Main differences from the original JSpeccy https://github.com/jsanchezv/JSpeccy project by jsanchezv are:
- replaced JAXB with standard properties loading routines
- replaced ANT with Maven, as such the project structure is changed
- removed any mentioning of nbproject
- Emulates ZX Spectrum models 16k, 48k, 128k, +2 and +2a
- Uses the same Z80 core as Z80Core project.
- Contended memory emulation.
- Border effects (Aquaplane, The Sentinel)
- Selectable border size (no border, standard, complete, huge)
- High resolution color effects (Uridium, Black Lamp)
- Emulation for screen scanlines, PAL effect or RGB monitor

You need to have installed Java 8. Run with:
java -jar JSpeccy.jar
A settings file named .jspeccyremastered will be created on the user directory.
On Unix/Linux platforms using X11, Java 8 have a bug redrawing the screen. Java 8 use the XRender extension by default and this causes some problems. To resolve it, you can test two possible solutions. First, you can add the option:
java -Dsun.java2d.opengl=True -jar JSpeccy.jar
that uses the OpenGL backend. This solution can be problematic when don't exist a good OpenGL driver or X11 is using Mesa. With these case you can use:
java -Dsun.java2d.xrender=false -jar JSpeccy.jar
If you are using Java 9 you need to add another startup option:
java --add-modules jdk.xml.bind -jar JSpeccy.jar
in Java 9 the Swing redrawing bug exist too, and you can need any of the previous solutions (sigh!).
