Game in Steam not opening

Hi all,

I got crossover yesterday and tried to use it to play Stronghold 2. I got the crosstie from the following website and installed from there:

https://www.paulthetall.com/stronghold-2-mac/

Firstly, steam wouldn't open (because the crosstie used windows xp I think) and so I ran command winecfg and changed Default settings windows version to windows 7. Now I can open steam, but when I try and play the game, it opens a new tab, says "preparing to launch stronghold 2". This then immediately closes and after a few seconds I am given the option to play the game again. Same thing happens.

Anyone know if/how I can fix this? Would really love to play stronghold !
