Trying to get face graphic to appear in scene_battle.

[Bogurd]

Hi All,
I am trying to get face graphics to appear in my battle scene. I know that first I must associate each character directly with a picture filepath, and then write a window that derives directly from window_base that displays the picture associated with character ID x. Then I display it in the scene battle. My knowledge of this is purely theoretical, could someone tell me how to implement these changes into the RGSS?

@Bogurd here is a start for face sets. Read the comments to use them.

Spoiler

# Face Sets
#To use the facesets feature you need to make a folder called 
#Faces in the picture folder and then name the faceset picture the same name 
#its sprite is with _face in it.

# Begin Window Base Edit
class Window_Base < Window
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Draw Actor Face
# This makes the faces
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def draw_actor_face(actor, x, y)
#To use the facesets feature you need to make a folder called 
#Faces in the picture folder and then name the faceset picture the same name 
#its sprite is with _face in it. 
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture("Faces/" + actor.character_name + "_face")
    self.contents.blt(x, y, bitmap, Rect.new(0,0,96,96))
  end
end

Wouldn't the best way be to replace the battler graphics with faces? Unless you want them to be displayed both at once.
