Captivate 2019 Multi-SCO publish weightage issue

Hello,

I'm using the Simple Remediation option in the Multi-SCO packager and I keep getting the MultiSCO Error message "Total weightage of the modules must add up to 100%."  I have 36 modules; 28 of them have a weightage of 3% and 8 of them have a weightage of 2% for a total of 100%.  In these 36 modules I have 75 individual zip files.  The first module has 4 zip files for the Content, and 1 for the Post-test.  The rest of the modules have 1 zip file for the Content and 1 zip file for the Post-test.

 

Any suggestions to what I'm doing wrong, or any known issues with the MultiSCO packager? 

 

Thank you so much for your time!

    What score have you set for each quiz question in these modules?  The default score in Captivate is 10 points on a quiz question slide.  However, sometimes I have found that this can cause issues because the total number of points reaches some kind of 'tipping point'. 

     

    Just as a suggestion, try republishing the SCORMs again with all quiz questions set to 1 point instead of 10 points and see whether that means you are able to include more modules before the packager complains.

      Thank you for the response, Mr. Ward!  Yes, sir, the quiz questions were all set to the default of 10 points.  I just now went through each question slide and changed them to 1 point, and republished the SCORMs again.  I'm still getting the same weightage error message from the MultiSCO packager.  I also tried deleting down from 36 modules again, after setting the points to 1, and it's still maxing out at 13 modules.  

       

      The 'tipping point' thing definitely makes sense. I'm starting to think Captivate just dislikes me lol

      OK.  If the issue is not the total number of points then perhaps there is something about the setup in the weighting of modules that is throwing things out.

       

      What do you see when you look at the weightage figures in the Multi-SCORM Packager screen after you have set up all modules?  Do the weightage figures add up to 100%

        Update:  Reinstalled Captivate, with the latest updates, and resaved and zipped each file.  Tried to package half of the courses (18 modules) with the Multi-SCO packager.  Still received the weightage error message, so I deleted a module until the Multi-SCO packager would let me publish.  I was able to publish 13 (of the 36 modules) at one time.  This isn't a solution to my problem, but I just wanted to give more info about the issue.

         

        Again, thank you for your time.
