I am trying to Build a menu that can be read from a file. I want to have 3 to 5 sections and then inside the section have a list of items to change model too. I have tried many ways to BuildMainMenu and have had no luck in displaying the main menu in game. I also don't understand how the keyvalues work, like which to use to get the section name and then in that section to display the item.

Here is the .txt file i have set up to retrieve the info from, is this wrong?

"Props"
{
    "Office Items"
        {
            
            "Hand Truck"
            {
                "models/props/cs_assault/handtruck.mdl"
            }
        }
    "Inside Items"
        {
            "ventilation duct"
            {    
                "models/props/cs_assault/ventilationduct01.mdl"    
            }
            "flood light"
            {
                "props/cs_assault/floodlight02.mdl"
            }
        }
    "Outside Items"
        {
            "no parking"
            {    
                "models/props/cs_assault/noparking.mdl"    
            }
            "old television"
            {
                "models/props/cs_militia/television_console01.mdl"
            }
        }
}

I would post my BuildMainMenu code but i know it is wrong and is a mess. can anyone help me learn this.

Yes, it's wrong. A KV file would look like this.

PHP Code:

"Props"
{
    "Outside Items"
    {
        "no parking"
        {    
            "model"    "models/props/cs_assault/noparking.mdl"    
        }
        "old television"
        {
            "model"    "models/props/cs_militia/television_console01.mdl"
        }
    }
} 


Then you could use KvGetSectionName properly. If you are still having trouble, post your code and/or a more specific problem.

ok thanks i have changed the props file. here is my code. I know it is wrong cause it doesn't work. Can anyone help me get this menu to load. It compiles but doesn't show menu in game.

PHP Code:

#include <sourcemod>

#define PLUGIN_VERSION "1.0"

new Handle:g_PropsMenu;
new Handle:kv;

public Plugin:myinfo = 
{
    name = "Props Menu",
    author = "Mr.Pig",
    description = "Props Menu",
    version = PLUGIN_VERSION,
    url = "http://www.sourcemod.net",
}

public OnPluginStart()
{
    RegConsoleCmd("sm_props", Command_PropsMenu);
}
 
public OnMapStart()
{
    g_PropsMenu = BuildMainMenu();
}
 
public OnMapEnd()
{
    if (g_PropsMenu != INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        CloseHandle(g_PropsMenu);
        g_PropsMenu = INVALID_HANDLE;
    }
}
 
Handle:BuildMainMenu()
{    
    
    kv = CreateKeyValues("Props");
    new String:file[256], String:title[64], String:finalOutput[100];
    BuildPath(Path_SM, file, 255, "configs/props.ini");
    FileToKeyValues(kv, file);
    
    if (!KvGotoFirstSubKey(kv))
    {
        SetFailState("Can't parse props file");
        return INVALID_HANDLE;
    }
    
    decl String:name[30];
    decl String:model[100];
    do
    {
        KvGetSectionName(kv, model, sizeof(model));
        FormatEx(finalOutput, sizeof(finalOutput), model);
        PrecacheModel(finalOutput, true);
        //height
        decl String:sHeightFix[32];
        KvGetString(kv, "heightfix", sHeightFix, sizeof(sHeightFix), "noo");
        if(!StrEqual(sHeightFix, "noo"))
        {
            Format(finalOutput, sizeof(finalOutput), "%s||%s", finalOutput, sHeightFix);
        }
    
    } 
    while (KvGotoNextKey(kv));
    KvRewind(kv);
    SetMenuTitle(g_PropsMenu, "Choose a Prop");
    return g_PropsMenu;
}
  
public Action:Command_PropsMenu(client, args)
{
    if (g_PropsMenu == INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        PrintToConsole(client, "The props file file was not found! command_PropsMenu");
        return Plugin_Handled;
    }    
 
    DisplayMenu(g_PropsMenu, client, MENU_TIME_FOREVER);
 
    return Plugin_Handled;
}
