Guide |How to start the Launcher in offline Rockstar for a friend (Red Dead Redemption 2)

Another no money on the game, and he really wanted to pass the story. He buys the game then or not? His case.
I gave him access to the account, so he was able to play.
But there is a problem that I quite often play and when he goes to the account I was immediately knocked out of the game.
So, what to do?
It's very simple - you need to translate the launcher in offline mode.
As:
1. Give your username/password to a friend and let him come into the launcher (be sure to click Sign me in automatically) and download the game.
2. Let him come into the game.
3. It is desirable to give the game to boot (That would have passed the license test, even play a little)
4. During boot of the plot, let him chop off the Internet (Pulling of the wires or other otherwise.)
5. Then turn off the launcher rockstar.
6. Looking for on the computer the hosts file (Type these lines in the address bar field %SystemRoot%/system32/drivers/etc).
7. In the hosts file, at the end, write this:
0.0.0.0 www.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 socialclub.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 lifeinvader.com
0.0.0.0 rockstarnorth.com
0.0.0.0 prod.ros.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 prod.conductor.ros.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 prod.telemetry.ros.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 prod.cloud.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 prod.hosted.cloud.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 media.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 patches.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 tm-rgl-prod.ros.rockstargames.com
0.0.0.0 a.rsg.sc
0.0.0.0 gamedownloads-rockstargames-com.akamaized.net
0.0.0.0 gamedownloads.rockstargames.com

This will prevent the launcher to connect to the Rockstar servers.
8. Run the launcher and vaul, we have offline. PROFIT!

If the patch came out and you need to update the game, just remove the lines from hosts download the patch, close the launcher, write back all rows and then run the launcher.

We should solve the offline issue. There's one in Stima. You don't always want to keep the network on for the story game. Or maybe there is such a regime, and I just stupid? :( Prompt.

There is no such regime. That's why I did this guide - that would include offline in the rockstar.

Well, there are two options:
1) Buy in Stim;
2) Buy in PS Store and PS 4 (if not)
3) Don't listen to any nonsense and play as before
Good luck!!!

Jonas Weber if not difficult to explain in detail how to fit these lines in the hosts. just if you add, the launcher still connects to the network. I tried so 0.0.0.0 www.rockstargames.com and through the grid
0.0.0.0 www.rockstargames.com like this, there is no connection effect.

I've been working, after the update of the last, all the time requires activation, who knows what's wrong?

And if the game is bought from you in the steam, you can simplify it to a few steps:
1)Allowing a friend to play by family access
2) Let him play, but only when you're not playing

When I come in, a friend throws out a rockstar, and you need to go back with a password, and so every time, it can somehow fix?

Can't. Take a shot at my guide above.

Without a grid should work.

Here's an exact copy of what should be in the hosts:

# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
