An x86 emulator in python for running 3D Movie Maker decompression functions.

This is the replacement for DecompProxy, which is Windows-only. DecompVM runs anywhere Python does.

1. Get the 3DMOVIE.EXE file from a copy of Microsoft 3D Movie Maker, or 3DMTRIAL.EXE from the demo: ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/deskapps/kids/3dmm.exe (copy/paste, ftp links are broken on github)
2. Get objdump(/.exe) from GNU bintools.
3. Run extract.py to generate Decompress(1/2).s
4. Run python decompress.py input.bin output.bin

1. Get the objtool binary
2. Get GCC-core DLLs
3. Get libiconv DLLs
4. Get libintl DLLs
5. Use 7zip to uncompress all files, and then do extract-here. go into the bin subdirectory and copy objdump.exe & all the DLLs into the DecompVM directory.

• Document what tiny subset of x86 this VM supports.
• Optimize the VM. Large decompressions are slow (300k=5s)
• Test if the free demo has the decompression functions and make extract.py support them if so Done!
• Confirm that objdump can actually be used on windows (ie figure out the mingw dependencies mess). Done!
• Write an automated way to grab the mingw files and auto-extract them.
• Add an automated way to get the trial installer, extract it, and run extract.py on it.
• Move decompress.py to use argparse instead of hardcoded sys.argv[]
