Heroes of Might and Magic III Tips

Windowed mode

There's an old function in Crossover I used to get that game to start windowed so I could get screenshots of it. Launch Crossover, click the Bottles button in the top left, select the HoMM3 bottle, go to the gear menu, Settings, and check Use Legacy X. Then open the Wine Config control panel, Graphics tab, and check Use Virtual Desktop and set the resolution you want. When you launch the game it'll open in that size window.

This X11 mode isn't supported anymore and will likely disappear in a future version of Crossover as the main window management system has moved over to the native Mac OS window manager Quartz.
