      @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:
      https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46463064/what-causes-a-char-to-be-signed-or-unsigned-when-using-gcc/46463173

      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 -

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

                                            Mmm.. I don't see why it isn't seeing those .bmp files.

                                            Where (which directory), and which user are you running the command as ?
