Simple MAME/HBMAME compiling scripts
How it works
1. 01-update-tools.cmd script updates MAME compiling tools (last operation is performed twice, because sometimes not all components are updated on the first run).
2. 02-update-tools-without-noconfirm.cmd (you should run this script to remove some conflicting packages; press Y to confirm operations).
3. 03-patch-diff.cmd script applies a diff to MAME or HBMAME sources (patch.exe is included).
4. 04-patch-binary-diff.cmd script applies a diff to MAME or HBMAME sources with --binary parameter (patch.exe is included).
5. 05-compile-mame-x64.cmd script compiles MAME (x64) and tools executables (replace 5 in -j parameter with number of your CPU cores + 1).
6. 06-compile-mame-x86.cmd script compiles MAME (x86) and tools executables (replace 5 in -j parameter with number of your CPU cores + 1).
7. 07-erase-mame.cmd script removes everything except MAME and chdman executables.
8. 08-compile-hbmame-x64.cmd script compiles HBMAME (x64) executable (replace 5 in -j parameter with number of your CPU cores + 1).
9. 09-compile-hbmame-x86.cmd script compiles HBMAME (x86) executable (replace 5 in -j parameter with number of your CPU cores + 1).
10. 10-erase-hbmame.cmd script removes everything except HBMAME executable.

Instructions
1. Extract MAME or HBMAME sources to buildtools/src or msys2/src folder.
2. Extract the contents of this archive to your buildtools or msys2 folder.
3. Go to buildtools/src or msys2/src folder, and run needed scripts.
