Hi guys,

Hi Kobby,

right now Ventuz 5.2... is running with "awesomium 1.7.5.".
This may be interpreted by a webserver as Chrome.

Let me guess: you ask because you seen the "Chromium.dll" inside the Ventuz folder?
If so: The Ventuz Help is based on Chromium -

BUT:

Ventuz 5.3. will have a new Webbrowser node, well at least it looks like it will have a new one And this will be based on Chromium

So, if your thinking about doing a project with the actual Awesomium Browser - wait until 5.3 is released

Hi Dennis,
you've got me:) I've seen Chromium.dll and your user manual says:

The Web Browser node renders web pages into a texture so their contents can be used inside a Ventuz scene. This is done based on the ​Webkit/​Chromium technology, the former being the basis for the majority of modern web browsers on the market. The node supports HTML as well as ​Adobe Flash and ​Microsoft Silverlight content.
The Web Browser node implements not just the rendering but also the rest of the functionality expected from a browser. Mouse, touch and keyboard input can be used to navigate and interact with the shown content and a navigation history can be used to go back to previously visited pages.

Anyways, thanks a lot for your answer, I needed an exact version of engine used to tell our client what they should optimize for.

Do you have an ETA for 5.3.... ? It is kind of complicated to tell your clients wait until next version released:)


Best regards,
Kobbi

The old V5.2.x Browser Node is based on Awesomium, wich is a Chromium Technology. But the V5.3. Web Browser Node will be CEF, which is the way to go

I can not tell you a release date for the V5.3. even not an ETA.

Like i said above the ACTUAL "Awesomium is 1.7.5."
