Where 64-bit application?
Don't know why there is still only a 32-bit application available. What is this August 2001? Here we are 18 years later and with 64-bit multi-core processors. I don't even think that this applicatio...
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.
Updating a 32 bit app to a 64 bit app is a huge undertaking. Both technically and time/money wise for Articulate. With that understood, the Storyline app in 32 bit version on 64 bit systems is sluggish to use (especially UI response), prone to repeated crashes and can only address 2 Gb on memory. Its state is so bad stability wise that we have stopped using it! We now use Rise and only import a few animations from Storyline. Articulate, if you dont make the investment in a modern 64 bit app, you will have people looking for alternatives just for these "technical" reasons.
