      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....

        mkdir  /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/singe
        ln -s /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/singe /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/singe
        
        cd /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/singe
        ln -s ../timegal.daphne timegal
        ln -s ../hayate.daphne hayate
        ...
        

        No -datadir needed in daphne.sh - edited above

          roms
          |-- daphne
          |    |
          |    |-- timegal.daphne

          |         +-- timegal  <<- link (ln -s ../timegal.daphne timegal)
          

          What was missing was the symlink below:

          ln -s /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/singe /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/singe
          

          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.

                      • Is this on an external drive? FAT32 partition?
                      • 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

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

                                    But I would always use ext filesystems ;)

                                        Infact, in might only need the peripheral files in the copied directory within singe - Put all files in there to start with, when that works try taking out the large video files etc, and see what it needs.

                                        The errors were only complaining about the peripheral files, I THINK it still read the video/audio from the timegal.daphne directory due to the framefile....

                                          I'm thinking this might work:

                                          Of course in FAT32 scenario you can also have the *.* files in both places for simplicity and archival purposes.

                                            @dirtbagxon Still not loading. It's going back to the errors about reading the wav files. I re-transferred those files but didn't change the situation.
