get fileTextureName for current frame?

[Anonymous]

So currently i have a script thats using this code to get the texture file name from texture node:

cmds.getAttr('node_name.fileTextureName')

But i need to get it for the current frame of animated texture names too now and i was wondering if there was a clever way to do that rather than some horrible string arithmetic.

Thanks

So I made a function to read the fileTextureName attrib and return the name of the texture with the correct frame number. It could be more clever but hey ho...

def getFileTextureName(file_node):
    
    maya_file_texture_name = cmds.getAttr(file_node + '.fileTextureName')
    
    if cmds.getAttr(file_node + '.useFrameExtension'):
        if 
        file_texture_name = maya_file_texture_name.split('.')        
        frame_ofset = cmds.getAttr(file_node + '.frameOffset')
        current_frame = cmds.currentTime(q=True)
        frame_padding = len(file_texture_name)
        frame_number = str(int(current_frame + frame_ofset)).zfill(5)
        
        maya_file_texture_name = (file_texture_name + '.' + frame_number + '.' + file_texture_name)
    
    return maya_file_texture_name 

Let me know if anyone has any improvements
