Error code 1 when executing Atomisware games form command line.

There are games that refuse to load from command line. Note that they load fine if I try to load from Demul's built-in games list loader.

I have all the required ROMs and everything is configured correctly. Some games work fine, other give error code 1.
DOS prompt command line (or a in a .bat file) :
Code:
"D:\emulators\Naomi\demul0582\demul.exe" -run=awave -rom=kov7sprt

game doesn't run and Demul returns:
Code:
Error 1: Incorrect function.

If I try other games, no such error appears.
My computer specs are way more than enough to run this emulator at full speed: Core I7 2600 3.4GHz, 8GB RAM, GeForce GTX570HD 2.5GB of VRAM (latest video drivers), Windows 7 SP1 64-bits.

I didn't noticed this until now. It seems that all atomisware games are outputting this exec error (even on Demul 0.57). Other systems load fine.
I'm the coder of the Emu Loader frontend (MAME, Demul, Daphne... emulators).

What could be wrong ?

You say you are coder, but you don't know how to see the help/list command line switches of programs, that's quite strange.

OH WAIT!!! The -help is WRONG! It's not atomiswaRe... it's atomiswaVe (with a "V").
this is what the -help outputs... see the system... it says atomiswaRe!!!!
How can you blame me for this ??? If I use atomiswaVe, then games launch from command line.

Demul devs missed this... and the info has been wrong since v0.56 (or even older builds).
Code:
Demul (Sega * Emulator) v0.5.8.2
Build date: Oct 23 2013
usage: demul [options]
 -? -h -help		give this help
 -version		give about
 -listxml		list roms & bioses in ClrMame XML format
 -listroms		print games list
 -run=<name>		run specified system (dc, naomi, atomiswa[COLOR="#0000FF"]r[/COLOR]e, hikaru, alien, gaelco)
 -rom=<romname>		run specified system rom
 -customrom=<fullpath>	run specified system customrom
 -image=<fullpath>	run specified system image (CD/GD media systems only)
