Thanks for the feedback.. The fault for me here is I forget to restart steam in offline before unplugging :( - since i use a laptop. and move around quite a bit.
The offline "ticket" still only lasts for a set period that isn't very long :( and if you forget to go "offline" whilst ur online you rely on credentials that could be weeks old = thus fail! well i've another day wasted coding.. pfft ;) S. 2009/1/6 Jonas 'Sortie' Termansen <[email protected]>: > If you want your games to function while in offline mode, simply run then in > your last session before going offline.
