Not able to play the games without internet now using Beamdog Client?

in Beamdog Client
I've noticed that after switching to using Beamdog Client I can no longer play any of my games (I've got them all), except IWD, which still works, without internet access. Is this going to stay like this? As much as I like the Client interface, I'm not a fan of needing to have internet access to play a game already on my computer.

    Make sure you are using the most up to date version of the client (it should be called "Beamdog Client" and not "Beamdog Experience"). You should be able to play them without internet access. I just tried launching them from the exe from the folders and they worked.

    Also the client itself has an offline mode (though having it active as far as I'm aware isn't necessary).

    I do have the most current version: 2.1.3. When I installed Client I deleted all of the games and reinstalled them using Client, and now I can't even find the exe files anywhere (I'm using a Mac). As stated, IWD is still playable through Client in offline mode, just not the others.

    The launch files/install folders for mac I think would be in Users/Username/Beamdog Library

    Thank you. I seemed to have found them all except Siege. Icewind Dale has 2, one in 00799 and one in 00801. Actually, I did just find Siege's. It just happens to look like the regular BG insignia too, instead of the dragon head.
