TODO: find another way to install nvidia-cg-toolkit packages.
Add info on installing nvidia-cg-toolkit manually
===Installing the build time dependencies===
The following commands will install everything you need to build RetroArch in your MSYS2 environment.
*For 32 bit builds run:
pacman -S --noconfirm --needed git make mingw-w64-i686-toolchain mingw-w64-i686-pkgconf mingw-w64-i686-nvidia-cg-toolkit mingw-w64-i686-SDL2 mingw-w64-i686-libxml2 mingw-w64-i686-freetype mingw-w64-i686 python3 mingw-w64-i686-ffmpeg
*For 64 bit builds:
pacman -S --noconfirm --needed git make mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain mingw-w64-x86_64-pkgconf mingw-w64-x86_64-nvidiaSDL2 mingw-w64-x86_64-libxml2 mingw-w64-cgx86_64-toolkit freetype mingw-w64-x86_64-SDL2 python3 mingw-w64-x86_64-libxml2 ffmpeg For the nvidia-cg-toolkit packages, you will need to download the pkg manually from Sourceforge to your home directory for [http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/REPOS/MINGW_GCC_4_9/i686/mingw-w64-i686-nvidia-cg-toolkit-3.1-2-any.pkg.tar.xz/download 32-bit] or [http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/REPOS/MINGW_GCC_4_9/x86_64/mingw-w64-x86_64-freetype nvidia-cg-toolkit-3.1-2-any.pkg.tar.xz/download 64-bit], then use pacman to install them. *32-bit: pacman -U --noconfirm mingw-w64-x86_64i686-nvidia-cg-toolkit-3.1-2-any.pkg.tar.xz *64-bit: pacman -U --python3 noconfirm mingw-w64-x86_64-ffmpegnvidia-cg-toolkit-3.1-2-any.pkg.tar.xz
After installing the packages, close the MSYS2 shell and open either MinGW-w64 Win64 Shell for 64 bit builds or MinGW-w64 Win32 Shell if you want to build for 32 bit systems. Both should be available in your Start Menu.
