I made a simple midi application, that has a bunch of control modules fed by hardware midi controllers. The setting, how the midi data gets processed is save in a pattrstorage inside each controller module. Each control module and therfore also its preset storage is placed inside a bpatcher. All of this works without a glitch within Max7 (I am on 6 and started the Demo two days ago).

However, when I make a standalone application from that project (from the project window > build collective/application), the created app does not save to the pattrstorage. To be more precize, it does work with the app running, but as soon, as I close and restart the app, all new preset information is gone.

The saving works manually with a UI button, that sends the "write Preset#" to each pattrstorage.

In the max7 project, the data is stored inside the project window and gets automatically sorted to the data folder upon restart. In the App folder, however, I can not find a "data" folder.

I am new to making apps from max patchers. I did not find much help information about creating apps and none related to my problem, so I would be happy, if someone could point me to the right way!
