Grab MXE

git clone https://github.com/mxe/mxe.git

Build MXE from source (packages from site are too old)

• make MXE_TARGETS=x86_64-w64-mingw32.static qtbase libsamplerate sdl2 qtdeclarative qtgraphicaleffects qtimageformats qtmultimedia qtquickcontrols qtquickcontrols2 qtsvg qttools

Build Phoenix

• Run qmake, build - /usr/lib/mxe/usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32.static-qmake-qt5 ../Phoenix - make - make {portable|install}
• Copy contents of MXE/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32.static/qt5/qml/ into folder called Qt next to exe - Delete *.a, they're not needed
• Place qt.conf next to exe - Contents:
  • (grab from any release of Phoenix)
• Choose (for Libretro): - Static cores
  • Not fully supported
  • See article (TODO) - Shared cores (default)
