Awesomium can not open certain URLs

[ckosmic]

Some websites such as http://scratch.mit.edu, http://ckosmic.github.io/gemu/, and http://udemy.com immediately get redirected to chrome://chromewebdata. Other websites work like http://hammerjs.github.io/examples/ and http://google.com. My addon requires http://ckosmic.github.io/gemu/ to function.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Extract retromod.zip into garrysmod/addons
2. In game, spawn the screen under Entities>Awesomium>Awesomium
3. Go to any of the listed websites that do not work

This is in version 2017.12.19

I believe Awesomium is getting replaced to CEF soon, so I doubt this will get fixed for Awesomium. You can test CEF out on dev branch with -chromium parameter. The QEMU link doesn't seem to work on my Chrome browser, so it might not work on CEF.

Well, hopefully that will be soon, because it seems like MOTD from my website don't work very well... :o))

So I now have this issue, my whole xperidia.com domain won't load...
It was working before now it doesn't... This breaks some of my stuff...

Seems to work really fine in the Chromium branch tho...

When CEF will finally replaces Awesomium?

On top of that, I've noticed a few days ago that:

1. Gmod browser doesn't support modern ssl_ciphers (TLS 1.1 which is obsolete already and newer)
2. External domain images in your page won't be loaded.

Checked with wireshark. Websites rejecting TLS negotiation because of outdated cipher. Thankfully Awesomium will be replaced soon. 🙂

@jorjic You can use SSLLabs as well.
My test for example:

(yes, I went for hardcore security, screw obsolete peripherals and software)

Almost 4 years since this issue though... I wonder if it will ever be updated now.
