Repport Bug Core 10000 ICEDRAKE

bug report for core 10000 update on icedrake.
  On the positive side, better management in CRT mode of the display on the original Amiga output of interlaced PAL mode, on the ICE_9634 version the display shook and the image.
  By updating the core to version 10000 the problem disappeared.
  However I noticed that this old problem presents itself with this new core on 90% of games in interlaced mode running with the "Scorpion Engine" with the old core (9634) this problem only concerned 20/30% games developed on this engine, with core 10000 this problem concerns almost all games running on this engine.
  -Also note that the game "Parasol Star" freezes the entire Amiga after the introduction when starting the game, the game worked perfectly on the 9634 core.
  - The AGA version of turrican 2 also presents display problems in CRT mode (shaky and jumping image), a problem which did not exist on the 9634 core.
  - Problem also present on CastleVania AGA running under Scorpion Engine.
  - Rick Dangerous (new version running Scorpion Engine) also concerned.
  The behavior is exactly the same as for interlaced games on the old 9634 core which was solved on the 1000 core.

Hi,
I just tried Parasol Stars.
it crashed with Tu=2 ; Changed to Tu=1 and it works perfectly here.

Its always adviceable to run old games in their "normal" Speed setting.

So I would propose to run all old games in turtle mode.

@Gunnar,

Is there a way to change speed settings without mention it all the time in whdload-startup ? (I don't have Vampire pad)

Thanks
