Hi...
...I really do not know why you are doing what you are
doing ; it's pretty much un-needed all told, but I can
see you're confusing the 'cxgames' directory, with a
bottle directory..ie; you haven't touched any bottles
yet afaict...
...more-overly, your procedure is out of step with
'normal practices' -- that is to say, the proper procedure
here would be to back (make cxarchive) of your bottle(s),
and upgrade/replace the crossover installation. That, will
upgrade the bottle configs/registry as needed at the same
time. Should something go wrong with that process, and/or
the newer crossover version creates some problem for you,
you can fall back to the previous position via the bottle
archives created...
..with Steam usage in crossover, you need to adopt some
usage strategy to account for various things. The first
thing to do imho, is once you download a new steamapp,
immediately backup the game files from within the Steam UI,
before you even start the game. That way you end up with
a pristine installation backup of the steamapp, to avoid
having to download the files again. I copy these (many..)
Steam backup files onto an external harddrive...
...there -have- been cases (proven) wherein a crossover
upgrade (or steam patch) requires a total reinstallation
of the game files. Although rare, the only way to fix
such is often to create a new steam bottle and restore
the game from steam backup. Due to this idiosyncrasy, it
can often be a waste of time using crossover to create
a cxarchive of a steam bottle...if not because of the
sheer size of that bottle (many steam apps installed),
then because crossover has changed in some way, that
requires the game be installed with the newer bottle setup...
...I think you're just coming at things the wrong way
more than anything else ; you're actually making it
harder on yourself I think =)...
Cheers!
