I've been looking but haven't been able to find anything.

Is there any way I can substitute Mani's in-game browser with STEAM's? Mani's is slow, buggy and doesn't always scroll. This would be a huge help in my server as I have some various links that I give players to option to go to in-game.

If not, can a plugin be created to serve this purpose? I'm sure it would be extremely popular.


Any help is appreciated!

I totally second this. On my Servers if you type forum in Chat, Mani Browser opens and lets you browse the Forum, rarely even working. With music it works, tho.

You mean the community one?

No, that's impossible. The one Mani uses is the one embedded into the game, which is the only one any plugin can open.

I guess someone have to implement MSIE-based browser as a Plugin ... Or better yet, Mozilla (Gecko)-based, MSIE sucks bigtime.

What they should let us do is use the overlay as it has better use of IE.

How about letting XFire take care of it all. I am fairly certain you can do an xfire:// link to open something up in its browser.
