Using custom characters for Scenarios in Rise
I've been playing around with the new scenarios lesson in Rise. They are awesome for scenario based learning with dynamic feedback. However the characters currently offered are kind of limited, specifically for my industry.
I really wanted to use custom characters in my company's uniforms. It may not be officially supported by Articulate, but swapping the stock characters for custom characters is actually pretty easy. I made this quick video to show you how you can do it too.
Reach out if you have questions.

This is a great tutorial. I want to use a scenario block within a Rise course, rather than stand alone. Would I have to publish the whole course and find the relevant files in order to change the characters in the scenario block?

Hi Madeleine! Yes, you can use the Scenario Block within your Rise course. Go to All Blocks>Interactive>Scenario.
Here's a screenshot for your reference:
Let me know if this is what you're looking for!

No, I was wanting to know if I could change the character images and still use it within a Rise course. The video shows you how to change the characters images once you have published the course. I was checking whether you have to publish the who rise course then go in and find the images used in the scenario block?

Could I see the video? It says that I'm unathorized.
I wanted to replace a standard character in a Rise scenario for the face/draw of my customer. Thanks. - JeffreyCrespoCommunity Member
Hi Matt, your video says "private" I don't have permission to watch. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi Matt, thanks for sharing this. It looks great! Do you have any information on your photo settings. I'm going to be making my own employee characters as well and I'm hoping to have some guidelines on the file before I shoot. Thanks!

Where is Rise at to add the Illustrated character styles that we have in Storyline?

This is super helpful, but I can't even figure out how to export the content to do the edits! My menu looks different to the video!
Hi Road Safety and Drug Education!
It sounds like you've hit a snag when trying to export Rise 360 content. I'd be happy to assist with that!
Not to worry if the menu options appear different! Recently in Rise 360, the 'Export' button was renamed to 'Publish'. If you would like to follow the steps Matt shared in his tutorial, you would need to click Publish, then select LMS.
Please let me know if you have any more questions!
