Have you tried compiling it manually using the scml.exe found in the mod_tools folder?

You simply open a cmd/terminal/powershell in that folder and input:

.\scml.exe "scml-path" "output-path"

so an example would be:

.\scml.exe "E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Don't Starve Mod Tools\mod_tools\input\character_build.scml" "E:\Steam\steamapps\common\dont_starve\mods\my-mod\anim\output"

it says  that '.\scml.exe' is nota recognised prograam file or command(edit:i got a similar error on powershell too)

Make sure that you are standing at the correct location where scml.exe is located.

Write 'ls' to check what files are available at the current location and use 'cd "path"' to navigate to the correct folder.

Find where your mod_tools is located and copy the path.

For me it is "E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Don't Starve Mod Tools\mod_tools" but it is probably somewhere else for you.

Open a terminal/powershell/cmd and type:

cd [path]

So for me that would be:

cd "E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Don't Starve Mod Tools\mod_tools"

Now that you know you are standing in the correct directory you can follow my previous instructions:
