Any plans to make the launcher usable offline?

[AstronautG117]

Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible to save all the data locally so that I could use the different mod packs and maps offline. Right now if I'm not connected to the internet, the options don't show up and I can't play on the mod pack. Any fixes/any planned fixes for this?

Edit: I've also been having the same problem as others with the launcher giving the
[ERROR] Exception during reading modpackfile
I feel as though being able to have the mods offline would fix problems like this, while only needing to connect to the internet if you want to update/download new modpacks/maps.

Yes there is, it will work simular to the minecraft offline mode in that you'll have to log in once first.
Also, from what i've heard you won't be able to enter offline mode yourself, instead it will use offline mode if the FTB servers are down or you'r unable to connect to the internet.
