The details: (requires you to also have crossover pro... since the client requires ie6)
Preparations (steps 1-3) 1. Use Crossover Pro to install 'ie6' using default settings. 2. Run winecfg in the ie6 bottle, setting the default OS emulation to win2000 * 3. create a drive mapping (symlink or use winecfg, same thing) so that your cxgames WoW install is a drive letter for the ie6 bottle
Curse client install/setup (steps 4-x) 4. install the curse client. 5. Run (or tell the installer to run) the curse client. DON'T LOG IN! 6. Edit your curse client settings and disable automatic update checks. Also, tell it to close the client when you close the window 7. Exit the client (important! otherwise it locks up trying to check for an update anyways) 8. Run the client, and choose to add a game. Browse to the drive letter you linked/setup earlier
Congrats! It should just work now! (keep in mind you need to manually download and install curse.com client updates
* the curse.com client uses unicode wxWidgets, which needs win2k or higher... but the ie6 bottle defaults to win98. Installing without doing this results in wxWidgets not installing, and a broken curse.com client install.
