I need to open a story file that was created apparently in a newer version of storyline as the following message appear "This project cannot be opened. It was created in a newer version of storyline".
What can I do to be able to open the file. Does it means the training was done SL3 or 360?
yes you’d need to find out what version the file was created in and open with that. I think at the moment SL3 and SL360 files are compatible - so you could use either to open the file. Unfortunately versions aren’t backward compatible.
Hi.
Thank you. If I don't have a way to know
If I choose to upgrade to sl3 and the file is 360 will I be able to open it and work on it and save it in sl3?
Storyline 3 can open files from Storyline 360, as long as the SL360 file doesn't include features not included in Storyline 3.
So for example, if a new trigger is introduced into SL360 and you use it in your course, that file will no longer open in SL3. You could remove the use of that trigger, and then it should open normally.
