Somehow my brother fixed it. He left Minecraft open over night or something and the next day the download was working. I simply copied all his files related to MCEF and it started working, though I suspect one file in particular "mcef.json" -- a file that did not exist before I copied it -- had been causing the problem. I can give you a copy of mcef.json if you want to try that:
So I'm trying to use Web Displays (in v11, Minecraft 1.7.10, and 64 bit java that comes with the new launcher), but obviously the latest version requires this API, correct?. However, whenever I launch minecraft and this mod is supposed to download the required Chromium library files, it freezes at libcef.dll and doesn't continue downloading, though minecraft launches. Is this supposed to happen? Either way in game web displays does not display any websites (only a black screen).... Does anyone know the answer or have a similar problem?
I'll probably look at the source today to get a general idea of what's wrong, but if it's my own user error some assistance would be much appreciated.
As minecraft is completely based on Java, so is this mod. This mod (up to version .09) has been using a 32 bit dll to load web pages in JOpenGL. However, a 64 bit jre cannot load 32 bit dlls (sadly). The only way to use this mod (without updating to the new version .10) is to install a 32 bit JRE and edit your launcher settings to use the 32 bit JRE. So, unless you have other mods that haven't updated to 1.7.10 yet, I advise getting .10. Downgrading JRE is not worth it.
Can the mod owner, or someone with permission from the mod owner please port version 0.10 to 1.6.4, or version 0.07 to Chromium. I have waited so long for this mod to update to 64 bit and when it finally does, but its for 1.7.10 only. And no I can't update to 1.7.10 because of my other mods. Any help whatsoever would be appreciated. Or an alternative.
herobrine123x_, I think what TheNinjaBetaTester meant is to make the mod compatible with the 64 bit JVM, so 64 bit users don't have to downgrade their JVM, limiting RAM usage. As the mod developer says in the "Next Update" spoiler on the first page of the thread at the bottom, using Chromium (a 64 bit dll) to replace his current 32 bit dll for in game internet interaction would solve this problem (the 64 bit JVM is limited to only reading 64 bit dlls and cannot read 32 bit dlls). We can however assume that because it is in the "Next Update" section that the mod developer is attempting to get that working, hopefully sooner than later because I'm not getting it until its 64 bit compatible, as I'm sure some of us would agree.
Can u open up a command prompt window (start, then search for cmd) and type java -version into it. It should say whether or not the java program on the path is 32 bit or 64 bit. For example i have a 64 bit Java Virtual Machine version 1.8.0_11 and "java -version" outputs:
java version "1.8.0_11" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_11-b12) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.11-b03, mixed mode)
If this outputs "64-Bit" like mine that means that you have the wrong java executable on the path and you need to edit it to the proper (32-Bit) path.
I was just wondering what your ETA for the next update was (need it for my server because no one wants to downgrade to 32 bit). I understand your predicament with Awesomium being a 32 bit .dll only, and the JNI for the 64 bit JVM only supporting 64 bit .dlls, but I was wondering if you could give just an approximation. (Or just release a version with Chromium and no other changes for all the 64 bit people who would love this mod).

Just go to your %appdata%/.minecraft folder and create a new file "mcef.json" and paste the above in. Might fix it.

java version "1.8.0_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_11-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.11-b03, mixed mode)
If this outputs "64-Bit" like mine that means that you have the wrong java executable on the path and you need to edit it to the proper (32-Bit) path.
