Dev Just a question

Quick question, what function do i need to use to get localuser's steam profile picture, such as the one in the tab menu, left of your name.

 

You can type

Code:

status

In console to find SteamIDs of players in-game.

From there you can use http://steamidfinder.com/ to find their profile.

 

Sorry it was unclear, i wanted the game to automatically displayed the users profile picture in their HUD. I don't want to find a profile pic of a specific person.

 

You'll need to be a tad more specific. What environment are you trying to accomplish this in? This section is mainly used for level design, but I'll assume you're talking about Garry's Mod Lua since it otherwise isn't possible. (Alternatives of course being VScript, and PHP but those are less common.)

Code:

local frame = vgui.Create("DFrame")

local av = vgui.Create("AvatarImage", frame)
av:SetPos(50,50)
av:SetSize(32, 32)
av:SetPlayer( LocalPlayer(), 32 )

frame:SetSize( ScrW()*0.25, ScrH()*0.25 )
frame:Center()
frame:SetVisible( true )
frame:MakePopup()
