what is this
basically bl-browser with cef

wtf do u mean CEF
it uses the chromium embedded framework (basically, it's like embedding chrome), which can allow for

720p+ videos
a massive loving screen
60 fps browser stuff
you can actually visit any url since it doesnt loving try to download everything

all said and told, cef is around 100 megs to throw in your blockland folder (yes, big, but it's the future).

<- example of it running at 1920x1440

download?
NOTE: THIS RELIES ON THE NEW BLOADER.
USE OF THIS DLL WILL REQUIRE THAT ANY DLLS THAT WERE MADE FOR THE OLD BLOCKLANDLOADER BE REMOVED.

Download
This was just built off of the source that's available from the repo. Any firewall requests are from Chrome, the DLL itself does not import WinSock, any networking libraries, etc.

Drag and drop everything that's in the installme folder into the Blockland folder. Do NOT use the launcher. Run the exe directly.
If you don't know how to install this, don't complain because this pre-release version was not meant for you.

Yeah. Generally, as a rule of thumb, if Chromium can do it, so can this.

Good work. Had a look through your files.

Your repository needs some garden cleaning.

Delete the "Debug" and "Release" directories. I'm not sure how you got them passed your .gitignore
The include directories are full paths in your visual studio project files. Should be relative if at all possible.
The source code doesn't follow solid principles.
