Lag and Too Many Options in Script Graph
I'm a programmer and sometimes teach new-media tools such as Lens Studio and Meta Spark in Taiwan. Most of my students do not have coding skills, so Script Graph is a really nice feature to let them get hands-on making interactive experiences, and is also very easy to teach. (And they like the Patch Editor in Meta Spark a lot)
Although Lens Studio 5 hasn't officially supported Script Graph yet, as someone who is interested and cares about visual scripting, I have tried it out and would like to provide some feedback.
It seems to me that Script Graph does…
1 voteAs you've already commented, Script Graph is currently not supported in 5.0. So the issues you are having are some that are expected to be issues.
We are continuing to review our script graph functions and are working on forging our best path forward. Thanks for your feedback! We will let you know when we have updates!

More robust LAT debugging tools.
As LAT is now a hard metric for Lens approval, especially for advertising and commercial lenses, we need more robust tools for debugging LAT performance in lenses.
Common issues being seen are large differences between LAT reporting in debugging on device vs reported debugging when a Lens is submitted (often 2x or more).
Even when following the guidelines for remote assets and async prefab loading, these can seem to have little to no effect.It would be great to have a comprehensive list of which specific technologies within Lens studio incur LAT spikes and specific mitigation steps to get these…
1 voteThanks Liam for the thoughtful notes. I know that we discussed this recently in our Open house meeting.
We are continuing to explore ways to make this process better. We will offer updates when possible

I need a separate section for gaming (2D/3D) included in Lens Studio sample projects for better practice.
As the title suggests, we, as users, love creating games. However, for newcomers, even understanding the simplest concepts can be challenging. Having a dedicated collection of sample projects focused solely on gaming would be incredibly beneficial. It would not only make learning more enjoyable but also inspire creativity, enabling users to craft unique AR experiences within a gaming environment.
1 voteHey Joel, this is a great note. Thanks for passing it to the team.
We are always looking for ways to make game creation more intuitive. This is why we recently added the Leaderboard feature which makes the entire game making process better on Snapchat.
We also recently built a brand new tutorial series specifically focused on game creation here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0rDQ-c-_kxcwwBccaz1N9Rmz_xgyijRg
As far as the feedback for more sample projects -- we will consider what is possible and let you know!

GenAI for SFX
While we now have exhaustive tools and features for visual generation, one of the way experiences really come alive is sounds and music etc. as well in addition to the visual appearance. A genAI tool like this would really accelerate the high quality development

increasing the number of qualified regions for the qualified posters
A proposal to increase the number of qualified regions for the qualified posters, which would help maintain the enthusiasm of Lens creators and encourage them to be more creative. The current situation feels discouraging and diminishes the motivation of Lens creators.
The qualified regions could be aligned with those eligible in all of Snapchat's reward programs, such as the regions qualified on Spotlight and Story reward.
2 votesHey Hakim,
Wanted to circle back here.
While we consider all feedback, it is important to understand that a country not being included as a qualified region is not a negative.
We select the qualified regions to serve as good sampling of the international perspective of your lens.
If you're lens performs well in these regions its also likely going to perform well in your own region.

Add a new counting period
Here’s a suggestion that aligns with the duration set for lens eligibility by adding a new counting period to the statistics list, which currently includes:
7 days 28 days All timeThe proposal is to add a 90-day counting period, which has become a specific timeframe for lens eligibility. This will help lens creators track their lens statistics over 90 days. Thank you.
2 votesThis is a good suggestion and we will look at when we can potentially execute it! Thanks!

Send a mail when Draft lens is ready
A mail is not send when a Draft lens is ready. This feature is used to quickly send out test links to clients. Would be nice to get a notification as there's none right now.

Hand segmentation textures for left, right or both hands
Currently the hand segmentation texture only works for one hand, it would be convenient to have an option to specify which (or both) hand gets segmented.
6 votesHey Rob, would you mind explaining a bit more about your use cases for this particular request? Especially double hand tracking. With one hand usually holding the phone, we don't see this use case too often!

LAT - Project-wide asynchronous loading
I am running into LAT issues quite often, even on relatively simple lenses. I feel like the push for a low LAT is going to lead to lots of very low quality, simple lenses because maintaining a low-enough LAT introduces complexity into the project. Currently I will finish up a lens, turn it into a prefab, then use the scene manager to load it asynchronously. It works, but it leads to a very clunky developer experience because now I have to remember to apply my prefab changes and then disable the prefab again so that the scene manager is the…
2 votesHey Mike,
Your post has spurred important discussions, We will continue to update you as we find additional ways to improve LAT including reviewing your thoughts here.
Thanks

Favorite Assets and Most Used for the Asset Library
It's great that Lens Studio has so many assets but sometimes it is hard to find certain assets without remembering their full name. Or other times I would see something I want to try later but I day later I won't remember what it was. If we could favorite assets that would significantly help with that problem.
Another tab that would be also very helpful - most used assets so we don't have to look for the assets we use all the time.
2 votesThis is a good idea -- there are some challenges we will have to explore for personalization.
We will let you know as we consider the idea

1 on 1 mentorship program
Members of the community or even some SLN who want to improve their skills can apply to be matched with SLN members who are willing to mentor them and teach them skills in creating lenses for different criteria. Some focus areas can be creating for engagement or for advanced technical innovation. If resources are available, we can do networking with everyone involved, etc.
2 votesWe love this idea for 1:1 mentorship opportunities. It's something that would take some time for our team to develop. We will consider this in the future!

Feature to delete all assets not directly referenced in the scene
In 4.55.1 and a some versions before that, we were able to delete all assets that weren't referenced in the scene, this feature was marvelous to help preserve order in the project files and for optimization purposes. If possible please bring that feature back. As it is honestly an amazing feature.

Photo and video recording for snap hosted Web AR lenses
Snap Web AR lenses work amazingly well, but they lacks recording ability. Would be nice to have the same UI as on Snap (tap to take a picture, hold to record a video).
11 votesThanks for your feedback Denis! This is certainly a piece of feedback we have gotten a lot. We are looking into ways this might make sense.

Custom Code Node Typing Suggestions
When writing a custom code node in LS 5.0, the suggestions are not very smart.
For example, in LS for, if you want to get a normal vector you could type "system.normal" and it would suggest automatically "system.getSurfaceNormalWorldSpace".
In LS 5.0 that doesn't happen, you need to type the exact same thing as the API.
My suggestion is to make it a little bit smarter like it used to be in LS 5 ;)
Cheers,

Improve Undo Command (Ctrl + Z)
In LS 4 you could undo after importing something to the Resources/Asset Browser panel.
In LS 5 it only undo stuff in the Objects/Scene Hierarchy panel.
So if you import something, regret it and try to undo, it's going to undo the last action on the objects panel instead of the actual last action that was the import.
4 votesHey Caio, thanks for the report. Currently this is how lens studio 5.0 is setup. We will look into potentially tackling this in the future. Thanks for keeping this on our radar.

Lens Studio 5.0 digital goods
I really appreciate the new features and updates in Lens Studio 5.0. I would like to offer a suggestion that could be highly beneficial for all creators.
You should add digital goods to Lens Studio 5.0 as soon as possible. Adding digital goods will provide significant benefits to many creators. It will help enhance their creativity and monetization opportunities.
I have personally earned a significant amount using digital goods, totaling 100,000+ coins. Therefore, I strongly urge you to make digital goods available in the next version of Lens Studio 5.0 as soon as possible.
Thank you.
2 votesCurrently adding digital goods to lens studio 5.0 is in the backlog but we do not have any timeline at this time.
In the meantime, we ask that you use Lens Studio 4.55 for any ILDG lenses at this time

Top Lenses (Top Posted Lenses)
Hi Team,
I am writing to suggest an enhancement to the new 'Post' metrics in the My-Lenses section. It would be incredibly beneficial to have an option in the dropdown menu for 'Top Posted Lenses'. This feature would allow users to easily identify which lenses are being posted the most. (See image as reference)
