1: Common Steps
---------------

You need to install the NASMW assembler on your machine.  You can get it from the downloads 
section of Mame website amongst other places (www.mame.net).  Make sure your Visual C 'exe' path
(Tools -> Options -> Projects -> Directories) includes the directory where you install NASM.

2: Compiling VCMame32 0.85 under Visual C 7.1 (.NET 2003)
---------------------------------------------------------

Follow these steps, in this order!

1) Unzip mame source to a location on your hard drive, eg, d:\mame\mame85
2) Unzip vcmame85 source to the same base location, eg, d:\mame\mame85
3) Unzip mame32_85 source to the same base location, eg, d:\mame\mame85
4) Make sure you have a copy of the DX9 SDK from Microsoft installed.

You should now have the following directory layout:

src/		(Standard Mame source)
src/vc		(VC Mame header & patches)
src/ui		(Mame 32 source)
docs/		(Standard Mame docs)

Plus these files at the root:

vcmame32.sln
vcmame32.vcproj
a68000.vcproj
c68000.vcproj
chdman.vcproj
romcmp.vcproj
zlib.vcproj
expat.vcproj


Now, just load up vcmame32.sln and build the project!
