    Smile Crossover Public Beta

    I'm just testing out the Crossover Public Beta. I normally don't go for this kind of thing but I bought Half Life 2 about a year ago and only played with it once under cedega. It seems to be installing without a single glitch which is nice. The real problem is I've forgotten my login to Steam and my registered email account is now deactivated

    Anyway for those of you who are curious, it's a 60 day trial - You can get it here

    Hi bigtomrodney !

    thanx for the link. i will give it a shot.
    i tried wine and cedega. ( only once ) didn't like and removed both.
    as you wrote, it installed without a glitch, seems promising....

    My first time using Cedega was with the GPL release. I then was ahem, 'given' a copy of the full cedega but obviously P2P didn't work without an account. I had a lot of problems getting HL2 to run, it took the best part of two days. As it turned out a Steam Patch broke the Cedega support for it. But as we speak my games are registered and decrypting. I just hope that I don't have to disable XGL/Compiz to run the games.

    Question Crossover Install Problems

    Hi All!

    Very thankful to have found a forum that somewhat relates to my issue - perhaps you may be able to assist me?

    I'm trying to install Crossover beta - however, I get an error code ( /usr/bin/install: cannot execute binary file) in my terminal program when I enter in the install code : sh install crossover standard demo 5.0.3.sh


    Perhaps I am entering in something incorrectly, perhaps the download is corrupted?

    Any help would be appreciated, as I am a semi-newbie, wanting to learn (how geeky is that!?)



    Much thanks.

    I assume that the file is called "install crossover standard demo 5.0.3.sh"?

    You need to enclose that in quotes: if you don't, it is interpretted as 4 separate files.
    Code:
    sh "install crossover standard demo 5.0.3.sh"
