START

1.0, First Program To Install:

Go to Windows Games Seamlessly Integrated on Mac or Linux - Mac Windows Games, Linux Windows Games - CodeWeavers and click on the try now button, then wait for the download to complete. After the download is finished, drag crossover to your applications (like any other download eg: skype) and open it.

2.0, Installing CS:S with CD:
After opening crossover, open Macintosh HD and open up the CD (look to the left and double click CS:S). Then go back to crossover and click on CrossOver Software Installer, when the window opens up click on Install Unsupported Software. After that window opens up, DO NOT CLOSE IT OR CLICK CONTINUE!!! Open the CS:S CD window and double click steam.msi and crossover should pop up then press continue and install it like normal.

2.1, Installing CS:S without CD (steam):
Go to Welcome to Steam and download steam (do not run it, it will not work) after the download is complete, go back to crossover and click on CrossOver Software Installer, when the window opens up click on Install Unsupported Software. After that window opens up, DO NOT CLOSE IT OR CLICK CONTINUE!!! Open Macintosh HD (not inside the program) and go to downloads, then double click on the steam.msi icon and crossover should pop up then press continue and install it like normal.

3.0, Running steam:
If steam didn't automatically load, open crossover then in the bar all the way at the top of the screen, click on programs, steam and then just click on the steam icon. If you downloaded without the CD, now would be the time to download/buy CS:S from steam.

4.0, Making CS:S go faster & Making Console appear (still through steam):
This one is easy, right click on CS:S, properties and set launch options. When the screen opens, paste:
-novid +mat_hdr_level 0 -console -heapsize 1048576
into the screen. Then click on ok, the screen should close, then click on close (not steam, the smaller window).

5.0, Making CS:S go faster (through cfg):
Open the crossover screen and click on Manage Bottles. When it opens, click on steam, then click on advanced, then on Open C: Drive in Finder. When the window opens, click on Drive_C, Program Files, Steam, SteamApps, Your Account Name, counter-strike source, cstrike and finally on cfg.
When you get to the window, make a copy of any .cfg file and rename the copy to autoexec.cfg (if the other files are not showing the .cfg extension only name yours autoexec). After making the copy and renaming it, open TextEdit/Notepad and click on file, open and open the autoexec.cfg file. When it opens, erase everything inside of it and copy/paste this into it:
