Is it possible to play without internet connect?

[Knotthead]

Hi all,
I am able to create a Public login server easily when I am at home on my network.
What I would like to do, though, is make it so I can play EQ on my laptop when I do not have internet access.

Here's what I have tried so far:
I have changed all my IP addresses to 127.0.0.1 in the eqhost, system32/drivers/etc/host, and the eqemu_config.xml

I launch my server and the 3 cmd screens come up and it looks to me like the world is loading up.
I launch EQ and get all the way to the server select screen. There is my server listed as UP!!! Click Play EQ, the computer thinks about it for a moment, and then throws back a Error 1017 - Cannot login to the EQ server. :shock:

Looking through all my log files from when I fired up the server, there is only 1 error log listed. eqemu_error_world_4388:
Could not load EQTime file eqtime.cfg

Here are my configurations:

eqemu_config.xml
<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>XR4TI</shortname>
<longname>XR4TI</longname>

<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. (read: You don't) -->
<address>127.0.0.1</address>
<localaddress>127.0.0.1</localaddress>

<!-- Loginserver information. Defaults shown -->
<loginserver>
<host>127.0.0.1</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Server status. Default is unlocked -->
<!--<locked/>-->
<!-- <unlocked/> -->

<!-- Sets the ip/port for the tcp connections. Both zones and console (if enabled). Defaults are shown -->
<tcp ip="localhost" port="9000" telnet="disable"/>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>asdfghjkl0123456789</key>

<!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. Defaults are shown -->
<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>

<!-- Chatserver (channels) information. Defaults shown -->
<chatserver>
<host>channels.eqemulator.net</host>
<port>7778</port>
</chatserver>

<!-- Mailserver (in-game mail) information. Defaults shown -->

<port>7779</port>
</mailserver>

<zones>
<defaultstatus>20</defaultstatus>

<!-- Sets port range for world to use to auto configure zones -->
<ports low="7000" high="7100"/>
</zones>

<!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. Defaults shown -->
<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>root</username>
<password>*******************</password>
<db>peq</db>
</database>

<!-- Launcher Configuration -->

<!-- <logprefix>logs/zone-</logprefix> -->
<!-- <logsuffix>.log</logsuffix> -->
<!-- <exe>zone.exe or ./zone</exe> -->
<!-- <timers restart="10000" reterminate="10000" initial="20000" iterval="2000"> -->
</launcher>

<!-- File locations. Defaults shown -->
<files>
<!-- <spells>spells_us.txt</spells> -->
<!-- <opcodes>opcodes.conf</opcodes> -->
<!-- <logsettings>log.ini</logsettings> -->
<!-- <eqtime>eqtime.cfg</eqtime> -->
</files>
<!-- Directory locations. Defaults shown -->
<directories>
<!-- <maps>Maps</maps> -->
<!-- <quests>quests</quests> -->
<!-- <plugins>plugins</plugins> -->
</directories>
</server>

eqhost.txt
[LoginServer]
Host=127.0.0.1:5998

system32/drivers/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost

So, can you play EQ on a laptop without an internet connection, and if so, where am I going wrong?
Thank you for all your assistance.

HOLY COW I think I figured it out!
I was using a pre-existing account from my public server to log in with. I created a whole new account, restarted the server, and I have gotten all the way into the game!!

Sorry to waste your time, but hopefully this can help others in the future who want to play like I do.
