Can't upload one of my projects...

Well hi everybody. My problem is explained in the title : when I'm trying to upload the new "version" of World of Scratch Craft, a collaboration project, and Scratch says : "Failed : Unknown error"... but it's just for this game, I can upload the others.
It failed when Scratch is waiting for an answer of the site.
Maybe it's because this version is biggest than the previous, and the site can't take it... but I don't think so and I hope not, because this version is far from the final version...

Am I the only guy who have this problem and is there a solution ?

Thx

10 MB is above the limit, so if the project is >10MB, it won't upload.
Solution: Compress sounds (not images, that makes most games unplayable), delete unused costumes and sounds.

If its not over 10MB, try again later.

Okay, I compress the sounds (which are big in fact), and I try...
well no, it just take less time to show the message...
Do you talk about 10 MB or 10 Mo ?

Re: Can't upload one of my projects...

just try again later. "Failed Unknown Error" doesnt have a known solution other than to just wait it out

Re: Can't upload one of my projects...

I've tried during all day... so it's probably a site error, but is there any moderator which could give us information on the site ? Or just propose a way to find from where the problem comes ?

Re: Can't upload one of my projects...

Make sure your Project is Below 10 MB in size, otherwise the Website will just deny your request.
You can reduce the size by Compressing Sounds/Costumes/etc.

Be sure to uncheck "compress sounds and images" when uploading.  smile

The only thing I can think of now is that your File is corrupted.

You could try uploading your project on another computer.

Re: Can't upload one of my projects...

Guys if it's over 10MB it'll say "Project too large", so it's not that. Check your Internet connection.

Which OS and browser were you using? That might have been it.

Re: Can't upload one of my projects...

STOP ALL !!! IT WORK AGAIN ! (or just for this time !)
I've just tried again now, and it has uploaded !
And I can even read it with the new flash player ^^
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Anarcial/2739360
Just go try it... well actually no because there's only 1 enemy, it won't be the one of the beta version... but if you want to see it GO !
Just DL it if you want to place the characteristics of the menus at the good places ^^
Or just tell me how I can make the variables go to the places I want, that would be nice xD

You would have to drag them there and then you'll have to upload the project with the variables showing, though in Scratch 2.0, there will probably be a [go to x: ( ) y: ( )] for variables.

Yeah - looks like a database glitch.  See  this topic.
