CrossOver Games for FreeBSD

Posted by timothy on Sunday April 20, 2008 @02:57PM from the to-the-other-side dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Jeremy White from CodeWeavers has made the announcement that an experimental build of CrossOver Games is now available for PC-BSD users. However, this unsupported edition should also work on FreeBSD or DesktopBSD, allowing users to play Windows games on their desktop. The FreeBSD version of CrossOver Games can be downloaded here (registration required)." From the attached notes: "Remember this is an experimental build! If you are on FreeBSD 6.x, you will need to apply a system patch from http://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine to enable wine to function properly. Users of FreeBSD 7.0 and higher do not need this patch."

Further, we feel strongly that most of our customers are best served
by the stable, shipping version of CrossOver. That's right folks, CrossOver claims to have customers. That's the scoop! :)
