Update Chromium

[JaccoGoris]

The current version of chromium is severely outdated. I've spent a day trying to upgrade it but it was a huge mess and I failed to do so.
Is there a clear guide anyone could provide to do so?
Would anyone else be able to update the chromium version?
Thanks!

I'm followingf this git for a long time now because I thought web capabilities within unreal was a must to be. Is EPIC out of this completly?

@SrGeneroso epic has their own chromium browser embedded inside the engine as a Web Browser widget: https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-us/Engine/UMG/UserGuide/WidgetTypeReference/WebBrowser

You can find the source for this here: https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/tree/release/Engine/Source/Runtime/WebBrowser

and the dependent CEF here: https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/tree/release/Engine/Source/ThirdParty/CEF3

Regarding the BLUI update process you generally need to update the blubrowser component here: https://github.com/AaronShea/BluBrowser with sources from http://opensource.spotify.com/cefbuilds/index.html. It's an involved process, last time I did it for 3.2556 you can find some notes about it here: getnamo#9
