Adobe Flash isn't loaded on Mac OS X

Open samuelmaddock opened this issue 9 years ago • 19 comments

It has been known for a little over a year that the Adobe Flash plugin isn't loaded in Garry's Mod. This seems to affect a lot of users of the Cinema gamemode. I'm assuming that Awesomium is unable to find the plugin.

Updating the PluginsPath property of the Awesomium WebConfig object might be able to fix this issue, I'm not sure though.

Confirmed on Linux too

It does actually work on Linux, but a plugin has to be downloaded and saved to a specific directory. See the instructions for Cinema.

Would be nice if someone could search through the GMod source code and let us know what paths may be defined for Awesomium. Of course, updating Awesomium might just fix this for us. Maybe that's a bit optimistic though.

PlayX have the exact same problem, As HTML5 would be a good alternative if were enabled on Awesomium on Win/Mac/Linux.

I guess that the path is hardcoded, because I found no config-file to change it. Would it be possible to create a softlink that points to the actual location of Flash?

do you think you can solve the issue or is it something that can't be fixed?

Please, fix this I don't know what the big problem is. If Linux can have it fixed was is Mac so complicated? This is still not fixed? This is ridiculous.

The issue is providen by the fact that the application doesn't have the path to adobe flash set. The only one way to fix it is that is to wait Garry's update for mac and prey that they care about flash issues. This fix can be fixed realy fast as all i know of software developpment.

@willox any chance you could test this prior to shipping CEF with GMod?

This is normally an issue when playing cinema or loading any videos in GMod Sent from my iPhone

It will never be fixed, Awesomium will never be updated, any change related to Awesomium/gmod web-browser will be rejected, even if it's very simple.
