As a few people have recently asked about ActionMax games, I will post here regarding the Hypseus setup. The original directory layout of ActionMax, being one of (if not the) first Singe game, was a little different to the others... For the Libretro structure setup, used on RetroPie and others, the directory structure was simplified. Within the `singe` subfolder, `singe\actionmax` folder looks like this: Then Hypseus can be run simply with this argument (e.g. 38ambushalley) : hypseus.exe singe vldp -framefile singe\actionmax\38ambushalley.txt -script singe\actionmax\38ambushalley.singe -fullscreen -manymouse This singe file structure is on the Hypseus repos in GitHub (for which you will just need to copy the your existing video/audio over). There are also .bat files for ActionMax in the zip with the Hypseus Windows package on the main repo.

There is no video I'm afraid. If there were, it would show: Unzip `Hypseus.Singe-v2.8.x-win64.zip` and `windows-batch-files-v2.8.x.zip` Obtain and put game data in the sub folders Run, perhaps edit, the .bat file Enjoy game Or install via RetroPie-Setup if Linux is your thing, that's all done for you.

Torrents get outdated quickly and there is no easy means to update content. They are not a reliable means to distribute dynamic content. The torrent @DarkVoid666 listed above is fine for Daphne content, which is static, but Singe games are updated all the time. You need look for up-to-date content from the developers source. Usually on the first post of these threads, application repositories or elsewhere.

Sinden Light Gun users will understand The adding of the external (white) border, via bezels, is problematic in this emulator. Apparently there is an upcoming version which will provide built-in support for the borders required for easy Sinden gun operation.

For any Sinden Lightgun users out there, coming soon:

Excellent news, another item from the "TODO" gone. I assume you needed to use `-novsync` on v2.8 ? Or the patched binary with VSYNC removed ? Or was that not the issue in the end?

I have updated the link on the first post in this thread. I believe the Singe data is waaay out-of-date in that torrent, so ensure you grab the latest from: https://github.com/DirtBagXon/hypseus_singe_data If I recall, most of the content in the torrent is from this forum... does anyone know what happened to maabus's mega thread... ? There isn't a GUI - it was written with running within Retro distribution frontends - Would be nice if some developer wrote a little GUI, but the complexity of settings in Daphne alone make it none trivial - Matt never released the source for Daphne Loader..... So you need to edit settings in the .bat files for Daphne, or via the Service Menu '9' for Singe games. Nope, that's not correct, although it is only a directory, I'll try and get that corrected. These should be corrected now.

Only lair2 has the 'Service Mode': http://www.daphne-emu.com/site3/faq_entry.php?id=58 For lair and ace, you will need to specify dip-switch settings via the -bank arguments (dependant on the ROM version you are running): http://www.dragons-lair-project.com/tech/pages/dl.asp http://www.dragons-lair-project.com/tech/pages/sa.asp http://www.daphne-emu.com/mediawiki/index.php/CmdLine See some examples at the top of this page ^ Not in-game in Daphne games, no. You could load the .m2v and .ogg into something like VLC: https://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_HowTo/Play_an_external_audio_track_for_a_video/ Remove the '-fullscreen' argument from the .bat file.......

@dex77 - Can you tell me what program and frame you were looking at the HVG cobra video in for this screenshot? Running the same video in Hypseus, I see this: A world of difference in quality. Are you just at an earlier frame on the zoom in, is that just a really bad frame you found ?

You may have to downscale the resolution a little for the Pi. It may struggle at full 1080p.

And here it comes: Special Edition TitanAE (Including the missing "Flight Scene"): https://mega.nz/file/Bs8SRSIR#tPlhGBTyLNbHInU22iQ6te1HEjUOqdT1Var6QrtzhoY Requires Hypseus Singe v2.8.0: https://github.com/DirtBagXon/hypseus-singe/releases/tag/v2.8.0

Absolutely, I need to re-add that level. One of the first obstacles of porting from Singe 2 as I recall. I hadn't forgotten, but wanted to get the upgraded engine and these new games sorted first. As ever thanks for the games that run on these engines Karis...

You have every right to be confused as I posted the wrong MEGA link - lol. Here is the correct one. https://mega.nz/file/o9lACZaL#f_w2NrJyLxsST5ErwzDfOknm8t6RihjpdouvO6FNAtE I'll fix the others.... Damn all these "DL" games...

I only know of one source for this MP4: https://archive.org/download/singe-dl-tv Paired with: https://mega.nz/file/o9lACZaL#f_w2NrJyLxsST5ErwzDfOknm8t6RihjpdouvO6FNAtE The M2V is also in the usual archive but maybe could get a better encode......

Good memory sir, on my TODO...... Been a little busy with all this - lol

What is very cool, and quite clever in this game, is the fact that the movement prompt sprites are encoded into the video not the overlay. Very well done.

Aha, no longer an issue.... Hypseus Singe version 2.8.0: Daphne 16bit VLDP (frame) limit constraint has been removed Singe games exceeding 65535 frames are now supported

Enjoy, dltv is actually quite a lot of fun I found - thanks @poiu (but you had a few bugs - I am sure I missed some) It's 4 hours of video, so.....

Perfect I am not a Windows user, but that sounds like it's a good thing You can also try the '-nolinear_scale' argument to disable bilinear scaling in fullscreen. Plenty of options there.

Firstly, have you tried removing the video .dat files and letting Hypseus recreated them ? I haven't tested dle11 specifically before but I just grabbed from: https://archive.org/download/firefox_201602/Daphne/roms/ And seems to run fine: 2022-01-08 22:17:47.575 INFO [1971532] [reset_logfile@337] Line Blending Function: C 2022-01-08 22:17:47.575 INFO [1971532] [reset_logfile@344] Audio Mixing Function: C 2022-01-08 22:17:47.579 WARN [1971532] [sound::init@208] WARNING : requested 2048 samples for sound buffer, but got 1024 samples 2022-01-08 22:17:47.595 INFO [1971532] [SDL_input_init@445] No joysticks detected 2022-01-08 22:17:47.595 INFO [1971532] [game::load_compressed_rom@946] Loading compressed ROM image dle11u1l.bin ... 8192 bytes read. 2022-01-08 22:17:47.595 INFO [1971532] [game::load_compressed_rom@946] Loading compressed ROM image dle11u2l.bin ... 8192 bytes read. 2022-01-08 22:17:47.595 INFO [1971532] [game::load_compressed_rom@946] Loading compressed ROM image dle11u3l.bin ... 8192 bytes read. 2022-01-08 22:17:47.595 INFO [1971532] [game::load_compressed_rom@946] Loading compressed ROM image dle11u4l.bin ... 8192 bytes read. 2022-01-08 22:17:48.901 INFO [1971532] [ldp_vldp::read_frame_conversions@1043] Framefile parse succeeded.

Then post the log.

Heya, So which ROM are you using ? lair or dle21 ? What arguments are you currently trying, and what are the logs saying when the crash occurs ? What is the checksum of the ROM in case it's corrupt? I usually run 'lair' with -fastboot -bank 1 00110111 -bank 0 10011001 I haven't seen any issues with these m2v's.
