sebbie Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I have FM installed on Laptop and sometimes when i try and play it offline it comes with an error trying connect to Steam network, why would it do this when i have requested it to play offline? Any help in stopping this happening? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legionaire Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 You need to set steam to offline mode(do this when you are online), if you want to play offline Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebbie Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 But it gives me an option to play offline when it can't connect to steam so i choose that and most time it works but now and again it don't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Ive wondered if you install with steam and the internet goes down does that mean you cant play FM or do you just have to stick the disc in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebbie Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 Well notice on my PC at home steam just done client update and think this why i get the issue. There should be a way it still connects and waits to do the update till back online. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
