Best setup for compiling the SDK

[General Tso]

I'm somewhat familiar with C++, but know nothing about compiling it on a PC. I would like to take a shot at doing some editing to the SDK, but I'm not sure how to go about doing it. I found this thread but it's several years old:

I have the source files and the make file for my current dll. Are the directions in the above thread still the best way to compile a new DLL file?

Civ4 Wiki, Guide to Installing the SDK

Use Refar's guide, link is in there. The other two links are outdated/useless. Everything you need should be findable from links on that webpage, or following the instructions in Refar's guide (remember to use glider's makefile --link in the above webpage-- and not the makefile that comes with Refar's guide, as glider's makefile is for 3.19)
