      @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:

                    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

                      --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 -

                        
                        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

                        /home/pi/.daphne
                        /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe
                        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 ?

                          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:

                              I'm guessing on your filenames and locations, so you need to fill in the blanks ;)

                                      got it but now i have that

                                      /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
                                      --SINGE DAPHNE engine 1.0.11.1
                                      --Command line is: /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

                                      Setting alternate home dir:

                                      /media/usb0/roms/daphne/singe/maddog/maddog.singe
                                      Setting screen width to 800
                                      Setting screen height to 600
                                      Could not load bitmap : pics/singeme.bmp
                                      Could not load bitmap : pics/gamenowook.bmp
                                      Video initialization failed!
                                      
                                      

                                      So now it is not finding the daphne pics directory, let's see if you have it elsewhere:

                                      find / -name gamenowook.bmp
