64-Bit Storyline 360
Is there a way to access a 64-bit version of Storyline 360? I noticed what I have installed through the 360 suite is only 32-bit and I'm finding that I may be reaching a ceiling with performance whi...
Hi Everyone!
Great news! I'm happy to share that we just released Storyline 360 (version 3.82.31354.0), which includes a new 64-bit version of Storyline 360! Harness the processing power in modern computers with 64-bit Storyline 360. Large, media-rich courses benefit from increased stability and faster performance!
To use 64-bit Storyline 360, please update your Articulate 360 desktop app, then click the Install button next to the Storyline 360 app with the 64-bit and beta labels. The Install button will change to an Open button when the installation is complete.
This was highly requested, so we hope it serves you in your course creation! If you run into any snags, don't hesitate to contact our team in a support case.
I think windows 12 will drop before we get the support you'd expect from $1000+ Per user software.
Captivate's running 64 bit - Might be time for that change..
I must say I've never considered Captivate before as I was so satisfied with Articulate, but I may have to scope it out now. As it is now I am currently paying more than 1000 euro a year for software which routinely crashes and which the developers aren't planning to fix
Woah, woah, woah... calm down there Shannon. Take a deep breath... breathe in.... and slowly, let it out.... there... you should be feeling better now.
That was quite a scare you gave us. Whew. There's no need to be so... uh, hasty!As bad as some of the quirks in Storyline are, let us not get into the <bleurgh>... sorry, I just threw up in my mouth a little... nightmare <starts frantically scratching bald patch> that is <takes deep breath - whimpers - eye twitches> the "C" word.
Oh really?! Is it that bad? As I mentioned in my last comment, I've honestly never even looked at Captivate, but my recent issues were making me wonder if I should.

I've used Captivate, Lectora and Storyline. Lately I use Storyline because it is far superior with tracking branching. Pros and cons to all of them, but from the ability to have ultimate control Lectora is the best for me. Plus doesn't have the issue with running out of memory due to being 32 bit only that Storyline has. I don't want to migrate my current work due to size, but may have to out of necessity. I mean come on, how Storyline not be 64 bit yet? Requesting that feature update just keeps falling on deaf ears.
It genuinely gave me a giggle!
I loved the Storyline software, relatively easy to use, makes sense and is quick to produce; however, in today's media-intensive crowds through videos, interactions, animated gifs etc. Storyline dies.
Currently working on a project -
- ~130 VO's approximately
- 1-1.5 hours.
- Compressed slides (from approx 180 - > sub 100) etc,
- used Jpeg and PNG's, gifs,
- 12x videos
As soon as I attempt to preview the slide to QA/QC, the software stalls and won't move past 50%; I have to kill the process to get back in. I know it's not hardware - Running an i9, 3070RTX, 32Gb Ram, etc.
Let's look at this seriously for a moment - browse through the feature requests etc., and you'll see people asking for features that have been standard in other software packages for years; quite a lot have had no moment for up to 5 years (this thread included) - The moderates response is always the same - Tell us what you want, head over the feature request page and log your request; or I've raised that request on your behalf.
We are paying $1000+ a year in sub fees for a software package that's only running at 50-75% of the competition. There are many other options other than the C-word, but at least with adobe, as expensive as it is, and non-intuitive software, they offer a monthly sub fee with software that covers 90% if not more of the requests.
- 360 images
- 360 videos
- VR headset supports
- 64 bit
- better VTT/Closed captions/Translation.
I know I only stay with Storyline due to a lack of time to learn new software and rebuild my entire portfolio/library into a new software package. I can only assume that many others within this community would be in a similar predicament.
Hear hear!
