Referencing #962 for my workaround to make steam browser working on phoenicis.

It seems that this fix is not reliable on my system -> Investigating

TEST RESULTS

steam installed using 20190310-next - sha256sum: 0e8498d962e365da6ece94b739798635fc3af14fdceaff59ce94655c5dccf4da on debian buster using wine-4.9 (Staging) which has win7 environment, gameoverlayrenderer dll_override disabled and CSMT enabled result in: https://youtu.be/LaR8nQ0Ir2w

While winxp is set on steam{webhelper,}.exe it results in blackscreen of the browser https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PX_aLOfyM44

IMPROVEMENT: Never open steam client:

Login using:

  • What about 2FA ?

Start the game using -applaunch id [launch parameters] which Launches an Game or Application through Steam.

Might be usefull:

Those arguments might only work on 64-bit wineprefix.

The Steam client requires and uses OpenGL acceleration.

Big Picture mode requires DirectX 10.1 libraries that Wine currently does not support.

  • DXVK required for steam!

Steam now uses the Chromium Embedded Framework runtime to render the webstore. Playback of trailer videos is handled by the builtin HTML5 / Pepper Flash players. No extra Windows software is required to support this.

FYI you'll actually see, in the Wine log (I believe), that the -no-cef-sandbox argument is ignored these days.
I think the --no-cef-sandbox argument is just an Upstream issue (i.e the Chromium dev team depreciating this on Windows 7) (#winehackers)
