Jurassic Park Course

Jordan, this is the best, thank you so much for sharing with us how it was done!

Wow! This course is so much fun. I got eaten, but I loved it.

Thank you for a great project.  I can see many applications to help learn in a fun, creative atmosphere.

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Awesome!

Completely blown away.  Thanks for sharing.

Jordan, jest to najlepszy, bardzo dziękuję za dzielenie.

thanks Jordan

Great job Jordan. I have been playing around with this sort of thing. Looks fantastic. 

That was awesome, well done Jordan!

Fantastic! Thanks for sharing!!!

Great work Jordan, really impressive. Makes me eager to learn more!

Thanks Jordan, I was searching for a solution to make a panoramic view, using an rectangle background and think your approach is great.

Jordan - just wanted to add my thanks for sharing your fabulous idea with the articulate community - it's amazing and has really inspired me as I begin a brand new project on health and safety that I was short of inspiration for! I won't pinch your dinosaurs idea but certainly the idea of following a path to escape danger has got my mind working in overdrive! Thank you!  

Hey folks, so I have been using this for inspiration to try and create something similar, and have got most of it figured out, the thing I am stuck on it being able to recreate the clickable signs.

I've created the shape to click on, but cannot get it to move at the same speed as the background.  The animation path is the same length and the times are all the same.  Any guesses where it might be going wrong?

This is really awesome.  Thank you for sharing your development process.  I want to try and use this for with revisions to create a product line training course.

HI Steve. The way it is done is that you create your object (sign or whatever it is with it's different states) and then you group it with the background that you move as one. You don't move the item separately. The nice thing is that it retains it's interactivity and you can move it with the entire background. Richard Hill in his demo explains this idea well but he calls it nested animation (you will have to play the game to get that learning piece). I am not certain that is how Jordan has done but it works well. I will see if I can provide a short demo.

Hi Steve, I had a very similar issue to what you are having. I had grouped the signs to the background but had hotspots on separate motion paths in front of this. Like you I was finding that these hotspots were progressing at a slightly slower speed. 

To get around this just involved a lot of trial and error of moving the hotspots starting position until it moved in sync with the sign below. 

It sounds like the method that Richard had described should work better though. It was very frustrating having to test the positioning over and over again.

Thank's guys, I had been trying to useRichard's idea before emailing, but think my issue was I was grouping the HS and then adding them to the background group.  Simply putting them in the background group works.  I've switched out the vehicle for a walking man.  

Such an awesome idea!  Well done Jordan, my 3yo daughter loves playing the "dinosaur game" :)

Very nicely done! I'm having trouble getting the music and quiz to play, though? Do you know why this is happening?

Hi Karen, 

This could be a bandwidth issue, are you able to do an internet speed test to double check this?

It could also be an issue with the browser, are you on desktop or mobile and which browser are you using?

Thanks for the feedback. I'm using Internet Explorer on a laptop. I had the same issue of no sound on the Storyline file itself after I downloaded the example, though.

I am completely blown away by this. Wow!
