Battletech Pilot Portraits. Any way to only have the pilot portraits changed? I like the new pilot portraits, but the others, for liaisons and such, not so much.
I edit the file and enter a portrait path for icon: but the game seems to ignore that when i start a new campaign and just goes back to the default. Many thanks to gaultesian and jwolf1672 for the advice.

You can decide which mech to deploy, how to loadout them, and which pilot in each.

So if you want your replacement pilots to have their portrait generated by the game, this is where you associate them, and you are all done. Mechwarriors are the soft, creamy filling of the gigantic tin cans that prowl the battlefields of battletech. You did a great job so far to figure this all out, as i said above!
