I want to try mining yacoin over night so I can post my results tomorrow but I still dont have a miner sadly
Here's a somewhat basic overview what I did to compile it:
1) Install visual studio 2012 express (free from microsoft)
2) Install the cuda 5.5 toolkit (free from nvidia)
3) Download libcurl source & read the README on how to build the library for windows
4) Download the pthread library for windows - I downloaded prebuilt lib
5) Open visual c command prompt & build libcurl library - I built static lib and included it in the exe
6) Clone the git inside visual studio
7) Edit the properties of the project to include the libcurl & pthread includes & libs
8) Build release
9) Profit from YAC!!~?
Actually there are a couple of scrypt-jane coins out there now... but they might have different start times? might need to make that an argument
