Offline use?

Some of us out in the boonies and up in the mountains can't always go online at will.. or sometimes, ever. Any way to get these in some form we can use offline? Any form, even if its messy? These 3 medieval village / town apps are amazing! I need these for when my boys decide to take off sideways just to irritate me. ;)

  1. It is possible just to download all the files used by a particular generator and run them locally. I think that you'll need to do something else (run a web-server on your computer?) to make it work, but it's a pretty common thing. I can't give you specific instructions, sorry. 
  2. A few months ago I provided desktop versions of MFCG and 1PDG for my patrons. Building these desktop versions is a cumbersome process so I don't do that for every new update, but I'm going to do that again sometime soon.

Oh, I'm not a stickler about having the newest bestest version or anything. I was actually thinking more along the lines of if you had an old version in Java or something that could be wrapped up neatly without doing a bunch of extra work. I'm actually using a Linux desktop right now, so a LAMP server or somethign would be stupid easy, anything advanced would just depend I suppose. It would probably be easiest just to mirror your server on a server I take offline later, but that sounds like an AWFUL lot of work just to generate random villages. :) Those first two links didn't go to your Patreon page. I scrolled down your Patreon page for a while, but I didn't see where you mentioned anything offline or anything.

Very good, thank you! Any hope on getting the other utilities working offline? (Without setting up a dedicated server! ;) )
