Thanks... I'm going to run some tests on a modified html launch page in the LMS I have access to. This seems the most straightforward to me, although I agree. Not knowing exactly which LMS my client is using and not being able to test within their LMS makes me worried to try this option.
I'm going to hold off on your suggestion for building a branch-aware cptx that incorporates the other languages as "chapters" that get ignored once a branch/language is chosen.
I'm going to wait for Lilybiri's suggestions on what settings might work for "open new project" triggers using a cptx-based "menu." I think this could work if I get the settings right. Although I'd be curious to know why she thinks linking as captivate program is better than the .exe export, which could really reduce the size
The simplest way of doing this is to create a master project folder and publish all of your specific language projects to SCORM in specific folders, do not publish to zip.
You create a non-SCORM project or html page that has the links to the specific language folders. You could call this menu.html.
Now you need some SCORM files.
You need an imsmanifest.xml to create the LMS link to your menu.html and a metadata.xml with the course title and description.
We actually already have file structures with the manifest and associated SCORM files already set up to do this.
The manifest looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no" ?>
<manifest identifier= "SYS197-MANIFEST" version= "1.0"
