It's been years since I've not had a reliable connection (and I don't really game on the move), but you're right. People should be able to use these mods offline.

I've a solution of this, but it is not very nice. You can start the game with mods when you have internet connection and when you finish playing you don't quit the game, you should just minimize it with Alt+Tab, and when you want to play the game againg, you maximize it. It isn't very good, because the game takes amount of memory and it can crash. I hope developers will reads this thread and make a patch patching this.

It should be pretty easy. You'll want to find the folder on your computer where your subscribed mod files are kept (for example: documents\gaslamp games\dungeons of dredmor\steam_workshop\subscribed\ ). Make a copy of the .dat file, rename the extension of the copy to .zip, and move the new zip file to the appropriate folder of the following three (which you may need to create):

... Windows ... documents/gaslamp games/dungeons of dredmor/mods
... Mac ....... username/library/application support/dungeons of dredmor/mods
... Linux ..... $HOME/.local/share/dredmor

If you need help identifying the .dat file, once it's renamed you can unzip it and use something like Notepad to look at the mod.xml file, which is a small file containing the mod's name, author, and a brief description.

Alternatively, you can see if the mod is listed at http://community.gaslampgames.com/threads/completed-mods-index.1951/ and download the .zip from there. Information on how to install is at http://community.gaslampgames.com/threads/dod-modding-and-mod-installation-guide-updated-6-5-2012.1335/ .

Note that there will probably be conflicts if you try to run the two identical mod files at the same time.

Thanks!

Glad to help. :] I hope one of the methods works for you.

I seem to recall reading over at gaslampgames.com that they're working on some manner of official (Steam-integrated) fix for this, too, but I can't seem to find the post.

I had the same problem, all the mods I suscribed were not showing while in Offline mode. I copied these files from the Suscribed folder and pasted the files into the Mod folder. It worked perfectly.

Thanks a lot :)

(I assume this method also protect your Saves from getting corrupted if the mod is updated and changed, since the mod would update in the suscribe folder, but not in the save.)
