Scratch

But what if then your project is to big?

What if you have a project that is bigger?  You can "cut" the project in to smaller projects to stuff your entire project on the web.  Here are blocks to show you:

<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<if><( <{ project }> <>> 10 MB )>
<set{ projects }to( <{ smaller projects }>
<end>

Umm since were talking about files,you see,I saved alot of my projects and well theres too many files in my folder!And I need to know how to delete them because it's getting junky in there sooo Please,Please help!

What does "Failed: Serialization: buffer too small for compressed data" mean?  And, Scratch won't let me download a 1,882 KB project on!!!!

whats the max memory allowed for a progect? i'm telling a sprite when flag clicked forever if touching sprite 21 swich to costume a. but when sprite 21 hits it, nothing happens. maby it's my computer or mabey its becuase i have 53 sprites, each with at least 6 scripts and with 2 costumes but the file is 1.92 MB someone help please

Why must I download some projects online in order to play them?  I am worried my game may end up too big and may need to be divided into 9 segments.  And, would it be better if I had 10 characters with 10 costumes, or one character with 100 costumes?

what about for avatars?i re-colored but i can't upload it to the site as my avatar.it is a jpg but i can't upload it.

The file types accepted are jpeg, png, bmp and gif.  The max file size that will be accepted is 90800 bytes.  So, if your file type is one of those listed above and the size is under 90 kb, it should go up.  If it doesn't...you may have some odd variant of the file type that is causing trouble, try using an image editor to convert it to another one of the accepted file type and try again.  Be sure to clear the cache after every attempt.  Hope that helps!

Currently the limit is 10 MB.  You can reduce the size of a project by going to Extras and compress images and sound.

Has it been bigger before? My Tunnel Adventures is 11,230 KB. It was uploaded a year ago, though.

I forgot... my Star Wars Sprite collection is 18,246 KB, and that's like a few months ago. Weird..

That's odd. I don't believe that the limit was ever different, though I may be completely wrong.

I was wondering... the game that i'm working on right now is pretty big, and I haven't even uploaded near the 500 minimum backgrounds. I was wondering, if it is over 10 mb when I release it, is it possible to upload the game in steps and than download and save all of the projects and background packs, import all of the projects into the game itself and run it in scratch there? A bit of work, but it could be the best it can do.

just do what i would do, break the project into smaller versions, and post them seperatly, like part one and part two.

Like what Kuroi_Metsuki said, I can't get old and unwanted projects out of my scratch folder. It's getting super junky in thereand kinda clogging up my computer. I tried Coolstuff's idea.... how do i drag them out and into th recycle bin?n HELP!!

Go into your documents and find the folder called "Scratch Projects." You should be able to delete what you want from there.
