Fox Go client on Crossover 19.01, OS X 10.15.3

Hello,
I am trying to run the "Fox go client", i.e. a program to play the board game "Go" online on the Fox Weiqi server. The software can be downloaded (english version) via https://www.foxwq.com/soft/foreign.html. Installing in Crossover seems all good, but when trying to run the software I get "The command "/Users/eskil/Library/Application Support/CrossOver/Bottles/FoxGo/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/foxwq/foxwq/foxwq.exe" returned 3." I tried creating a logfile, see below, but unfortunately I am no wiser reading it. Can anyone offer any insight?
Kind regards
Eskil

As I didn't get any replies to this, I contacted support instead. And, I got a great answer! I will post the full answer below, but in short I went to https://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/mac/mactutorial/unsupported_deps and downloaded https://www.codeweavers.com/xfer/Dependency_archive/Blank_KitchenSink_Win7.cxarchive . After restoring this bottle, I installed foxwq (fox weiqi / fox go) client inside it. And it worked!

Here's the full support answer, which perhaps can help others googling the same issue:

[i]Thank you for writing us. As it turns out this application is not listed in our support database, this typically means we do not have a reference if this application will install or run in Crossover. We don’t expect all windows applications to work because crossover uses a wine compatibility layer and does not provide a full windows environment. With that being said, I got a different behavior after applying the suggestions outlined in the following link.
https://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/mac/mactutorial/unsupported_deps
I used the the bit dependency archive.

If the application installed successfully, you may have to use the "run command" in the bottle.
Browse to the executable that resides in the ProgramFiles> foxwq folder. Select it and run it.
In the run command window click "Save command as launcher" this should create an icon in crossover.
Refer to the following link : https://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/mac/mactutorial/run_only

Note, applications being tried in crossover for the first time are not guaranteed to work immediately. If the preliminary steps outlined in the link, adding dependencies and changing configurations do not work, this implies the need for development. With this we don’t have a dev on hand to look into issues with problematic applications. Development resources are limited so we are unable to divert into addressing issues with this particular application.

Extra information: While foxgo runs fine with crossover (also version 20.0.2) on catalina, it seems to saturate my CPU and cause the fans to spin at max. Not very nice when I want to play go. However, I found that using the free app "AppPolice" to limit the CPU usage of foxgo to about 80-100% solves this problem. Now things are quite and nice.

Please Note: This Forum is for non-application specific questions relating to installation/configuration of CrossOver. All application-specific posts to this Forum will be moved to their appropriate Compatibility Center Forum.
