• activator new my-first-app play-java (update latest template)
• eclipse (create eclipse project needs new libraries too !!!)

I want to create my project with current and offline libraries (I want to work with latest offline distribution only)

Answer 1

To disable check update while you create a new project on Play framework, you can use these parameters like below:

 activator -Dactivator.checkForUpdates=false -Dactivator.checkForTemplateUpdates=false new

To be offline permanently:
1- If you installed SBT, add these parameters in .../conf/sbtconfig.txt

-Dactivator.checkForUpdates=false
-Dactivator.checkForTemplateUpdates=false

2- If you didn't install SBT you can add parameters to %UserProfile%\.activator\activatorconfig.txt or %UserProfile%\.activator\%APP_VERSION%\activatorconfig.txt
