## Dependencies
* [Qt 5.6+ Development tools](http://qt-project.org/downloads) -- Qt Online Installer for Windows
* [OpenSSL](http://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html) -- Newest Win32 OpenSSL Light
- http://download.qt.io/new_archive/qt/5.6/5.6.0/qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw492-5.6.0.exe
- Download the MinGW version (MSVC version does not work).
* [OpenSSL](https://indy.fulgan.com/SSL/Archive/) -- Win32 OpenSSL, version 1.0.2g (from 2016)
- https://indy.fulgan.com/SSL/Archive/openssl-1.0.2g-i386-win32.zip
- the usual OpenSSL for Windows (http://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html) only provides the newest version of OpenSSL, and we need the 1.0.2g version
- **Download the 32-bit version, not 64-bit.**
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redist is required for this, there's a link on the OpenSSL download page above next to the main download.
- We use a custom build of OpenSSL that doesn't have this dependency. For normal development, the custom build is not necessary though.
* [zlib 1.2+](http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/zlib.htm) - the Setup is fine
* [Java JDK 8](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html)
* [CMake](http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html) -- Windows (Win32 Installer)
Put it somewhere on the `PATH`, so that it is accessible from the console.
Ensure that OpenSSL, zlib, Java and CMake are on `PATH`.

- Installation can take a very long time, go grab a cup of tea or something and let it work.
### Installing OpenSSL
1. Run the OpenSSL installer,
2. It's best to choose the option to copy OpenSSL DLLs to the `/bin` directory
- If you do this you'll need to add that directory (the default being `C:\OpenSSL-Win32\bin`) to your PATH system variable (Google how to do this, or use this guide for Java: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/path.xml).
1. Download .zip file from the link above.
2. Unzip and add the directory to PATH, so CMake can find it.
### Installing CMake

- If the project builds successfully it will run and the MultiMC5 window will pop up,
- Test OpenSSL by making an instance and trying to log in. If Qt Creator couldn't find OpenSSL during the CMake stage, login will fail and you'll get an error.
The following .dlls are needed for the app to run (copy them to build directory if you want to be able to move the build to another pc):
```
platforms/qwindows.dll
libeay32.dll
libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll
libssp-0.dll
libstdc++-6.dll
libwinpthread-1.dll
Qt5Core.dll
Qt5Gui.dll
Qt5Network.dll
Qt5Svg.dll
Qt5Widgets.dll
Qt5Xml.dll
ssleay32.dll
zlib1.dll
```
**These build instructions worked for me (Drayshak) on a fresh Windows 8 x64 Professional install. If they don't work for you, let us know on IRC ([Esper/#MultiMC](http://webchat.esper.net/?nick=&channels=MultiMC))!**
### Compile from command line on Windows
1. If you installed Qt with the web installer, there should be a shortcut called `Qt 5.4 for Desktop (MinGW 4.9 32-bit)` in the Start menu on Windows 7 and 10. Best way to find it is to search for it. Do note you cannot just use cmd.exe, you have to use the shortcut, otherwise the proper MinGW software will not be on the PATH.
