[Paraview] Building Paraview (QT) from source

Hey Guys,

     I'm trying to build Paraview from source on windows and ran into an
issue when trying to configure and qmake QT. I've been following the
directions at http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView:Build_And_Install and
downloaded "qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.2.zip" and unzipped the files.
I opened up a 'Developer Command Prompt for VS2013' and navigated to the
unzipped folder that holds the qt source and typed configure, o for open
source version, and yes to accept the license offers, but then I get an
error when it tries to create qmake.

Creating qmake...
execute: File or path is not found (mingw32-make)
execute: File or path is not found (mingw32-make)
Cleaning qmake failed, return code -1

I thought that opening up the developer command prompt for VS2013 set all
the path variables so that mingw32-make wouldn't be needed, so this may not
be the case. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Andrew Solis
