Automatic/bulk import of real player Facegens

First off, this game is a huge advance over FHM1. I have already burned off more hours than I care to think. Thanks.

Right now, when adding real player Facegens to the game, you have to individually import the file for each player, each time you start a game. This is very tedious. I'm working on a mod pack for the Pacific Division, and I have to accept that nobody will see half of the players I'm doing. This is very sad.

An ability to automatically assign a facegen to a player based off the file name, just as we do with team logos, would solve all our problems. It would let people using mods see the "real" faces as slick as a whistle and make things that much more immersive for a decent number of users.

Hopefully this can be worked into a patch.

We definitely want to do this, just working out the details now. It'll probably come as a package deal with better handling of historical uniforms, so those get updated as smoothly as logos do now.
