foo_deaf looping + fadeout problem

Having a small problem with the DEAF Module Decoder https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_deaf (I'm not sure if this counts as 3rd party since it's uploaded by Peter). I'm trying to convert Deus Ex's .UMX files (apparently they're basically .MOD files?) but I can't seem to get the conversion to do looping and fadeout as there appear to be no options for them in foo_deaf. There is an option for infinite looping under "Decoding", but then the file conversation never succeeds. There are loop and fadeout options for foo_dumb, in the old foobar, but these also fail to convert with loop and fadeout. They also have a silent section at the start of some tracks, which also converts. I'm not sure why, as foo_deaf does not have this.

Another option is the OpenMPT Module Decoder https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_openmpt54 (also by Peter) but this yields a sound that is very different from playback both in game and via foo_deaf/foo_dumb. It does convert with loops and fadeouts, but bizarrely, opening the resulting flac file in audacity showed the file as empty, despite it playing properly in foobar. I'm really not sure what to make of it...

Any ideas? I'd rather not resort to converting and manually adding loops via audacity.
