GotGame Launches Rogue, The First In-Game Web Browser

DO WANT. Looks like there is no impact on game performance either. I'm always alt tabbing to firefox when i'm playing games.
 
Oh I hope this works with Fallout 2, i've been alt-tabbing every 5 damn minutes between the game and an online guide. >.<
 
looks cool :)

similar to steam overlay

hopefully warden on wow doesn't pick it up as a cheat tho :p (not sure if it uses hook injection or anything)
 
What I find really strange about this is that "all" that u do here is assign the name of the foremost screen tag to the screen tag of the browser. Something that strictly speaking, the likes of IE/etc should be able to do - ala TaskManager can own any screen u want.

Windows operate on a parental basis of a screenname-> to draw a window to, if u have the name, u can draw to it. The screens such as ur desktop are always there, even if a game is running, u just cant see it without taking ur life in ur hands and alt-tab`ing.

Around 20 years ago, when certain computers used to multitask many things, including screen display, properly, the intuitive nature of drawing windows was exactly the same. Screenname as the parent to the window u draw.

Difference being there was that those screens u didn`t need to alt-tab, u could just drag the screen down to see the desktop or other screens (max 8 I *think* from memory, or 7 and 1 for the OS) behind it. No big pause, game-crashing alt-tab shoddyness.

This is 20 years ago.
 
It munches all my memory. It's not something I shall use all that often.

I'm sure I saw someone using the steam overlay as a web browser.

Nice idea but a epic failure.

9FPS constant in game with it active.

Screws over xfire totally.

Stops all functions of steam friends.

Good news the bug stated here (characterised by 100% CPU usage on primary core) has a temporary work around which will be a permanent fix by "next week"

Start Rogue

Select "Game" in the optimization

Go to Taskmanager

End process called "GGLive.exe"

Start prefered game
