If the script wont launch and your getting "WindowsError: [Error 126]"
Error cause:
sfm cant find the vlc.py and .dll files from the zip file.

How to fix
  1. first make sure you have 'vlc.py' and the .dll files in this dir: 'SourceFilmmaker\game\workshop\scripts\sfm\vlc'
  2. if yes then you have two choices
    1. add the full dir path of 'SourceFilmmaker\game\workshop\scripts\sfm\vlc' to windows Environment Path Variable
    2. install VLC 32 bit " https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html" then add the vlc install dir to windows Environment Path Variable I.E "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC"
  3. restart steam and try if it works

How to Add VLC to the windows Environment Path Variable:

Are you getting Error 126 or a different error message?
