Singe 2 is the second generation of the Singe extension for Daphne. It brings several decisive improvements over Singe v1:
.m2v, and 1080p support was experimental);Since Recalbox 9.2, most Singe 2 games — those whose folder contains the Cfg, Fonts, Overlay, Script, Sounds and Video subfolders — rely on a shared framework, to be installed once in /recalbox/share/roms/daphne/Framework:
┣ 📁 recalbox
┃ ┣ 📁 share
┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 roms
┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 daphne
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 Framework
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 Fonts
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 m39.ttf
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 framework.singe
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 globals.singe
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 hscore.singe
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 main.singe
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 service.singe
┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 toolbox.singe
Get the framework from github.com/DirtBagXon/hypseus_singe_data. Without it, none of these games will start.
Each game lives in a <game>.daphne folder placed directly in /recalbox/share/roms/daphne:
┣ 📁 daphne
┃ ┣ 📁 elmstreet.daphne
┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 elmstreet.singe
┃ ┃ ┣ 🗒 elmstreet.txt
┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 Cfg
┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 Fonts
┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 Overlay
┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 Script
┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 Sounds
┃ ┃ ┣ 📁 Video
<game>.singe — the game's main script;<game>.txt — the framefile;Video — the video and audio files, the only part you have to supply yourself;Cfg, Fonts, Overlay, Script, Sounds — the game's configuration, fonts, artwork, scripts and sounds.The hypseus_singe_data repository provides all of these folders except video and audio for every game: by far the most reliable way to proceed — copy the game folder from the repository, then add your own Video folder.
A few older games do not use the shared framework and keep the Singe v1 structure (flat files plus a
cdromfolder). Follow the Playing Singe games page for those.

Several of these games —
crimepatrol-hd,drugwars-hd,johnnyrock-hd,johnnyrocknoir,lbh-hd,maddog-hd,maddog2-hd,spacepirates-hd— automatically detect connected DolphinBars and switch to multi-gun mode. Without a DolphinBar, the mouse is grabbed by the game.
