Reduce size of Exported LMS file
I currently have a course that needs to be less than 50Mb to fit in our LMS. The current exported SCORM 1.2 version is over 66Mb. There are no videos in this course, just a few Rise scenarios. I have replaced all pictures with low res pics and the size of the exported course actually went up. Any ideas to reduce the size of the course other than removing content or splitting between courses?
Update- I was using multiple Scenario blocks, with a different character for each Scenario. The exported file will download ALL the images for each character (about 1.5 MB each) . By using the same character across most of my scenarios, I was able to get it under 50MB.
Hi Michael!
Would you mind if we had a look at the LMS output file? Our team can take a peek at the assets folder and hopefully identify why the file size is increasing.
If that works for you, you can send it to us privately by opening a case.
i Have a scorm file that is 746MB and trying to upload to LearnWorlds LMS. Getting no support from LearnWorlds. Wondering how I split up a scorm file and what that ultimately looks like for end user in LMS
Hi Timothy,
I understand you need to make your SCORM file smaller. We'd love to take a closer look to determine how the size can be reduced. Would you mind sharing a copy of your file with us? You can share it with us privately using this link.
Once we receive your file, one of our customer support engineers will reach out and work with you directly.
Hi, I'm having the same issue, every time I use the scenarios in Rise it makes the course size so huge I can't upload it into our LMS (same 50MB limit as above).
I've just used 2 scenarios in one course - came out as 66MB, removed them took it down to 24MB - this and the word count is making the scenario block unusable.
Hi there, Dawn. We're having a look at how scenario blocks impact file size. I'll tag this conversation to be updated when I have more information.
I'm having the same issue!
Thanks for chiming in, David. We'll share an update here once we know more about why this is happening!
Okay, thank you very much.
Hello I am having the same issue too. Would it be possible to help me please?
