Development of the content of upcoming explanations
Hello SnapAR Team
I hope this topic is important in your modern journey
We would like you to focus and urge that there is a channel or course that provides explanations for interactive lens makers, explanations of the JavaScript, TypeScript and the game lens in detail, and even if it is complex, they will be interested in this field in large numbers and we will raise the creative rate of professional lens makers, and a qualitative leap for current makers.
13 votesWe did publish a new physics Games Tutorial series this year that think really helps teach this a lot better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qFNnicTXRw
We also did this written tutorial on Bitmoji Running games: https://developers.snap.com/lens-studio/tutorials/tutorials/bitmoji-runner-game/runner-game-1
While there will always be more to learn -- we feel like this tutorial fills a big gap. We are hoping for more important additions to our gaming workflows really soon!
Keep watching https://developers.snap.com/ for more amazing content!

GenAI
So with the new GenAI on lens studio being a thing, does this prevent creators from being invited to SLN? Considering the entire SLN network could be flooded with unoriginal 3D or AR projects?
Just asking for feedback and if it is even worth it to create your own projects in hopes of becoming and OLC for Snapchat.
1 voteHi AJ,
We understand that there is a concern that AI tools is making lens creation more difficult.
Here is how we view it. SLN is about finding exceptional talent that push the boundaries of their tools.
Our primary criteria for SLN today is:
- Technical prowess: Do you show the ability to produce lenses that show a variety of skills beyond simple lens creation?
- Craftsmanship: Are your lenses well designed and cleanly produced?
- Originality and Creativity: Are your lenses unique and creative? We aren’t interested in duplicate concepts. We are looking for developers who do something new and unique.
- Professionalism: Are your communications with the Snap team and other community members representative of respect and professionalism?
However, as AI progresses, we may also be excited by developers who show the ability to create really compelling content quickly with those tools. However, it won't stop us from rewarding the developers we…

Dual Camera Lenses
I would like the ability to make a lens that uses the front facing camera and the world facing camera at the same time. The reason is so that I can animate blendshapes on the face mesh with MY FACE while the camera feed is from the world facing camera.
16 votesHi Kevin. Happy to come back to this and let you know that dual camera lenses support was released as part of Lens Studio 5.6. You can find the Reverse Camera Texture in Lens Studio's resources, and a helper Custom Component in the Asset Library. For more see: https://developers.snap.com/lens-studio/features/camera/dual-camera

API Search Filter
When I'm writing a script I usually want to search for something in the API, but whenever I go to the documentation, the search engine shows me a bunch of other things like templates, guides, etc. A filter in the search box to let us search for API entries only would be very helpful.
1 voteThis issue has been resolved in our new beta site!

Leaderboard documentation has many broken links
The whole api section of the leaderboard documentation is full of broken links, basically any that try to link to the scripting api are using the wrong url:
https://developers.snap.com/lens-studio/platform-solutions/user-context/leaderboard#api
1 voteApologies for the late reply on this Brandon!
We did actually act upon your feedback pretty quickly after you submitted it.
The links were fixed. Thanks for the help!

Native Import Support For Gaussian Splats
Observing how the 3D industry is shifting and progressing especially photogrammetry being out performed by NeRFs and Gaussian Splats, it would be krazyy to have a native import and rendering support for richer format Splats recorded by the likes of Luma Labs AI and Polycam etc. Right now the main challenge is the 3D object export from these processing is nowhere near the quality of splats. I know it can be challenging to implement it but it would be very useful to have it in LS
4 votesWe are excited that this has been added to Lens Studio 5.0 in the latest release! Excited for you to check it out!

Templates
Hello.
Are Landmarker templates going to be available soon for Lens Studio 5.0. I have still been using Lens Studio 4 versions for these and it would be so great to have them for 5.0.
It would actually be great to have all the templates back in 5.0. Thank you!
1 voteWe released the landmarkers sample project since 5.0.17. All the other landmarkers can be found in the Asset Library. There are docs in the sample project to show user how to use the sample project with the assets.

Auto Save
I've lost a lot of work because of LS 5 beta crashing before I save the project. And without backups, this really sucks

This feature will allow you to set intervals that your project is saved over your current project file

Lens Creator Rewards (Lens Studio 5.0)
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to provide some feedback and request a revision to the current Lens Creator Rewards program.
As an active Lens creator, I am proud to share that my Lenses consistently achieve between 100 million to 200 million views, with over 100,000 qualified posters per Lens. Despite these impressive metrics, I have identified a significant concern regarding the requirement for unique qualified posters in the rewards criteria.
The current structure, which prioritizes unique qualified posters, presents a challenge. If a single Lens performs exceptionally well, as mine often do, there is little…
1 voteIt sounds like there might be some confusion about how the current program works based on the feedback you had shared so I will do my best to respond to your points.
- A single Lenses performance will not have any impact on future Lenses submitted. That goes to say that if you create a Lens that does exceptionally well, it will not limit the earning or engagement potential of future Lenses in any way.
- Each Lens’ engagement is calculated individually, and the rewards can overlap. We hope that the motivation lies within the ability to increase your earned awards based on the number of Lenses that reach the engagement threshold. The more Lenses you create that reach that 15,000 Unique Qualified Posters, the more you will earn.
- Our program currently only counts Qualified Posters from the qualified countries as you described!
- Unfortunately we cannot issue rewards to every Lens submitted…

Edit options for Head/Face mesh
In previous versions of Lens Studio, you could select whether the eye/mouth mesh would be displayed. Now there's no way to enable/disable that.
5 votesHey Phil,
I am sure you have realized -- but I believe this has been solved in past updates.

Phone Shake Detection
Hey there,
I'm really eager for Lens Studio to include a feature where we can trigger actions with a simple phone shake! (shake detection) It would add so much fun to the creative process.
Cheers,
Baruch1 voteThere is actually a great Shake Detection asset available in the asset library that was built by developer Nick Kazakov. We recommend you check it out!

Dynamic text display widgets
Now that ChatGPT is available in LS 5.0, we need a way to display dynamic strings easily in LS. Basically a text field that can resize itself to the length of a string.
3 votesWe actually have built an "Expanding Text Input" asset in the asset library. We hope this helps achieve this easily!

Change the color of texture generation UI buttons
I find myself clicking on the "apply" button everytime I'm regenerating a texture. That happens because the apply button is highlighted in blue, while the regenerate button is in grey.
My suggestion is to highlight both buttons in blue.
2 votesSo we had made this edit earlier this year. If you edit any of the fields after generation, "Regenerate" automatically gets refocused instead of the "Apply" button. We hope that helps you with regenerating assets a lot more quickly!
