1. Checkout the repository. This can be done using [GitHub Windows](https://windows.github.com/) or [other tools](https://help.github.com/articles/which-remote-url-should-i-use).
2. Download [SDL2 development library for Visual C++]((http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL2-devel-2.0.3-VC.zip)) and copy it to a new directory called "sdl" in the repository. This directory should contain "include". The path should be something like ```\GitHub\OpenRCT2\sdl\include\```.
3. Open the solution in the projects directory (**openrct2.vcxproj**) with Visual C++.
4. In *rct2.c*, ```GAME_PATH``` **must** be edited to reflect your RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 installation. Each slash needs to be marked twice, like this: ```C:\\Program Files (x86)\\GOGcom\\RollerCoaster Tycoon 2\\RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 Triple Thrill Pack```. Existing registry keys and the original RCT2 executable are not required.
5. [Select the 'Release' configuration](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/wx0123s5.aspx) and click Build -> Rebuild Solution. The dropdown menu to enable the 'release' configuration is towards the top of the VS Express window, near the "TEST" menu.
6. Start debugging. Press the "Local Windows Debugger" button with a green "play" icon next to it. If warned about *openrct2.exe* not having debug information, just continue.

5. Start debugging. Press the "Local Windows Debugger" button with a green "play" icon next to it. If warned about *openrct2.exe* not having debug information, just continue.
6. The first time you run OpenRCT2, it creates a settings file in `My Documents/OpenRCT2`. If it can't find the original installation of RCT2, you will need to edit `config.ini` in that folder and change the value of `game_path` to where RCT2 is installed.
7. If the game crashes, you may need to press the red, square button along the top of VS Express (for "stop") to stop the program.
