There have been some threads on this lately.

If you want to use custom faces for your missions you have to make a .pbo file with the faces you want to have ingame.

Mission has to be distributed with face-addon .pbo in order to make it work correct on other computers also.

Check out "Addon&Mods complete" If I remember right there is a demo.pbo for face textures somewhere.

indeed most posts about this topic fail to make the decisive point about the setface function because they confuse SP (setface by means of an addon containing faces that can be put on AI units as well) and MP (a JPG file with the custom face in the directory) needs

a direct link to an example addon

Yes, i totally agree, its such a shame you are restricted to using a pbo for custom faces.

you can link to the temp folders and use a custom face from their, but you would need a way of linking to a specific named players folder. You can however link to your players folder and use your custom face in that way.

I did some testing on this a while back, had no problems linking to my players folder or a folder of a player i specifically named. alas i deleted the mission a while back

infact during testing, i actually linked my custom face and loaded it onto a flag
