Vmcg and Xwind

Havent slept for three days due jetlag and cannot trust my own knowledge ( lack thereof rather ) SO here goes.

When a manufacturer states the Vmcg is for example 120 kts on a specific rwy,weight etc. it is a still wind Vmcg - right???

So if you have max crosswind lets say 30 kts - doesnt that actually invalidate the Vmcg you get from the book?? ( should you lose the critical upwind engine )

Are Vmcg testing during certification done in no wind conditions??
