Rift Doesn't Load and Crossover Quits when hitting Play in Lion

Title says it all. I hit play in patcher and Crossover Games quits. No error codes, nothing. Upgraded to Lion today and am running latest version of Crossover.

***Edit: Seems to be an issue with the emulation of a virtual desktop (which worked fine in 10.6.8). Trying to find out how to go back to a "windowed" game.

You can toggle this setting in the Wine Configuration app in your Rift bottle.

In CrossOver Games go to the Configure menu and select Manage Bottles. Select your Rift bottle and switch over to the Control Panel tab on the right. Choose Wine Configuration and click Launch Selected Item. Once Wine Configuration loads you can switch over to the Graphics tab and disable Emulate a Virtual Desktop.

Hopefully that helps!

Running games in an emulated virtual desktop in Lion won't work with CX Games 10.1.1. We're about to ship a fix for that later today or Monday - CX Games 10.1.2.

With CX Games 10.1.2 installed, you'll still have to modify a setting in the cxbottle.conf file, as explained, here:
