Alternate Launcher mode for Pup-pack tables

[javiersertaun]

Hello, following this guide i have achieved to launch the table with pup-pack and without pupck from pinup popper.

 

https://www.nailbuster.com/wikipinup/doku.php?id=pinup_optional

But i have a problem, i don`t understand the ALTROM mode launch.

 

 

 

How can i get to launch the normal rom when the pup-pack it`s launched?

And a different rom when the pup-pack it`s not launched.??

 

Now it`s Always launching the same rom. I need to put different roms when the pup-pack it`s on or off.

 

For example simpsons pinball..

I need to launch simpprty rom when the pup pack it`s launched ( this rom it`s in altrom folder in vpinmame)

And when the pup-pack it`s not launched i need to launch altsimpprity for example (this rom in roms folder).

 

In other words...i need to keep displays on when pup-pack it`s not present.

And keep displays off in pinup popper when pup pack its present.

 

So i have this Launch script:

 

Quote

@echo off

START "" "[STARTDIR]Launch\VPXSTARTER.exe" 30 10 60 "Visual Pinball Player" 2
cd /d "[DIREMU]"

rem Change the following to EnableTrueFullScreen to default FullScreen Exclusive!     DisableTrueFullScreen

SET FSMODE=ExtMinimized

SET VPXEXE=VPinballX_GL64.exe

if "[RECMODE]"=="1" (SET FSMODE=ExtMinimized )
if /I "[CUSTOM1]"=="NOFSX" (SET FSMODE=ExtMinimized)
if NOT "[ALTEXE]"=="" (SET VPXEXE=[ALTEXE] )

SET ALTPARAM=
if /I "[ALTMODE]"=="NOPUP" (SET ALTPARAM=-c1 NOPUP )
if /I "[CUSTOM2]"=="ALTROM" (REG ADD "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Freeware\Visual PinMame\globals" /v "rompath" /t REG_SZ /d "%C:\vPinball\VisualPinball\VPinMAME\altrom%" /f)

START /min "" %VPXEXE% "[DIREMU]" -%FSMODE% -ExtMinimized -play "[GAMEFULLNAME]" %ALTPARAM%

if %FSMODE%==ExtMinimized (START "" "[STARTDIR]Launch\PopperKeepFocus.exe" "Visual Pinball Player" 10)
 

Any way to keep displays on in a certain table  when pup-pack it`s not active and keep displays off when the pup pack it`s active???.

 

Now i can set keep displays on (for example for 0, 1 and 5) in a certain table..but the displays will be on behind the pup-pack.

If i set keep displays off then the pup-pack it`s perfect but when i play without pup-pack i can`t see or set any simpsons screen (i don`t want windows screen for my dmd)

Any help would be so appreciated
