I've started using POL back in 13.04(?), and it was flawless. Now I use 14.01(?), and whenever I open steam using POL, all what I get is a steam client without letters.

Ah, classic dwrite font problem... I'm tired of this problem.  I wish Wine would be compatible with dwrite by now....

1. Go Back to PlayOnLinux
2. Select Steam
3. Click Configure
4. In General Tab
5. Click in Arguments
6. type:  -no-dwrite

That "should" fix the font problem, but you would have noticed it at the login, unless you have it automatically log you in...

 

I saw DirectWrite mentionned very often in Wine changelogs starting with 1.7.24 or so, no change with recent versions?

I was just going to say the same thing. That last few point releases they have been getting a lot of commits regarding DirectWrite.  

That would be awesome if Wine worked without having to disable it.  I'll take a look...

Wine 1.7.30 has a bunch of updates for dwrite:  WineHQ
