Anybody here uses mingw for windows? How is it, managed to compile OpenMW with it?
It looks like official mingw site http://www.mingw.org/ wasn't updated for 4 years already, what happened?
Not sure if I should install this https://mingw-w64.org/doku.php or this http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/

I've been using http://www.msys2.org/ for a couple of years now, mostly because they have a lot pre-built packages and a package manager (pacman).
Their recent bullet lib build is not optimized due to a gcc bug. You'd have to compile bullet yourself, can avoid the bug by excluding the examples.

How to compile hello world with it now? I'm typing gcc and mingw in, it says nothing found.

Are you using a cmd shell or the msys2 (bash) shell? The bash shell should have the paths all set for you.

You have to install gcc first
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
or better
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc

pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain

thank you, installing now
Re: Mingw (looking for a C++ compiler)
To compile a 32-bit program, I need to separately install a 32-bit mingw? What's the command for that?
