snap camera won't show graph material with textures
I created a lens that works perfect in snapchat and lens studio using both, horizontal and vertical screen. The problem is that some materials are not showing in snap camera. I'm using materials from the library and other from templates. The ones not showing are the ones with star and pink rectangle in the icon and using a texture(rope, tag, cap_shadow). I was not able to find an answer to this. Thanks in advance.

Hi Marcela,
It looks like your version of Snap Camera might be out of date. Try updating to the latest version and let me know if the issue persists.

Thanks Ghaith. I'm using the latest version.
Hi Marcela,
Usually the issue of Pink/black happened when imported into Lens Studio, the material that gets created assumes you want a texture and haven't assigned it yet.
1- Find the material in the resources panel and select it.
2- Check all texture properties on the material to ensure the texture is set or the texture property is disabled.
Please let me know if the issue persists.

I don't understand what you mean by checking the texture is set. I found exactly the same answer in the forum, but I don't get it.
Here I'm uploading a screenshot of one of the materials with texture set (according to me) and the graph mapper.
Having the same issue. A lens I made works correctly in Lens Studio and on the app, but does not work on Snap Camera. It shows purple and black textures where there should be images. The texture is set to an image I uploaded. Snap Camera is up to date.
Hi Marcela,
I tried to look-up your lens in Snap Camera but I couldn't find it ..
which give me indicator that your lens it may not be compatible with Snap Camera
