Re: What file extension will Scratch use in 2.0?
I don't know! Perhaps it's yet to be decided? Since 2.0 will be a lot more web-based, with less of a need for downloading, the extension will probably be basically irrelevant, anyhow.

But there's going to be an offline version.
This is a temporary signature. It will exist until I think of something witty.

Like Dinoclor said, there will be an offline version, and the ability to download. (otherwise there would be no offline remixing, which would discourage some people to remix, and that’s not what the ST wants) And they’re going to have to make a new extension.

I believe it's going to be SB2.

According to Lightnin, it will not be .sb
Instead, it will be something else.

I read that Scratch will no longer use .sb files, so what now?
My understanding is that it will be a totally different file format. I'm not sure what the extension will be...or even if the format has been totally specified at this point. The focus at the moment is in getting the online features working first. The off-line ability will come later.

I realize that, but there will be less of a need to download, and most people will probably just do it online - hence, for them, the file extension is irrelevant.

But it isn’t for me. That’s why I’m asking, because I’d prefer to use the downloadable version.

Ah. Well, I'm not sure it's decided upon yet.

If you are having trouble with simple counting, use the following mnemonic device: 1 comes before 2 comes before 5,280 comes before 523,860,759 comes after the square root of -153 comes before π. This will make your previous counting problems seem like no big deal.

Using the alpha? I don't have it, so I can't help you there.

I made a topic earlier about the Alpha, and the Scratch Team said it doesn’t exist. 
Are they trying to hide it from us?
