A tools for building Hydra is the same as for usual squeak vm.
A sources, however should be downloaded from different location.
Follow the above link for details.

check the
ftp.squeak.org/HydraVM/latest_builds/win32

it contains the latest builds, released by me.

I'd like to note, that Hydra is not actively developed anymore.
For instance, its not supports a closures, which integrated lately in
newer Squeak VMs.
A Cog VM, having plans to integrate HydraVM features in future.
But you are welcome, if you want to play with it. Expect rocks failing. :)
