New to CrossOver > First Game Installed Just Bounces in Dock When Clicked But Doesn't Start

...Is that a symptom of the game (older title, Age of Wonders Shadow Magic; silver medal), or did I install it improperly?

Thanks for any initial feedback, trying to figure out if Crossover is a worthwhile tool for me.

Hi,

You will need to provide more information for us to help you,
such as which platform/OS{version}/videocard you have (and if
linux, which drivers are being used), along with some info on
the title itself..ie; is this a CD installation or something
else?....

Cheers!

Looking at the Compatibility Page for this game, it sounds like it may be an issue with the included DRM (if it's the original CD). If it's from GOG.com, it's probably something else entirely.

Thanks for the responses. I'm using the GOG.com version. I'm able to open the config files and editor successfully, but not the game itself -- the wine icon just sort of bounces once and then checks out.

Thanks for any advice.

Hi,

@Nathan - thanks for pointing that out...;

http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/?app_id=1174;tips=1

@slickhop - have you tried anything suggested as per above link (or in
the forum thread there)? I ~think~ the x3100 can be problematic at times,
but if nothing works as per the app's pages, the only recourse is going
to be debugging things. Post back if you're still stuck...

Cheers!

ps: this thread should really be in that app's forum, but, I won't ask for
it to be moved there until we've finished the current tasks at hand here.. 8)
