Re: scratch won't load project

Is this on the web site or when you are working in Scratch?  There are a lot of projects on the web site that won't load in my browser.  I don't know why - yet.

Re: scratch won't load project

Projects that don't load on the browser are typically because they exceed Java's memory limits. This is typically due to  music and/or images which make the project too big for the default limits of the Java Virtual Machine. You can see if this is the problem by seeing the Java  console's output.  You can get the Java console by right clicking on the Java icon on the system's tray (in Windows).

Re: scratch won't load project

could it do with the amount of scripts because I've saved it before and it hasn't broken and it broke when I was making it.

Re: scratch won't load project

it could be because of importing big files such as music or big images, i don't think the number of scripts would cause it

the files around 600 kilobytes, that's not causing it

Please, watch the language  smile  - One last thing to try, if you haven't already...start up a new blank Scratch project and try importing the one that won't open.  Maybe you can recover some of it.
