This is pissing me off, I prefer the old launcher where even you don't have internet or anything you can play. But this new launcher FORCES me to download every single file every time I restart it.
I have checked the .minecraft folder and every file is there. (1.8.4). But the goddamn launcher downloads the 1.8.4 and twitch stuff and that. It's too annoying.
Yes, I have bought the game. But this is too damn annoying. I tried disconnecting my internet then playing it, but it won't open even if I click "Play Offline"
Is there a fix for this or the launcher is just intended to redownload files every time it starts? If so then I'd rather use a cracked launcher to skip all those.
When it logs "Attempting to download ..." that doesn't mean that it actually downloads anything.
If everything is already downloaded then each file will report "Local file matches local checksum" and no download actually occurs.
I can successfully launch MC without any internet connection whatsoever (i.e. via "Play Offline"). But you must have all the files successfully downloaded and you must be logged in. If either of those conditions doesn't hold then it will want Internet access to obtain the missing file or to log in.
I have noticed that when I wait for it to "download" the files during online, I can launch it in offline with no problems. After some time it will restart to the point where it will redownload files again in online mode.
The only way the launcher can redownload the files is if they're not there. This means that if it is indeed redownloading them, it's because they're somehow getting deleted or corrupted. A possible fix is to move your .minecraft directory somewhere else.

Useful stuff to help with commands in MC:
MCStacker <- The best /summon command generator out there. Also very useful for data tags on /give commands and /setblock and quite a few others.
minecraftjson <- Epic book/sign/title/tellraw creator. Turns hours of command creation into minutes!
Single command block <- Ever seen those epic single command block creations? This is how you make them!
