      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.

                          Seems to be a Pi caveat:

mkdir -p /home/pi/.daphne/singe /home/pi/.daphne/sound /home/pi/.daphne/pics

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 ;)
