OpenMyBrowser - gui.OpenURL now opens your browser - Garry's Mod

Hello, To learn C++ and how to make modules I decided to tackle something I've never really liked, and that's the Steam browser. So I created OpenMyBrowser: a module that replaces gui.OpenURL with a function that opens your preferred/default browser. The module has one cvar for the client which is [code]openmybrowser_use_my_browser[/code] which allows you to turn OpenMyBrowser on and off. If you want to set up a bind for this, you can simply do: [code]bind key "toggle openmybrowser_use_my_browser"[/code] To toggle it with a key of your choice.

This will go swimmingly with borderless windowed full resolution mode.

Would there not be security issues such as opening up a dodgy site? Not saying there could be, genuinely asking ☺

THANK FUCK

[QUOTE=Britain;49978146]Can you actually download stuff via Steam browser though?[/QUOTE] No. I see this as a feature and not a security issue, you have to authorize most downloads on secure browsers anyway, and I can see you're using Chrome so you should be fine :v:
