Symptoms

The game, at GameCenter (My.com), give this error:
Steam needs to be running to start the game "Warface". please run it and press Play again.

I think just need an patch to the laucher, for see Steam already started, why I launch this GameCenter from STEAM, but I don't have a fast-skill like you for reproduce this patch.

Research direction

Start by reproducing Warface (291480) through GameCenter (My.com) from Steam with Proton 3-16.8 on the reported Arch Linux system, and inspect the reported Steam-running error. Done would mean the launcher recognizes the active Steam session and the game starts without that error, but the report does not identify files or tests.
