OK, somehow I got a bit confused between softlist path name, softlist xml filename and softlist internal name.
If I do a "mess64.exe g7400 -cart freedom" it will load if it's on a "g7400" softlist path (g7400\freedom.zip). Softlist name is "vg7400" and doesn't follow it contrary to what I said in the previous post.
If I do a "mess64.exe radio86 -cass basic80" it will load if it's on a "radio86_cass" softlist path (radio86_cass\basic80.zip). Softlist name is "radio86".
So far every softlist path matched xml filename AND softlist name. So I though it would make sense to follow the same standard for each one. In the end softlist name doesn't matter but softlist xml filename does. All this time I've been using batch profiles with the wrong option. "For rompath naming use" should have been "DatFile file" instead of "DatFile Name Tag".
Thank you.
