Im on a macintosh computer with that version of scratch and every time now i try to add something to my project it always comes up with the same message!
Warning! Squeak is almost out of memory!
Low space detection is now disabled. It will be restored when you close or proceed from this error notifier. Don't panic, but do proceed with caution.
Here are some suggestions:
ƒ If you suspect an infinite recursion (the same methods calling each other again and again), then close this debugger, and fix the problem.
ƒ If you want this computation to finish, then make more space available (read on) and choose "proceed" in this debugger. Here are some ways to make more space available...
> Close any windows that are not needed.
> Get rid of some large objects (e.g., images).
> Leave this window on the screen, choose "save as..." from the screen menu, quit, restart the Squeak VM with a larger memory allocation, then restart the image you just saved, and choose "proceed" in this window.
ƒ If you want to investigate further, choose "debug" in this window. Do not use the debugger "fullStack" command unless you are certain that the stack is not very deep. (Trying to show the full stack will definitely use up all remaining memory if the low-space problem is caused by an infinite recursion!).

When you have gigantic scripts, you can sometimes get that message... is that the problem?

Maybe uninstall scratch, then run the installer again.
i don't think anything is wrong with scratch,
can you give us any more information about the projetc you were making e.g.
how many scripts?
how many sprites?
how many big costumes?
how many sounds?

If you save the game, it seems to free up a of of memory. Just save often. And it isn't physical memory (i.e. images, sounds) that squeak is running low on, its computer memory (basically the program is using up a LOT of cpu).
Also this is not a necropost, still relevant.
