Maybe noone got the point of my posting?
The point is, that I add files and folder to the standalone via the "Copy
files" tab
in the "Standalone Application Settings", however some of these files are
missing
in the final runtime. However instead they can be found in ->
specialfolderpath("engine")
What is happening here and why does LC not copy everything to the RESOURCES
folder?
