Strange Brigade Tips

I've successfully got this game running on an M2 Max Macbook Pro on Crossover 23. I had to fiddle with things for a bit to get it to run properly. Once you get to the main menu it seems to be smooth sailing from there.

Here is what you need to do:
1. Install via a "Steam" bottle
2. When you open the game, you will be presented with a launcher. It will be black, and have no visible buttons.
3. Hover your mouse over the black launcher and move from the top of the launcher downwards. You should see the cursor change to a hand. This indicates you are over a button.
4. From experimentation, it seems the buttons are as follows: website link, Launch with Vulkan, Launch with DX12.
5. Move the mouse to the second button (about 70% from the top of the launcher).
6. Click.
7. The game will now launch, but it will be a black screen. Just be patient.
8. If you're presented with a red game studio logo then you're good to go.

Just a couple of other notes for getting the game running:
1. Make sure it's configured in high resolution mode from CrossOver, otherwise the main menu buttons don't seem clickable.
2. The game will start with DX12, and you may even get as far as a main menu. However, the screen flashes constantly and you'll get stuck in the main menu (epilepsy warning here). So, use Vulkan.

In short, don't get discouraged by the all-black launcher, the buttons do work and the game seems to be quite performant if you can get past these initial hurdles!
