CodeWeavers's CrossOver alternatice for Mac users

Since there is no support from GarageGames about Leopard issues with Constructor, and working with XP is quite boring (I'm a true Mac user for years); I've started today testing Constructor with Codeweavers CrossOver, an application I've a beta tester for, and I'm now a customer.
I reported on this forum, months ago, it could be used with QuArk. And it is it still right.
Today, I did install Constructor and will continue testing later in the day.
So far it works, but there is a slight glitch in the top menu. It is not visible, but it is present and working. You will have to figure where are the words...
If you want to test it by yourself, CrossOver offers a demo for 30 days, and is then a cheaper solution than a complete XP license.

More to report later.

Stay tuned.

It should have been "alternative", dumb typo. 8P

Export is working.
The only other bug I have discovered so far, is a problem with long path name when trying to re-create my texture albums. I couldn't import a complete picture folder due to the extra length in the path.
Moving stuff in a closer place solved it.
