Right, the standalone builder requires that the engine file is named 
"MetaCard". The problem is probably with the plist file inside the 
bundle. Open that in a text editor and replace all instances of 
"MetaCardCarbonMach-0" with plain "MetaCard". Then rename the engine 
inside Contents/Mac OS to "MetaCard". That should fix both launching and 
standalone building.

Backwards. :)
