Is it possible to run in offline mode with mods enabled?

Steam was down earlier today. When that's the case we can still launch steam in offline mode and play some games. Upon starting Cities and loading a save game, I noticed that the mods that I have installed from the Steam Workshop did not work because I was offline. Is there any way to by-pass this? You'd expect that mods are saved locally, so it seems odd that you need an internet connection for this.


Solution 1:

Yes. The only problem you're likely to encounter is that the cloud saves and/or sync will be offline. Everything else should be stored locally.
