Minh, you must mean that you have to _uncheck_ that option box ... if Steam doesn't save the information then it will never go into offlline mode at all.
I just tried this (with it checked) and it will not work. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Minh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 12, 2007 5:59 PM Subject: Re: [hlcoders] This is how you enable Steam Offline Mode
Ok, ignore my last post about adding the -dev parameter to steam to get offline mode working. Apparently, that doesn't do anything. The real reason I managed to get steam working in offline mode was because I clicked on "Don't save account information on this computer". Note, in order to click on this option, you actually have to be logged onto steam.. so you must log onto steam atleast once in order to get offline mode working. Log onto it , go to settings, and check mark that option to not save account info. Log off steam, unplug your internet, and then log back on and this time when you select offline mode, it won't complain about "not being able to connect to the steam network" Oh, and once you log back into steam in offline mode, you can un-check that option to not save acccount info. on this computer. Once you get offline mode working once, it will work fine anytime afterwards (regardless of that option being check marked or not). Oh, and I tested this on two of my laptops, so I'm pretty confident that this procedure works.
