Still no 64-bit Storyline 360 in 2023??
We're evaluating S360 for a project later this year and are generally very happy with capabilities, however one big issue keeps coming up that may be a deal breaker and force us to go in a different...
Hi everyone!
I'm happy to share that today, we just shipped 64-bit Storyline 360!
To use 64-bit Storyline 360, make sure to 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.
Since this version is in beta, we'd love for you to test it out and share your feedback and experience with us by replying to this discussion.
hi everyone
Thanks for the information about the release of Articulate Storyline 360 64bit. I immediately installed it and did the first comparison test with the original 32bit version. I published a small course with four slides, but within one there was a video with a length of about 21 minutes and the "Adaptive" functionality was set when publishing. The 32-bit version reached Review 360 in 5 minutes and 23 seconds, and the 64-bit version in 5 minutes and 16 seconds. I admit that I expected a much bigger difference. But maybe I'm just testing wrong. I am therefore asking you for information on how I can test the real increase in efficiency with the 64 bit version. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.
Thanks for sharing your test results here, Vojtech! Your test procedure is spot on, and you are seeing accurate figures on the improvement with 64-bit. The figures will probably be relatively negligible as far as performance goes for most uses of Storyline.
The chief advantage that 64-bit Storyline will give us is the ability to use more than 2 GB of memory. This should lead to far fewer "Out of Memory Exceptions" when users are working on large projects.
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Eric, thank you for your response and when, please, do you plan to restore the ability to record the screen in the 64 bit version as well?
