My cousin wants to try CrossOver so he can play Everquest2 on his Mac, so he downloaded the trial version. He can't get EQ2 to install though, and I've tried several times as well. Here's what happens:
- Click the CrossTie button to install EQ2 (we both tried from the dropdown menu within the unsupported programs list in CrossOver, but it doesn't always install DirectX that way).
- Change the install link to direct to the install file he's got on his computer, since the install link shown in CrossOver is wrong and there's no way to redirect it.
- Go through the entire install process until it does a "simulated Windows reboot".
- At this point we always get an error message that says, "The ‘Installing EverQuest II’ task failed. The installer has exited but EverQuest II does not seem to be installed Continuing with the install may produce unpredictable results."
There is now an Everquest2 bottle, but there is no game installed in it.
Since he had planned to buy CrossOver if it runs the game decently, he submitted a support ticket. That was 4 or 5 days ago now and his trial period is quickly running out without him ever getting to use it.
Anybody experience this issue and have a solution?
Thanks.
