only $5 so I would buy it no problem - but I do actually own the game and have the old disks... can you help?

thanks! I wil check back here and hope you see this post!

Hi Paul,

I am having issues getting the file to convert in Crossover on my MacBrook Pro.
I downloaded the game for my HP Laptop through GOG.com a few years ago and it worked great. Since this is one of my favorite games I was happy to see I can now play it on my MacBook Pro! I downloaded Crossover first. Then CrossTie and logged into GOG.com and redownloaded the game. However I get an error at the end of the install from Crossover saying:

This installer contains GOG Galaxy which requires Windows 7 SPI or newer. Download game files only (Offline Backup Game Installer) from your account.
