Re: Error Code: EC:204 (can't play offline, says "game license has expired")

I was able to play offline mode to avoid the game/mod breaking update since it came out. I was able to play sims 4 earlier this morning now when trying to launch it (ea app) shows the game license has expired and gives error code EC:204, I have followed deleting the cache update the app and everything but still receive the error. I dont want to repair the game as it will install the latest update. Any solutions?
