Getting chat logs

[Duke777]

Is there a way of getting chat logs out of silent mod?

[gaoesa]

You can parse those from server log.

[Duke777]

I have the server.log open and don't see any conversations.   Could you be more specific, I am new to silent mod.

[gaoesa]

Lines that start with "say:", "sayteam:", "saybuddy:", "privmsg:", "tprivmsg:", "mprivmsg:" and "adminchat:" are player chats. Saybuddy is fireteam chats, privmsg is normal private message, tprivmsg is private message to team and mprimsg is private message sent with the private message dialog and it can have multiple recipients.

 

EDIT:

I forgot to mention, to see private messages in the log, you need to have g_tyranny enabled.

Okay thanks, I used Notpad++ and typed  say (under the find icon which looks like binoculars)  until I found the chats amongst the omni-bot chatter.  I want to thank everyone for helping me learn the ins and outs of silent mod.

Or if you want to make it 3000000000000000x easier just download etsnitch and it auto parses your logs. :*

You can also use chat log LUA. I will submit it in download section sometime tonight. It should be also available on SD forums in one topic.

That's pretty much what i did with lua my self for pm logging. I log my pms via date/ip/name/name/message and i use "|" as a seperater and then just remove some stuff from the string and print it out via php.

 

Heres an example of how i have it setup.

(very basic setup atm just started working on it a few nights ago will add visuals and tables to make it look cleaner)

That will log all the chats in a separate file. Feel free to modify it as per your needs.

You can also submit your own version in download section so if any admin who needs it can download it and use it  

 

Thank you!

Chat logger v.1 by Purple (DRi*VJ*)

	Info:
		All logs are logged in a seperate file including PM, regular chat and team chat. 
		They will be in your silent directory. If you would like to organize them put them into a folder called anything
		and change 
		
		pm_logs 	= "pm_logs.txt"
		say_logs 	= "say_logs.txt"
		say_team_logs = "say_team_logs.txt"
		
		To your directory destination 
		e.g. pm_logs = "logs/pm_logs.txt"
		
		
		Note: The file names must be the same in order for this to work.

<?php

	$file_handle = fopen("pm_logs.txt","rb");
	
	while(!feof($file_handle)){
		$get_userinfo = fgets($file_handle);
		$userinfo = explode('|', $get_userinfo);
		
		$find[] = ']';
		$find[] = '[';
		
		$replace[] = '';
		$replace[] = '';
		
		$userinfo = str_replace($find, $replace, $userinfo);
		print $userinfo[0] . $userinfo[1] . $userinfo[2] . $userinfo[3] . $userinfo[4]. "<BR>";
	}
	fclose($file_handle);
?>

heres also the php script for the simple parsing which i showed in my screen shot earlier.

Ok this script works without any probs! Thanks purple!
