    Sounds like the policy did change because what you describe is not how FGC with an ultimate license has operated without a network connection for a number of years.

    The Ultimate license has always required an Internet connection in order to host Free/Demo license users; for both FGC and FGU.

    But not to load the campaign up.

    True, but that's just a bug. It's actually an exception error during the local LAN server startup due to the disconnected state of the user network connection.

    This issue should now be fixed with the 4.0.2 release a few minutes ago. Info here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...Release-v4-0-2

    Happy to say 4.0.2 fixed this for me.

    I can neither confirm nor deny whether I figured this out by moving the internet cable from my desktop over to my laptop for a work Zoom meeting, and then booting up FGU on the desktop during the meeting. If that happened, it would be really appalling.

    Also confirmed working. Using my ultimate license, I disconnected from wifi (don't even have wired network at my house), then hosted a campaign, and ran a second instance of the game and connected to localhost. Am relieved and grateful that this was a bug that's now fixed and wasn't an intentional decision.

    Only minor complaint that's really NBD is when clicking on Join Game, it be nice if rather than the console log popping up with errors, the server lobby list would just say "No Internet connection detected" or something more user friendly like that.
