Import Wine's applications to Crossover?

Hello.

I tried to install Ultra Street Fighter 4 on Ubuntu.
So I downloaded Wine, Steam, the game, but it crashes without
any noticeable error a few seconds after I start it.
A friend told me to try with crossover, so I downloaded it,
however I'd like not to download these files again,
because it's something like 8Go in total.

What could I do to indicate to Crossover that I already have a
Steam directory with games in it? I read the help but didn't
find anything that could help me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I downloaded Steam with Crossover and just moved the folder
that was in the Wine directory. Issue closed.

You may want to do more than just move whatever directory is in c:\Program Files\ for your given application. Your best bet is probably to find your wineprefix (likely a directory named ".wine" in your home directory) and copy everything inside that to ~/Library/Application Support/CrossOver/Bottles/[new bottle name].
