Automating Collecting Playermodel Filepath

[Chibby]

So before I waist an hour or two getting over 300+ Playermodel filepath's
I was wondering if anyone knew an easy way to get all Playermodel filepath's via console/chat command or a simple logging of playermodel path's upon joining.

I have seen similar setups with automatically blacklisting big props on DarkRP servers, but that is called when it's spawned by a player so that's easy.
But how would one get a playermodel's filepath, and adding it to a file/database if it's NOT already in the file/database.

Hopefully I have explained this in a way that's understandable.

Thanks,
Chibby

I don't really know what you're asking for. If you want it to list player models you already have set up, you can do something like this

local ValidModelSimpleNames = {
	["alyx"] = {"models/player/alyx.mdl"},
	["barney"] = {"models/player/barney.mdl"},
	["breen"] = {"models/player/breen.mdl"},
	["charple"] = {"models/player/charple.mdl"},
	["chell"] = {"models/player/p2_chell.mdl"},
	["corpse"] = {"models/player/corpse1.mdl"},
	["combine"] = {"models/player/combine_soldier.mdl"},
	["combineprison"] = {"models/player/combine_soldier_prisonguard.mdl"},
	["combineelite"] = {"models/player/combine_super_soldier.mdl"},
	["eli"] = {"models/player/eli.mdl"},
	["gman"] = {"models/player/gman_high.mdl"},
	["kleiner"] = {"models/player/kleiner.mdl"},
	["grigori"] = {"models/player/monk.mdl"},
	["mossman"] = {"models/player/mossman.mdl"},
	["mossmanarctic"] = {"models/player/mossman_arctic.mdl"},
	["police"] = {"models/player/police.mdl"},
	["girlpolice"] = {"models/player/police_fem.mdl"},
	["magnusson"] = {"models/player/magnusson.mdl"},
	["stripped"] = {"models/player/soldier_stripped.mdl"},
	["zombie"] = {"models/player/zombie_classic.mdl"},
	["fastzombie"] = {"models/player/zombie_fast.mdl"},
	["malerebel"] = {
	"models/player/Group03/Male_01.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Male_02.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Male_03.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Male_04.mdl",

	"models/player/Group03/Male_06.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Male_07.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Male_08.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Male_09.mdl"},
	["malecitizen"] = {
	"models/player/Group01/Male_01.mdl",
	"models/player/Group01/Male_02.mdl",
	"models/player/Group01/Male_03.mdl",

	"models/player/Group01/Male_08.mdl",
	"models/player/Group01/Male_09.mdl"},
	["girlrebel"] = {
	"models/player/Group03/Female_01.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Female_02.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Female_03.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Female_04.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Female_06.mdl",
	"models/player/Group03/Female_07.mdl"},
	["girlcitizen"] = {

	"models/player/Group01/Female_03.mdl",
	"models/player/Group01/Female_04.mdl",
	"models/player/Group01/Female_06.mdl",
	"models/player/Group01/Female_07.mdl"},
	["skeleton"] = {"models/player/skeleton.mdl"},
	["terrorist"] = {
	"models/player/leet.mdl",
	"models/player/guerilla.mdl",
	"models/player/arctic.mdl",
	"models/player/phoenix.mdl"},
	["counterterrorist"] = {
	"models/player/urban.mdl",
	"models/player/gasmask.mdl",
	"models/player/riot.mdl",
	"models/player/swat.mdl"}
}

local changedmodels = changedmodels or {}

local function changemodel(ply, text)
		
	local exptext = string.Explode(" ", text)
	
	if (string.lower(exptext[1]) == "!model") then
		local wanted = exptext[2]
		if (ValidModelSimpleNames[wanted]) then
			ply:SetModel(table.Random(ValidModelSimpleNames[wanted]))
			changedmodels[ply:SteamID()] = ply:GetModel()
			return
		else
			ply:ChatPrint("Not a valid model! Type !models for a list of possible models.")
			return
		end
	end
	
	if (string.lower(exptext[1]) == "!models") then
		local getkeys = table.GetKeys(ValidModelSimpleNames)
		ply:ChatPrint("Type !model and then one of the following: \n"..table.concat(getkeys, ", "))
		return
	end

	
	
end
hook.Add("PlayerSay", "changemodel", changemodel)

I need to get the filepath for all the playermodels I am subscribed too so I can add them to a similar setup you have at the top.

[Acecool]

file.Find works wonders when used recursively. Addons load in a sort of "virtual directory" setting. So by listing models/ directory, you'll be able to grab all models.

] listdir models/ mdl true
[url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26074909/work/output/listdir.txt[/url]

This is part of my fileio which will be released soon ( slightly modified for you )

//
// Generates an array where the key is the directory, and values are files within the key directory. - Josh 'Acecool' Moser
// 		This type of file-list is what the ReadFiles ( into memory ) fileio function requires.
//
function GenerateFileList( _folder, _filter, _files )
	// Init
	if ( !_files ) then _files = { }; end

	// Grab files and folders for the directory which we're in.
	local files, folders = file.Find( _folder .. "*", "GAME" );

	// Process folders... _files = ... isn't necessary because Pass-By-Reference which will modify the original list.
	for k, v in pairs( folders or { } ) do
		_files = GenerateFileList( _folder .. v .. "/", _filter, _files );
	end

	// Go through all files for current folder
	for k, v in pairs( files or { } ) do
		// Filter is for extensions we are looking for; can be a table or a single one. Doesn't support patterns.
		if ( _filter ) then
			local _extension = string.GetExtensionFromFilename( v );
			if ( istable( _filter ) ) then
				if ( !table.HasValue( _filter, _extension ) ) then continue; end
			else
				if ( _extension != _filter ) then continue; end
			end
		end

		// Only initialize the struct if files exist that we're targeting...
		if ( !_files[ _folder ] ) then _files[ _folder ] = { }; end

		// Insert into our table...
		table.insert( _files[ _folder ], v );
	end

	return _files;
end

Creates a simple structure where _files = { }, elements of the table KEY is the folder, V is another table which will contain just the file-names.

Usage is straight forward:

local _data = GenerateFileList( "models/", "mdl" );
PrintTable( _data )

You may end up with more than can be displayed. I'd recommend saving the output to a file. You can easily modify to look for player in the file-name, but some player models may not contain that so outputting all may be the easiest way...

Acecool that works, but would there be a way to only list playermodels.
Like searching for [I]player_manager.AddValidModel( "models/", "mdl" )[/I]
