Hello everyone, I am making a mini game and the question is, can I transfer an image inside the game (lens) so that another user can use it as a texture?

Hey,

Can you explain more what exactly you want to do.

Also try the Face Image Picker template. maybe that is what you needed

best,

Amir.

such an idea, a photograph is made in the lens (game), after which it can be sent to a friend in the same lens (game), where the game itself is associated with this photo.
So that the photo came not in messages, but directly in the lens of a friend.

Hey,

You cannot do that at this moment in time. but you can take a photo by simply tapping it and it can change the texture. which I guess is a fix but also not, check it out

Using this :

Found here : https://lensstudio.snapchat.com/api/classes/Texture/

// Print the texture's height, width
// Change the texture's name and print it out
//@input Asset.Texture texture

print("Width = " + script.texture.getWidth().toString());
print("Height = " + script.texture.getHeight().toString());

// Takes a screenshot of device camera input and applies it to meshVisual
//@input Asset.Texture deviceCameraTexture
//@input Component.MeshVisual meshVisual
var textureCopy = script.deviceCameraTexture.copyFrame();
script.meshVisual.mainPass.baseTex = textureCopy;

Another question is how to change the main camera input in the script?

Hey,

You cannot change the camera input in runtime at this time.

Best,

Is it possible to transfer the image inside the lens to your friend?

Hey Артём,

I think you're describing a function snappables offers where users can go back and forth with their friends' images in the Lens. Unfortunately this functionality is not currently available within Lens Studio, but I can tell the engineers you'd like to create Lenses like these.

Cheers,
Kaitlyn
