      Can you also give the output of your timegal directory:

      ls -al /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/timegal.daphne
      

      Would be useful to see the structure is the same as mine.

            Ok, I am seeing exactly what you are seeing, I can't immediately see why it's looking for the path it's looking for.

            Will investigate....

                What was missing was the symlink below:

                And the new daphne.sh

                    @dirtbagxon yes, this structure is MUCH prettier and covers all the bases. Tested, and works as expected. Great stuff!! ...yet another day of your life sucked into the vortex of HypseuSinge.

                    Really appreciated.

                        Good deal. I was prepping a list of possibilities. Sounds like you're close now. Fingers crossed.

                            • Permissions of folders correct?
                            • Are you performing this from within daphne/singe?

                              • Yes, fat32 usb stick.
                              • I haven't messed with permissions. Is 755 fine?
                              • Yes.

                                @darksavior I'm fairly certain you can't create symlinks on FAT32. There is a thread here:

                                    Correct, you cannot create symlinks on FAT32. The filesystem doesn't support it.

                                    You can however, duplicate the data, i.e. copy timegal.daphne as timegal into the singe folder.

                                    Yes is doubling the amount of disk space, but I presume you have the same issue with lair and dle21 or ace and sae which use the same data for different versions of Dragons Lair/Space Ace ?

                                    You could also save space by linking them:

                                    ln -s lair.daphne dle21.daphne

                                    We are down to individual user cases now.

                                    There is a way around it but wasteful on disk space.

                                      @dirtbagxon I'll test that out a bit later.
                                      No, I do not have that issue with dragon's lair or space ace. I have only one folder for each game called dle21.daphneand sae.daphne

                                        Daphne games can be handled by having one main directory for everything (lair.daphne) and a separate folder called dle21.daphne that contains a sole, lonely framefile named dle21.txt and whose first line points to ../lair.daphne

                                          If it's for just two games......

                                          But I would always use ext filesystems ;)

                                            Aha, by editing the frame file! - You could also try that..... But Singe games have more than just video/audio files referenced in the framefile, they have the .singe file which references all the other bits and pieces.
