Is there a way to play DCS with the mods one has purchased without having to log in?

I mean, the mods are purchased already and verified. Why is it required to be online/connected to the internet to play something you have paid for?

I'm only asking about DCS, not any other company or software.

If this has been asked 1001 times before, I did not find it in any searches, so this can be 1002 times asked...

Thanks for looking

btw: "mods" are free and you can search for them here:

DCS "modules" however are paid DLCs:

Thank you for your specificity! (I used the abbreviation "mods" to actually mean "modules" and I think you know that since I stated "paid for".) You are also awesome for finding something in search that I did not! Way to go. Thank you again.

I'm just getting back into learning more about DCS even though I have had it a couple years. Life got in the way and had to take care of a dying parent.

DCS abandoned the use of copy-protection software a while ago, but in exchange you are forced to be logged-in on ED’s servers, this prevents someone else from using a copy of your disk files to play the game.

I just tested and I can access my paid for modules in offline mode.

Just rechecked, and AUTHENTICATION needs internet connection. However you can log in for up to 3 days that your authentication is good for if you have no internet. Which makes offline mode pointless really, after 3 days
