Desktop+ Browser

Browser component for the Desktop+ VR overlay application, using the Chromium Embedded Framework.

Usage

Steam

Switch to the "Desktop+ NewUI Preview + Browser" beta branch.
Browser overlays will now be available within Desktop+.

Release Archive

Download and extract the latest archive from the releases page. Extract the DesktopPlusBrowser folder (as-is, not just the contents) into the Desktop+ install directory.
Make sure to pair the download with a version of Desktop+ that supports the respective Desktop+ Browser release. See the release entry for this information.

If everything is working, browser overlays will now be available within Desktop+. DesktopPlusBrowser.exe will be run by Desktop+ on demand (don't launch it yourself).

Building from Source

Desktop+ Browser is built as part of Desktop+.
Add the assets_browser and src folders to a copy of the Desktop+ repository before trying to build the application.
Alternatively you can also take the Shared folder from the Desktop+ repository and add it to the src folder to keep it more separate. This will require moving the build's output to the Desktop+ folder afterwards, however.

With the required files in place, the Visual Studio 2019 Solution builds out of the box with no further external dependencies.

A build of CEF is included in the assets_browser directory as convenience. If you want to build CEF yourself, keep in mind Desktop+ Browser requires OBS Project's CEF fork (a big thanks for their phenomenal work here!), with an extra fix for Desktop+ Browser. The repo for that is available here.

Other compilers likely work as well, but are neither tested nor have a build configuration.
