Yeah, I wish it were as easy to do as it is easy to say. I don't use mingw (Cygwin and mingw only glance at each other nicely.... other than that, they want to kill each other), and Qt5 for Windows can't compile the thing since the code it's based on wasn't Qt5 compatible. The patch is literally just a matter of changing like, two bytes, but I can't get the damn thing to compile for shit. All the links in the "how to compile with QT" readme are broken, then I stumble across this thread which killed any hope I had of making it work.

Worse, haven't heard from vlad2vlad (he's running this shit show, right? lol), so I'm still kinda stuck. If anyone else has access to a working toolchain that can actually compile this thing, there will be much <3 from the shit-lovers here.

FYI, I'm using the Qt version for the server daemon, full GUI and all, because it's a low-traffic, multi-purpose server that pretty much just runs any software I want to run 24/7. And I like being able to see transactions and status at a glance without having to reinvent the wheel with my own back-end UI. I'd much rather use that Qt version, but shitcoind would also do.
