Hi there. (1st post / french speaker / writter)
When I load the tutorial I get an error message, “Please check your internet connection and check the tutorial is valid”
See here: mon_espace/ at master · sbergeroncp/mon_espace (github.com)
raw.githubusercontent.com/sbergeroncp/mon_espace/master/tuto_1.md
Not sure what I am doing wrong.
Is anyone else having this issue?
Please help! 
@sbergeroncp we have a limit on the maximum file size for tutorials and looks like tuto_6.md is too big. Make sure all files are under 128k
@richard ok fine !
How can I reduce the file size for my tutorials ?
I saw a map with steps. Is there any chance you got a solid tutorial to learn ?
Really appreciate your help !
@sbergeroncp well the easiest way is just to remove the background image you have in all of your code snippets; that’s what’s causing the large file.
If you don’t want to remove it, you can instead move the image into an asset pack.
Here are instructions for creating an asset pack:
"assetPack": true,
Now that you have an asset pack, you can add it to your tutorial just like you would an extension. Add an annotation like this to the bottom of your markdown file:
```package
my_asset_pack=github:my_github_username/my_asset_pack
```
Important: Make sure that the name on the left hand side of the = matches the name of your extension from step 1
Now, instead of including the background image in your code snippets, you can reference it like so:
```blocks
scene.setBackgroundImage(my_asset_pack.background1)
```
If you have other images you want to include, you can include them in the same manner!
Not going to lie. Have you any video tutorial ? Would be helpful.
Hi there. Really appreciate your help.
I tried this.
I create a new project named : myasset
I created a sprite named : vaisseau.
I wrote the line under description, but it always goes down to preferredEditor.
And it does’nt work.
Bonjour @sbergeroncp et bienvenue !
Vous êtes invités à écrire en français ici. Nous pouvons traduire assez facilement, surtout si cela ne vous dérange pas de notre mauvaise grammaire ! 
Dans le fichier pxt.json, l’ordre des attributs n’a pas d’importance. L’éditeur les place dans l’ordre qu’il veut, mais le sens ne change pas.
Avez-vous essayé d’ajouter la nouvelle ressource à votre didacticiel ? Recevez-vous le même message d’erreur, « Please check your internet connection and check the tutorial is valid » ?
J’essaierai d’y travailler lundi pour vous et de vous donner un exemple concret. Merci de votre patience !
Hello, sbergeroncp and welcome!
You are welcome to write in French here. We can translate rather easily, especially if you do not mind our poor grammar!
In the file pxt.json, the order of the attributes does not matter. The editor puts them in an order that it likes, but the meaning does not change.
Have you tried adding the asset to your tutorial? Do you get the same error, “Please check your internet connection and check the tutorial is valid?”
I’ll try to spend some time on this on Monday for you and get you a working example. Thank you for your patience!
Merci énormément de prendre du temps pour répondre à nombreuses questions. J’ai créé plusieurs tutoriels pour les micro:bit.
Just take a look !
Est-ce possible pour toi de créer un petit tutoriel avec des captures d’écran? (screenshots) Il y a quelque chose que je ne comprends pas. Merci encore une fois !
Salut, @sbergeroncp !
Voici mon tutoriel complet.
J’ai vu vos tutoriels pour les micro:bit. Ils sont tellement incroyables ! Brillant ! Beau travail !
Attendez s.v.p. pendant que j’écris des instructions pour vous. Alors, vous pouvez certainement regarder le code source à GitHub avant que je finis le document pour vous.
Hi, sbergeroncp!
Here is my completed tutorial.
I looked at your tutorials for micro:bit. They’re really incredible! Excellent! Great work!
Please wait while I write instructions for you. Anyway, you certainly can look at the source code on GitHub before I finish the document for you.
Hi there !
Where is located the package ? in which file ?
mes_atouts=github:alex-kulcsar/mes_atouts
Any screenshots ? That will be helpful for my students class.
@sbergeroncp i’ll record a video for you when I have a sec
@sbergeroncp here you go!
Allô @sbergeroncp !
J’ai commencé un nouveau site Web où je rassemble certaines de mes pensées et instructions qui n’apparaissent pas encore dans la documentation officielle de MakeCode. La première page développe les conseils que j’ai écrits pour aider @rymc88 avec ses tutoriels.[1] Je vais commencer à écrire un tutoriel sur la création de skillmaps, de tutoriels et de packs de ressources ( « asset packs » ) cet après-midi.
Si vous souhaitez m’aider en relisant mes documents en français, faites-le moi savoir et je serai heureux de vous ajouter au référentiel GitHub en tant que contributeur.
De plus, si l’un d’entre vous parle couramment l’espagnol (ou d’autres langues !) et souhaite m’aider avec la traduction, faites-le moi savoir !
[1] Tutorial Creators - #41 by AlexK
Hi, sbergeroncp!
I’ve started a new website where I am collecting some of my thoughts and instructions that do not yet appear in the official MakeCode documentation. The first page expands on the tips that I wrote to help rymc88 with his tutorials.[1] I will start writing a tutorial on creating skillmaps, tutorials, and asset packs this afternoon.
https://robo-technical-group.github.io/pxt-instructions-lab/
If you would like to help me by proofreading my French documents, then just let me know and I will be happy to add you to the GitHub repo as a contributor.
Also, if any of you are fluent in Spanish (or other languages!) and would like to help me with translation, then let me know!
Sure ! Hope we can collaborate soon !
@richard thanks a lot !
Very helpful !
I figured out how to use asset for the Sprite.
scene.setBackgroundImage(tutorial_asset_exemple.background_1)
let mySprite = sprites.create(tutorial_asset_exemple.spaceship_1, SpriteKind.Player)
tutorial_asset_exemple=github:sbergeroncp/tutorial_asset_exemple
Hi, @sbergeroncp !
Remove the last two parameters from the sprites.create() call. The version with the extra parameters cannot be translated into blocks.
```blocks
let alpha: Sprite = null
game.onUpdateInterval(1000, function () {
alpha = sprites.create(tutorial_asset_exemple.ennemi_1, SpriteKind.Player)
})
```
Thx for the answer. Any alternative ? Students wont get it if the block is not the same.
