So I'm trying to play Sims 2 because my wifi is out (sorry for typos, on mobile because data) and when Origin tries to launch with no internet connection it's just showing a dinosaur and "err internet disconnected" instead of giving me the option to launch offline. Is there any quick and dirty workaround to get the game going with no wifi to launch or update origin?

Securom is not an issue anymore(instead they made you launch the game via Origin), but you can see you need certain file which I won't tell here. (Google is your friend, but beware)
