Hope dies at last...what is with the Zip-File that Awesomium have made for Ashley? Is it a Error within Ashley's Code?

According to Awesomium it is - but I would very much like to hear Ashleys take on this.

And I would also like RC3 included in the next release - so we have a change to try it out on our games. I would like to have something to report back to Awesomium too.

Yes, it seems like Ashley Check this out at the moment - hopefully Ashley can find the Devil in the Code....

That would make my life so much easier - Unfortunately my current game is depending on Awesomium - and Awesomium seems to be the weakest link of the C2 chain at the moment :)

Good news! I've managed to properly enable GPU acceleration (turns out Awesomium had a flag you had to turn on that was off by default, duh). However there are still some minor issues with V-sync that hopefully can be resolved. Should be much better for the next build anyway! Updates in the thread I linked to.

Awesome news! So - for clarification - we can now expect 'Chrome or better' performance?

Hooray!

Even 2/3 of Chrome would be awesome in 1080p fullscreen ;)

This is good news. Looking forward to it, VSync issues or not. That's just minor compared to missing GPU acc.

Aaaahhhh...Good News Ashley.....Vote for 60 FPS in fullscreen....

Hmm... I've tested it on some lower end systems and it still doesn't seem to be up to Chrome's standard. I think we need to solve the issue with V-syncing. I'll release it as-is for the next build anyway, but it might need some more work still.

Not sure what V-syncing is, but hopefully it will solve our problem!

V-sync tries to keep the framerate of the game in sync with your monitor's refreshrate/framerate.

I reckon Awesomnium won't be good untill Decemember or sometime next year it seems.

— You never know, could be a small bug somewhere preventing it from running as it should natively in chrome.

Hopefully it is only a little small bug and Ashley can find it...waiting to next year will be horrible...
