        @DirtBagXon Did you compile with the -fsigned-char changes added yesterday, and it still failed?

        I didn't, good catch, just recompiled and both ROMS run - bingo.

        Seems to be a Pi caveat:

        Apparently there is/was a performance impact:

              Try this as user pi:

              cd /home/pi/singe
              
              mkdir -p /home/pi/.daphne/singe /home/pi/.daphne/sound /home/pi/.daphne/pics
              
              cp pics/singeme.bmp /home/pi/.daphne/pics/
              cp pics/gamenowook.bmp ~/.daphne/pics/
              cp sound/grumble.wav /home/pi/.daphne/sound/
              
              export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/pi/singe:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
              
              /home/pi/singe/singe.bin /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe -framefile /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.txt -homedir /home/pi/.daphne -datadir /media/usb0/roms/daphne -x 800 -y 600

                --Command line is: /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/daphne.bin maddog vldp -nohwaccel -framefile /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog.sh/maddog.txt -homedir /opt/retropi$

                You are running the daphne.bin binary instead of singe.bin and trying to run a singe game.

                Also:

                ../singe/maddog.sh/maddog.txt
                

                Wait, doesn't the RetroPie daphne have singe support in it, like the DavidGriffiths one? I use the DG version, and my command line is

                /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/daphne.bin singe vldp -framefile /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/timegal.singe/timegal.txt -script /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/timegal.singe/timegal.singe -x 1360 -y 768

                  so i did all of that
                  now im getting this on my command -

                  
                  pi@retropie:~/singe $ /home/pi/singe/singe.bin /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe -framefile /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.txt -homedir /home/pi/.daphne -datadir /media/usb0/roms/daphne -x 800 -y 600

                  Setting alternate home dir:
                  /home/pi/.daphne
                  /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe
                  Script /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe does not exist.
                  Bad command line or initialization problem (see daphne_log.txt for details).
                  To run SINGE, you must specify which script to run.
                  
                  e.g. singe myscript.singe
                  
                  

                  cant i run it with .sh file from the es?

                  and how do i switch daphne.bin to singe.bin ?

                    I thought the RetroPie version didn't have the Singe library, otherwise this thread wouldn't have been created ?

                    The DavidGriffith repo indeed does, as I got singe working and pushed it back to David. It is however an older version of singe.

                    The version above is a standalone version of Singe.

                    @shavecat - Seems a little unfamiliar with this so was trying to get the standalone version working....

                        The error is there:

                        Script /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe does not exist.
                        

                        I'm guessing on your filenames and locations, so you need to fill in the blanks ;)

                                            @DirtBagXon don't remember why i didn't use yours, some issue with lower case/upper case, and -homedir/-datadir in command line... was over a month ago and i finally got DG version working without having to use batch files. so i didn't go further
