  z80 heaven writes it doesnt work in rus and belarus due to violation of human rights and the international law :) so they mean capturing power in a country with foregn supported and sponsored coups, burning people alive in odessa, discriminating russian people and language - it's all within the international law?.. that's interesting, made a note... i joined it through a free web proxy in next two minutes anyway

  The rings around the thumbsticks are a good improovement they're on the Elite series 2, they're called friction rings. they make your thumbsticks glide a bit more smooth without tearing the joysticks but would be better with metal thumbsticks but still i'm pretty sure if ER did it with good quality will help the default plastic ones from microsoft, altought i didn't get much quality from this third party company with some faceplate for my elite series 2 a while ago. and result thier plastic was more brittle and cheap feeling so i can't tell from your faceplate but adding friction rings that's a +

  Ah ok interesting. Thanks for the comment. I was thinking maybe the rings wear out with use and being removable allows them to be replaced.

  @@Spriteworx well i can't talk for plastic to plastic but i would think it will wear out maybe but less obvious than the original faceplate + ms thumbsticks. even tough' for the elite series 2 also was on thier first elite series, the gliding around is way better than plastic on plastic without thoses friction rings (unmodded controller) .. curious if that make a big of a deal with this faceplate and plastic thunbsticks since i run on an elite series 1 / 2 since years can't go back ! AND if you don' use any kontrol freaks on any thumbsticks may u can look up for aluminum/metal thumbsticks and change thoses. back years ago on my first xbox one also on 360 i had aluminum thumbsticks was a game changer beside the baremetal feeling . some could be use with kontrol freaks and rubbers raisers! cheers :)

  retro assembler is written likely in C# or F#, that's why it needs the .NET framework to run.

  A great series of ZX Spectrum Z80 educational videos. It's criminal that this video only have 558 (at time of typing this) views and no comments. You are a good teacher and explain the each process really well. I haven't programmed Z80 Assembly since I was a kid, this course has brought back so many fond memories. I don't know if you realise but your playlist "Z80 Assembly Language/Machine Code" isn't in correct lesson order. FYI. Keep up the great tutorials.

  When the team built the boards the correct sockets for the RAM chips haven't been available. Because of this larger ones have been used. - Fun fact: Not sure, but I think that the Sockets have been at least as expensive as the RAM chips itself...

And BTW, the shadowing of the text on the main arena screen of the game for the letters were all by hand and are tiles I made and placed. Thought it made the name pop more so I did it. Wanted it to be like I was doing graphics from the 1980s when I was a teen. haha

  Hmmm... I do seem to have a problem with the assembler. When I type something in it, it displays random ASCII characters. The keyboard works perfectly in the emulator, but it's the assembler part that refuses to work. My keyboard is set to US, so what is the issue? I tried several versions of ZX Spin with no luck. @Spriteworx

  My spectrum used to have rubber keys. I used to enjoy typing out programming for simple animation or games. I was 8-11 years old , 1980 onwards I think or ‘81. I wish I’d carried on .

  I remember writing BASIC program back in 1994 or around that year. I needed a picture to be moved from memory into screen memory so I user a small machine code program consisting of one command ;-) I simply POKEd those bytes into free part of memory straight from BASIC and used RANDOMIZE USR 'some addredd I don't remember' to make that. The machine code program was LDIR, which moved some bytes of memory (6912, quantity according to one of CPU registers) from starting address indicated in another register to 16384, stated in third register. This was way more fast then PEEKing and POKEing 6912 byted in cycle of BASIC :-)

And also, are you going to do something more gaming relevant like bitmap layer scrolling and such as well? Anyhow, looking forward to everything you will release about the X16. Thanks again.

  Thanks for another great video. In all the decades I have programmed Speccy's in Basic I have always wondered what it would be like to directly program in Machine code. This is truly exciting, and I have already remembered that 18:30 mins into this video is the screenshot of the Basic program I will be entering into my Emulator to try it out. 10/10. Can't wait to watch part 2 of this video :)

  Thank you for another great, really interesting video on the ZX Spin Emulator. I also really like the Z80 Assembler & Debugger tools you get with this package. I've currently been using the Fuse Emulator for my ZX Spectrum which is also really good, but I've got to say it looks like the ZX Spin Emulator is even better! I can't wait to get to start programming again and I'm especially looking forward to getting my hands dirty with some machine code :)

  Brilliant! Heres what I posted at World of Spectrum about your video It was pure gold for me, I wish I had this explained to me 40 years ago because I never did understand how important it is to plan out your programming strategy before coding. I'm not a programmer like a lot of folk here, I kind of fell into it as a spinoff from my mandatory Basic course at university. What made me take up doing what little I did was the fascination of how UDGs can make animated graphics which I wanted for a VHS I was making as part of my teaching course. I have tried and tried to get to grips with machine code but it just never made sense to me nor do most other high level languages but Basic (and the Spectrums keyword system) was a godsend so I have stuck grimly to it despite the usual disparaging remarks which even the guy in the video makes. I love line numbers and would be hopelessly at sea without them to follow the execution steps but the problem of them is that they do tend to teach you to program in a linear fashion which makes calling up subroutines a bit of a bugger. So when I watched that video it was like Moses being given the 10 commandments on Mt Sinaii! Talk about a revelation.... Of course the rest of you are now falling about laughing but thats okay I'm used to that! Happy to amuse others even if it is at my own expense
