sandwer Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Is it just me or did alpha 3 work better o.O Did you completely trash the alpha 3 code and data before you installed the beta 1? That helped improve things... //R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brewno Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 I just tested VirtualDub, and it works (with a few bugs, but I could convert some video files that I couldnt with OSX). Nice =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milesce Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 If you check out the Crossover Mac beta forums, they talked about MSN Messenger and Windows Live Messenger -- they don't expect it to be able to work pretty much ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reghost Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 alot of the software i use under windoz need .Framework. I cant run some of the app I really do care about.

milesce Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Well, I finally got Half-Life 2 installed and running on the beta. It doesn't like high resolution, but otherwise runs just as fast as native, or at least no noticeably different. I'm not someone who measures frame rates, but my pulse was just as fast as playing it when booted up with boot camp. The other apps I needed -- Outlook, Visio, photoshop, firefox, ie -- all work just fine. The one thing I can't get working yet is Quickbooks Pro. Yeah I know, silly to run Photoshop in Crossover, but PS 7 under Crossover is WAY FASTER than CS2 on Rosetta. Once it's out in universal, we'll see.

reghost Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 MILESCE As a newbe to PS (workin on it for a year or so) what would i be missing out on using ps7 on crossover vs cs2 on intelmac? Besides performance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskurza Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 all I cared really was the media player and streaming media. they work. oh and winamp too. I just like winamp here it is.. media player 6.4 with dixv codes installed EDIT: oh by the way MSN messenger 7.5 works under win98 bottle. However it is extremely slow. not really usable.

sandwer Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Beta 2 just come out. http://www.codeweavers.com/beta/cxmac/download/ I'm using it. Its fixed quite a few glitches I was having with Lotus Domino Designer - I've given it a good going over for the last two hours and its not fallen over once (Which is ironic, since safari barfed three times in the same period). It looks like there have been some cosmetic changes to the X11 fonts, and the bottle management is better in the XP bottles but most of the improvements seem to be speedwise. I'm seeing a serious speed up in the time to load for a lot of apps - Office in particular. 10 seconds to load Excel and susequent loads take just 5 seconds. I'm liking this release a lot. Robust.... //R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
