Windows files and documentation can be found here
Minimum software requirements: gcc, cmake, autotools, zlib, SDL2, libtool, libzip, vorbis and ogg.
Use homebrew to install the following packages:
brew install cmake
brew install autoconf
brew install automake
brew install pkg-config
brew install sdl2
brew install sdl2_ttf
brew install sdl2_image
brew install libtool
brew install libvorbis
brew install libogg
brew install libzip
Newer series Macs may need to use the brew libmpeg2 package:
brew install libmpeg2
Then clone the libmpeg2 branch:
git clone --single-branch --branch libmpeg2 https://github.com/DirtBagXon/hypseus-singe.git
For Raspberry Pi clone the RetroPie branch via:
git clone --single-branch --branch RetroPie https://github.com/DirtBagXon/hypseus-singe.git
Further RetroPie and Raspberry Pi information can be found here
Build:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../src
make
Ensure you have data in the following daphne HOME folders:
pics, fonts, ram, roms, sound, singe, (vldp and vldp_dl)
Run hypseus with daphne arguments on the command line: Also refer to additional arguments below
hypseus lair vldp -framefile vldp_dl/lair/lair.txt -scorebezel
hypseus singe vldp -framefile singe/timegal/timegal.txt -script singe/timegal/timegal.singe
In Windows you are able to create .bat files with arguments for specific games.
Example .bat files are provided within the Windows zip file.
Retro gaming systems will require adoption within the relevant emulation scripts.
The singe -retropath argument can ease integration into libretro style systems. See RetroPie as an example.
bash scripts are provided for systems that support this shell.
Build Hypseus home and install bash scripts:
mkdir -p ~/.daphne/roms ~/.daphne/ram ~/.daphne/vldp
mkdir -p ~/.daphne/vldp_dl ~/.daphne/singe
cp doc/hypinput.ini doc/flightkey.ini ~/.daphne
cp doc/hypinput_gamepad.ini ~/.daphne
cp -R pics sound fonts ~/.daphne
sudo cp build/hypseus /usr/local/bin/hypseus.bin
sudo cp scripts/run.sh /usr/local/bin/hypseus
sudo cp scripts/singe.sh /usr/local/bin/singe
hypseus
singe
See CmdLine
Configuration of keycodes and joysticks should be made within hypinput.ini
By default SDL2 Keycodes and the Joystick API configuration options will be used.
SDL GameController API configuration can now be enabled for supported controllers.
Enable SDL_GameController using -gamepad. Example config: hypinput.ini
Update the Controllers db by placing gamecontrollerdb.txt in the Hypseus home folder.
Use the hypjsch utilities to help with advanced scancode configurations.
Refer to keylist.txt for SDL2 keycode values.

Edit run.sh and singe.sh, to reflect the location of your ROM folders:
HYPSEUS_SHARE=~/.daphne
Note: The default Hypseus home directory, created when run without -homedir:
~/.hypseus
Bezel arguments are documented in: Bezels.md
Example arguments: -usbscoreboard COM 4 19200
Full details of the USB scoreboard here.
Enable the software external scoreboard panel in lair/ace: -scorepanel.
Use KEY_TILT to switch displays when using multiple screens.
A bezel based alternate is also available via: -scorebezel
The scorepanel, or bezel, can be positioned using -scorepanel_position x y - Window Managers may influence placement of the panel, scorebezel is not under their influence. The -scorebezel_alpha argument is a transparency option for the bezel based scoreboard.
For Singe, provide the following arguments to hypseus:
hypseus singe vldp -framefile ~/.daphne/singe/timegal/timegal.txt -script ~/.daphne/singe/timegal/timegal.singe -homedir ~/.daphne/ -datadir ~/.daphne/
Check for Singe anomalies and replacement files here.
Hypseus Singe has support for Singe 2 games, including full 32bit overlays.
For current details see: Hypseus Singe Data
Singe supports Sinden and DolphinBar based lightguns with the -manymouse argument.
This argument enables absolute (EV_ABS) mouse input event codes.
Note: -sinden automatically enables -manymouse
Singe now automatically interprets joystick axis change as mouse movement (Gun Games).
Adjust sensitivity via -js_range <1-20> in Singe arguments, or disable with -nojoymouse
Configure joystick controls in hypinput.ini or via GameController

Open development by the original author, Matt Ownby, ceased years ago.
Singe was created by Scott Duensing as a plugin to Daphne to allow the playing of American Laser Games.
This repository was created to expand the Hypseus project started
by Jeffrey Clark. Many overlays were unimplemented in the original
repository. Singe had also been removed.
The name of this application was changed to Hypseus (sibling to Daphne) so the original authors of Daphne would not be burdened with requests for support.
A massive thanks goes out to Matt Ownby, Scott Duensing, Jeffrey Clark, Manuel Alfayate, David Griffith and the many other developers who made their work available for me to build upon. Without them this project would not be possible.
