I was thinking about some RTB database thing when someone uploads a face/decal to RTB it takes all the face/decal files and saves them in cache.db so you can see other's decals as long as they're on RTB, but it seems a little complicated for such a small thing.

Or it can be put in the engine code and not an add-on.

Or have them actively download from the cloud server as the player encounters them, and put them in cache.db.

I'd suggest replacing the current download system with a dynamic cloud system so that we only download what we need while we play, but I am aware of the fact that there are some engine problems with this idea
