DMD not working on Future pinball games config issue>?

[eracet]

Edited: I didnt have dmdext on custom #2 enabled. Once I did that it worked fine

 

Currently I have an issue with no dmd displaying on future pinball games.

I have the config set right I think,  and can launch bat files in FP root fine.

But I had to rebuild a lot of the settings and think I may be missing something. The Visual pinball works fine, just future pinball.

Here is my config for FP on Pinup.

 

rem Enable FP Backglass and Arcade Mode

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "ArcadeMode" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "SecondMonitorEnable" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

Disable FP Backglass and Arcade Mode if "Custom Launch Param" = PinEvent

if "[custom1]"=="PinEvent" (REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "ArcadeMode" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f)
if "[custom1]"=="PinEvent" (REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "SecondMonitorEnable" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f)

Run DMDExt from the FP folder only if "Custom Var #2" DOES NOT = NO_DMDExt

if "[custom2]"=="FP_DMDExt" (CD /d "[DIREMU]")
if "[custom2]"=="FP_DMDExt" (start /min "" "dmdext.exe" mirror --source=futurepinball -q --virtual-stay-on-top --fps 60 -g "[GAMENAME]" --use-ini="DmdDevice.ini")
if "[custom2]"=="FP_DMDExt" (timeout /t 1)

rem Launch Future Pinball

START "" "[STARTDIR]Launch\VPXSTARTER.exe" 10 5 60 "BSP Software*"
START "" "[DIREMU]\BAM\FPLoader.exe" /open "[GAMEFULLNAME]" /play /exit /arcaderender /STAYINRAM
