It's a kind of crutch but it works. To load tapes from any Internet resources you should use any of CORS-proxies (e.g. https://non-cors.herokuapp.com). For example, To play Frightmare from SpectrumComputing link, you should combine JSSpeccy URL, proxy URL and tape file URL, it looks that way: https://mistificator.github.io/jsspeccy2-webos/dist/?load=https://non-cors.herokuapp.com/https://archive.org/download/World_of_Spectrum_June_2017_Mirror/World%20of%20Spectrum%20June%202017%20Mirror.zip/World%20of%20Spectrum%20June%202017%20Mirror/sinclair/games/f/Frightmare128(BUGFIX).tzx.zip Or you could press "Open file" button in top panel of JSSpeccy and copy-paste proxied URL of Xenophobe https://non-cors.herokuapp.com/https://archive.org/download/World_of_Spectrum_June_2017_Mirror/World%20of%20Spectrum%20June%202017%20Mirror.zip/World%20of%20Spectrum%20June%202017%20Mirror/sinclair/games/x/Xenophobe.tap.zip or whatever you want to play.

1. Install some make system (MSVS or GCC or whatever), cause we need to build via Makefile.

2. Install Perl.

3. Install npm.

4. Run compile_webos.cmd OR 4.1 At project folder call: npm install coffee-script --save-dev npm install google-closure-compiler --save-dev 4.2. Build Makefile: nmake all (or what maker you have)

5. Output in "dist" folder, open index.html to test emulator. Enjoy.

1. Install webOS SDK from LG webOS developer site.

2. Activate development mode on LG TV via instructions from LG webOS developer official site.

3. Install webOS JSSpeccy IPK package file on TV via webOS SDK IDE or ares-install script.

4. Enjoy!

1. Put all files and "games" and "images" subfolders from "dist" folder to host server.

2. Move your games you want to see in drop-down list to /games/ folder, modify tapes.js corresponding to games list.

3. Start web-server.

4. That's all.

original README

https://github.com/gasman/jsspeccy2

When I started this project in 2009, writing an emulator in JavaScript was a silly idea. Now, thanks to advances in JavaScript engines, and new APIs emerging from HTML5 and WebGL, it has become a significantly less silly idea, which means that the time is right for a more serious attempt at the job.

What's new?

Everything, basically... it's a ground-up rewrite. In particular:

• Z80 core uses typed arrays[0] where appropriate, for a healthy performance boost (and significantly less faffing around with '& 0xff' everywhere to get around the lack of strong typing in JavaScript)
• More JavaScript-ish architecture - the Z80 instruction set is built up through copious use of closures, rather than borrowing Fuse's Perl generator script wholesale. (It's still heavily based on Fuse's Z80 core though.)
• 128K support!
• 99% accurate display emulation, for multicolour effects and the like
• TZX file support (only via tape traps; custom loaders won't work)
• Integration with the World Of Spectrum API, for instant loading of thousands of software titles

Building

Perl, CoffeeScript[1] and Closure Compiler[2] are required. To build:

make

This will place all web-distributable files into the 'dist' folder.

Browser support

Tested successfully on Chrome 32, Firefox 26 and Safari 7.0.1. Support for typed arrays and the PixelData API are absolutely required, and it'll almost certainly stay that way.
