+0. Clone and install https://github.com/mstorsjo/msvc-wine (you can skip CMake part)
+1. Set environment variable WINE_MSVC_PATH to the path to installed MSVC toolchain
+2. Pre-load wine: `wineserver -k; wineserver -p; wine64 wineboot`

+4. Follow other typical steps to build from console, except keep in mind you're in decent Operating System now.
