      I was intrigued, as the compatibility list did state "work, with issues".

      That does save me some trouble then :)

        getting this on my runcommand.info -

          --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

          Is that a real directory ?

          As correct command line, should look something like this:

          --Command line is: /opt/retropie/emulators/singe/singe.bin /home/pi/.daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe -framefile /home/pi/.daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.txt -homedir /home/pi/.daphne -datadir /home/pi/.daphne -sound_buffer 2048 -volume_nonvldp 5 -volume_vldp 30 -x 800 -y 600

          You probably need to review you're using the correct run.sh for singe.

              See above for format of singe command, I edited previous response.

              You were specifying a frame file at this location:

              /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog.sh/maddog.txt

              What does

              ls -al /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog.sh/maddog.txt

              say ?

                  The only external thing you need to worry about is the LD_LIBRARY_PATH

                  echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<directory with libsinge.so and libvldp2.so>:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

                  Check directory is in there now:

                  echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

                  So looking at your previous screenshot, I am guessing:

                  ./singe_binary_location  /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe  -framefile /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.txt -homedir /media/usb0/roms/daphne -datadir /media/usb0/roms/daphne -x 800 -y 600

                  I just don't know where your singe.bin and libsinge.so and libvldp2.so files are, otherwise I have filled it in with above info....

                      I have 2 badlands roms in my roms folder :-

                      badlandsp.zip (9kb)
                      bl_hit_12f.bin
                      bl_hit_4f.bin
                      bl_hit_6a.bin
                      bl_hit_7a.bin
                      bl_hit_7c.bin
                      bl_hit_9c.bin

                      badlands.zip (13kb)
                      badlands.a13
                      badlands.a14
                      badlands.c4
                      badlands.c8

                      badlands.daphne
                      badlands-pc.dat
                      badlands-pc.m2v
                      badlands-pc.ogg

                      Hope that helps

                      Both badlands.zip and badlandp.zip ROMS work with daphne in linux.

                      Doing a quick compile on the Pi I still see the:

                      Write to ffff with 0

                      issues on both ROMS. So there is still an issue here.....

                        You need to replace this: <directory with libsinge.so and libvldp2.so>

                        With the directory name/path where those files are...

                        e.g.

                        export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/pi/singe:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

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

                          @skj was the game working for you prior to these changes yesterday?

                          EDIT: actually @DirtBagXon I forgot, but thank you for accepting the PR for the controls!

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

                                          --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

                                            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

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 ?
