A very good idea! :-D

Well, actually that was the first place I was looking***, and the  
displayed error text is
DEFINITIVELY not in there!

embarrassing if I did
not know about these things ;-)

Please check the script of btn "Build" in the MC Standalone builder  
yourself.

The error text was something like this (don't remember exactly):
#####################
The following icons are missing in the icon file:

48*48 32 bit
32*32 32 bit
16*16 32 bit
####################

I have no idea what might be going on here, maybe they changed  
somehting in the engine and
adjusted the scripts of the Rev standalone?!

The new standalone script in the latest IDE worked up until version  
2.7.3!
With the same icons that are not working in 2.7.4.
