Re: URGENT. My Project won't load
It loaded for me, but it took a while. It has a huge number of scripts and sprites for a Scratch project, which is why it isn't loading for you. Does it work fine offline for you? If so, your internet connection is probably too slow for the project. If your teachers have a fast internet connection, it will probably work for them. If not, they can try to run the project offline. If they don't have Scratch, the only things you can do are to compress the project as much as possible and delete all unneccessary sprites and scripts.

Re: URGENT. My Project won't load
Thank you very much for the help, and yes it works fine offline for me. Do you think you could give me an estimate of how long it took to load?
And I'm taking it offline for now because I need to edit something, just so you know. Thanks again.

Re: URGENT. My Project won't load
It took about 20-30 seconds to load for me. Is your internet connection fast or slow? Like I said before, it would help to delete any unnecessary scripts or sprites in the project. If it still won't load, the only thing you can do is to try to run it offline. (If your internet connection is slow, downloading it could take a very long time, putting the project on a memory stick would avoid this problem.)
EDIT: I downloaded the project, and there were a huge number of broadcasts. Lots of broadcasts can slow down a project a lot.

Re: URGENT. My Project won't load
I think the main reason its not loading for you is that it is a giant scratch project, But it should still work fine off-line.

Re: URGENT. My Project won't load
Thanks everyone. My internet connection isn't usually slow, but the project never loads for me. In the future I'll use less sprites and broadcasts and all. You might be able to tell I forgot to use costumes until the end, hence the overabundance of sprites.
I turned it in with directions to download Scratch, and I gave the project to them on a memory stick. Thank you so much for helping me out.

Re: URGENT. My Project won't load
If needed, select Set single stepping.... in the edit menu. Set it to turbo.
Now run in turbo speed.
If it's a game or something that relies on input, this is best.
NEVER EVER EVAR DOO IT FOR ANIMATIONZ!!
Back in my day.... there were no laws that censored the internet... now, there are.... nah.
