This is how all iSO apps work with local data. You can only write to that specific app's Documents or Temp directories as part of the app sandboxing. Temp is cleared by the OS automatically, I think when the app is closed.

With PdParty, the built in web server provides access to the Documents directory. RjDJ worked in the opposite sense, as Joe says, in that it looked for existing scenes as zipped bundles form the RjDj website or from a local custom RjDj webserver Python script running on your computer. The latter is how I would test RjDj scenes I wrote on my machine.

Hey Patrick,

You can download assets to the apps data directory. The patches are probably stored on a server somewhere as bundles. At least that's how it was done at RjDj. 

Cheers,
Joe
