I think, we can do this:
1. Build from source: download source code, cmake, open simspark project, build project ALL_BUILD and then build project INSTALL - this copy all files into C:\Program Files\simspark. Then open rcssserver3d project and build project ALL_BUILD and then build project INSTALL - C:\Program Files\rcssserver3d. If it change install directory for simspark (e.g. C:\whatever), project rcssserver3d will have a problem with finding simspark directory because trunk\rcssserver3d\cmake\FindSpark.cmake find only in "C:/Program Files/simspark" and "C:/Library/simspark" (line 30: SET(SPARK_DIR $ENV{SPARK_DIR} "C:/Program Files/simspark" "C:/Library/simspark")). Can you set SPARK_DIR from console via cmake? If yes, problem solved :). But enviroment variable must be manually set up.

2. We can create installer by Null Soft. One for simspark and one rcssserver3d. And then upload to the [1] as 2 separate packages. In past I created some nsi files. But it take some time to create them, because I have a lot of work to do. Null Soft Installer can set up also set up registers, enviroment variables, copy files and many more. 

What do you think?
