## Dependencies
-* Qt 5.5.1+ Development tools (http://qt-project.org/downloads) ("Qt Online Installer for Windows")
-* OpenSSL (http://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html) ("Win32 OpenSSL \<version\> Light")
+* [Qt 5.5.1+ Development tools](http://qt-project.org/downloads) -- Qt Online Installer for Windows
+* [OpenSSL](http://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html) -- Newest Win32 OpenSSL Light
- 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 1.2.8+ (http://zlib.net/zlib128-dll.zip)
-* CMake (http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html) ("Windows (Win32 Installer)")
-* patch.exe from the [GNU project](http://webchat.esper.net/?nick=&channels=MultiMC).
