Error message when saving a big SL2 project file

Hi there Igor.  I'm sorry that this is hanging you up!  Since Storyline is a 32 bit application, Windows only allows us to address 2GB of memory. Anytime SL gets close to this limit, we'll display that message. Often times, you can still save after the message appears. If you're not able to do so, or you end up losing your work, it might be best to investigate the issue with our tech team.

Some ideas we would want to troubleshoot are if you are working locally, using the latest update of Storyline 2, and closing down other applications or programs that could be drawing on the system memory? If so, and you're still having difficulty I'd invite you to work directly with our Support engineers so that they could gather a bit more information about your system set up. 

Crystal thank you for your sympathy and desire to help.
And is there a program option for the forced compression of project file?

I also find it hard to believe that SCORM-publication takes up the same space as the project file containing the video recording of the screen capture. And this is true. A SCORM-publication contains only fragments of video recordings from the project file.

How can I reduce the size of the project file and SCORM-publication? Note that the program does not adjust the level of screenshots compression in the publication of fragments of screencapture.

Hi Igor,

There isn't a setting to change  how we compress the published output directly. You could look at adjusting the quality settings as a part of the publish and that should give you different file sizes as well. We'd also want to to take a look at your .story file and see what behavior we're experiencing while testing it out as well. Can you upload it here for us using the "add attachment" button or send it along to our Support Engineers?
