This is another scriptfodder "re-make", and this time it's the Screencap by _Pavlo. It's pretty straight out how it works, easy config, easy to use, works pretty well (I hope).
I have only tested this on myself, so if there are any bugs, please make sure to let me know, so I can fix 'em!

[b]How to use?[/b]
* !cap <player> <quality> (quality is not required. you can also do / instead of !)
[i]If you try to capture the screen of a player with high ping, or you have a high ping, it could take some time to capture the screen as
it has to network alot of shit. (It takes some time in general, I would say below 10 seconds on a normal server)
oh and also, i forgot to mention that the image may be a little out of size, so I made the panel rezisable, just rezise if like a normal windows 8 window, pretty basic.
just make it fit.[/i]
After doing !cap Author

Overview of the config.
[lua]
CAP = {}
CAP.allowance = {
["superadmin"] = true,
}
-- Groups whom are allowed to do this.
CAP.message = "An admin has captured you're screen! Hang on, baby!"
-- The message someone recieves when being taken a picture of. Put "" to disable the message.
CAP.command = "!cap"
-- The command an admin would type to capture a player!
CAP.defaultquality = 70
-- If you do !cap <player> without the third argument which is the quality, the size specified here will be default.!
[/lua]
This is cool and all, but what if someone is entering credit card information/some kind of personal info? Isn't that a breach of security?
You probably want to add an automatic message saying something like "By playing on this server you understand that a screenshot of your screen can be sent to the server at any given time." to make it sort of legal.

Where I live, as long as you make that message visible to the user, it does make it legal.
well, i could add some automated text thing, or you could just have it in your motd or something..
This sounds like something that could easily be abused by administrators. I, for one, wouldn't feel comfortable playing on a server where an admin could be watching my private steam conversations and the like.
It's a personal choice though. That's just my opinion.
for you people whom are afraid of admins looking at your porn, this is the right thing for you: [url]https://github.com/wiox/gmod-no-screencap[/url]
What happens if you play in windowed mode and then browse the web using google chrome ontop of gmod?
What i'm trying to say is, can the screencap functions break out of gmod?

Nope.
We used to do this in Gmod 12 way back when, before it was simpler/popular.
Had such fun forum tickets for unbans when folks where caught hacking. We never let anyone know we where screen capping, just used to say we had proof that cannot be denied etc. Such rage, claims of innocence etc.
[QUOTE=Ylsid;46091078]in steam overlay?[/QUOTE]
I've watched and won bids on ebay while playing TF2 in the past, granted you can't see any actual card details but you will have the last four digits of my bank account number and the email my Paypal account is tied to. Unusual yes, but still a valid concern.
If I knew you'd took a screenshot without my consent, I'd do my best to have you shut down. Taking player perspectives for the purposes of weeding out cheaters is one thing, but the overlay does not constitute part of the game and therefore is no business of yours.
I've been trying to find a way to check if the steam overlay is open, without any luck. If you know a way, bring it on!
NSA of gmod.
this addon only takes a capture of your own screen, not others

Calling the capture function in PostRender may work.
Wait wait wait so you're telling me, I can watch other peoples computers from behind my computer screen and not be illegal?
When I'm finished fixing up this silly mistake, and adding new awesome features, I guess you kinda can. Still a little experimental on that steam overlay, hopefully I'll be able to make that not draw when taking a screenshot. (You know, because abusive admins 'n illegal shit like that)

Reminds me of the old ULX cctv addon.

Screenshots are legal as far as I know. I screen shot people I believe are hacking all the time. Just a sidenote, there is a screengrabber built for ULX already uploaded to workshop but I haven't tested it yet.
I don't know anything about law, like at all. But if websites and whatnot have to (??) tell you what you do with the IP in their privacy policy, doesn't that mean; if logging screenshots had to be disclosed by law, wouldn't logging IP's have to be disclosed as well?
i agree with oubliette. i'll be experimenting on the steam overlay part, but for now, i fixed the addon and added download link, enjoy.
By law you must disclose that people have access to this, if the person has any personal data disclosed you must follow the data protection act and (sign up for it)
If you take the pics without them knowing and an admin just has them, it's mishandling of data especially if there's no log to track if someone took a pic and what was in the picture.
There used to be this really cool client script back when practically everything allowed client scripts, that showed you any player's screen (more or less) by creating a camera view based on player eye positions/angles. It was extremely handy for both administrating and cheating purposes.

That was a while ago but I remember that ;)

That's not the same thing, though. This captures their screen like a screenshot, where you would be able to see if they had any kind of hacks. For example, wallhack, anything they see on they're HUD you get to see.

And that's exactly what they use it for, even if allowcslua is 1.
Got me banned several times.

Not everyone knows that your gamemode forces sv_allowcslua to 1 by default.
