publish to USB drive?
I'm creating a module in Storyline to be presented at a conference. The conference center has spotty internet service. The module includes videos and attachments. The obvious solution would be to publish to CD, but I don't have a CD writer on my computer, which is ok because she doesn't have a CD player on HER computer.
So my questions:
- Can I use the Publish to CD option to publish to a USB drive?
- If not, is there some way I can get the presentation to play from a USB drive in such a way that she can still access the attachments and videos?
- If not, and we need to get her access to a CD player and me to a CD writer, will the attachments and videos even work with the Publish to CD option?

Yes publish to CD and run the exe file from there

Quick piggy-back question to help my understanding: Will Katie's approach work if videos are included via "web object" or via "from website" options?

I'd like to know that, too, Mel.

The flash projector (the .exe file) should allow the webobjects to load or embedded videos

I don't understand the answer suggested. I want to make a course available on a flashdrive. What's the best way to do that?

Hi Nicole,
You'll want to use the Publish to CD option.
You'll then launch the course using the Launch_Story.exe file that is produced.

Is there a way to have the course open automatically once the USB drive is inserted?
Hi Julie and welcome to Heroes!
There isn't any way to set that within Storyline. You could always submit it as a Feature request.

just need to know asap or will not go ahead with my presentation
Hi Josephine,
The autorun file that's included is only set up to automatically run in when published and burned to a CD not for a USB drive.
