CEF for C# does not load at all.

[VasiDe]

Hi everyone,

 

I am playing with C# for RageMP I unfortunately I don't get one thing with CEF. I'm keep learning how to use some events and this time I have to create some UI to use them.

UI based on Javascript works great (e.g. https://rage.mp/forums/topic/1896-cef-tutorial-interact-with-browser-pages-in-ragemp-client-and-server/) however when I write my own code  in C# - it does not show at all. I am using Stuyk tutorial from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJsktWiY5W8 and it is not working. Even tried to copy everything 1:1 and script literally does not respond.

Recent code (based on Stuyk tutorial):

using System;
using RAGE;
using RAGE.Elements;
using RAGE.Ui;

namespace hello
{
    public class Main : Events.Script
    {
        RAGE.Ui.HtmlWindow CustomWindow = null;

        public Main()
        {
            LoadCEF("package://html/index.html");
        }
        public void LoadCEF(string uri)
        {
            CustomWindow = new HtmlWindow(uri)
            {
                Active = true
            };
        }
    }
}

 

html file contains proper template with HTML5 encoding and body bg color set for black only. Works with local browsers such as Firefox and Chrome.

Cleared cache memory several times to make sure it's overwriting the new one.

 

Some suggestions?

Thank you in advance

Where did you save the HTML File? Remember it has to be placed in "client_packages/html" in your case.

Was trying to find out why the wiki way does not work - https://wiki.rage.mp/index.php?title=RAGE.Ui.HtmlWindow.Active
Then I came across the post of someone having the same issue but years ago and unanswered, but today finally someone answers, this may not be useful for the guy who made this post anymore but could help others like me who was looking for answers.

The wiki shows an example like this:

HtmlWindow ShopCEF = new HtmlWindow("package://cef/shop/index.html");

private void openUI() {
    ShopCEF.Active = true;
    Rage.Ui.Cursor.Visible = true;
}

private void closeUI() {
    ShopCEF.Active = false;
    Rage.Ui.Cursor.Visible = false;
}

This example is incorrect and does not work, an correct working example would look like this:

HtmlWindow ShopCEF = new HtmlWindow("http://package/cef/shop/index.html");

Hope this helps someone else in the future.

Note:
I asked few time for access edit the wiki, so stuff like this can be fixed but we never seem to get an answer or fix to this.
When attempting to create an account to edit the wiki you are meet with a cloud flare block. No new account has been able to be made for years come on fix it please,
Some of us really want to contribute.
