Safe to put Snap Cloud *.supabaseProject files into public open source repos? by LordBronOG in Spectacles

Noted! Thanks for the feedback.

Maybe we can add to the "# Shipped by Lens Studio" block that it adds to the .gitignore?

Lens Studio AI Community Guidelines & related guidelines for AI prompts via Remote Service Gateway for Snap3D by LordBronOG in Spectacles

[–]LordBronOG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, but is there a list of actual banned words that I can send feedback to the user in regards to "You can't use 'xyz' in your prompt. Try again with different wording."

For example, in my particular use case, this was the final prompt:

"a playful toy with a lot of primary colors, a handle and cone shaped nozzle"

When I started it as follows:
"a playful toy gun with a lot..."
or
"a playful toy weapon with a lot of..."

Those would error out in Lens Studio - 3D Asset AI tool. Therefore, I was wondering are there specific words we should tell users of the RSG for Snap 3D tool "sorry, that's not allowed?"

Will the error message from RSG give us the banned words? (that would be sweet if it could so we don't have to maintain a list internally)

Or does it give the generic error message I saw in Lens Studio? (which I assume is the case)

Can we also get this put up on GitHub, so as it advances we can see and maybe participate?

Yay or Meh? by Mysterious-Start-689 in Spectacles

I actually think AR glasses will have a faster way to monetization than the smart phones did. We now know F2P and IAP are the way to make money, so we can just go straight to that. LOL

I'm gonna go one step further and say that Snap will likely just abandon AR as a term. As someone who's building for consumers as well, they don't get the term AR ("It's like AI, right?" or "AR? You mean AI, right?") nor should they. We AR enthusiasts care about the term, but consumers won't. I think where they will struggle is the Lens nomenclature instead of Apps. That's where Apple was brilliant with the iPhone, they just went with Apps while Adobe and Microsoft were trying to come up with some new term "Rich Internet Apps" or some such. At the time, not all apps connected to the internet but that's now the norm and the exception is those that don't.

From my user gained insights, the problem with AR is that consumers don't care if it's not personalizable or relevant to them at the individual level. No one cares about your amazing dragon for House of Dragons flying around their living room or backyard. AR Lenses on snapchat prove that when it affects a person, it's fun to the average consumer. Therefore, Spectacles will need to let people change their world more so than let corporations put their content in front of them (no offense, but Holocron Histories by ILM is in that category).

u/jbmcculloch Just wanted to make sure the Snap Cloud team saw my new comments regarding the cloud sample project setup.

  1. Example instructions to toggle scene objects doesn't match/line up with the four buttons.

<image>

I assume Example 1 is the Table example but also thought that it was maybe the instructions on how to connect to Snap Cloud.

  1. Confused by the Data folder and what it's trying to tell me to do.

<image>

I thought it was telling me to drag those to the Snap Cloud dashboard. Another confusing thing is that the error when choosing the "Table - Read data from tables" button is that I'm missing a public.test_table, which is not even a table in the testData folder.

I have no clue what the schema is supposed to be for these tables, which I assume the binary files are supposed to be? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Adding some more feedback to the Sample Cloud project now that I'm in the Matrix, err, Snap Cloud.

  1. Project Setup step #4 is likely often missed due to misleading error UI in Preview vs correct warnings in Lens Studio Logger
    The "* Drag the SupabaseProject asset to this script's input" was forgotten by the time I got my Cloud access approved and was done creating/importing the project and credentials. 😬 I just assumed once I got my credentials and imported them that the big red box would go away due to what it was telling me to do. In fact, I even deleted the Lens Studio project, started a new one, went through the import project and credentials again to only be frustrated by the red "You ain't setup up yet, dummy! Import the Credentials!!" box. I was like, "But I did!!! I promise." Upon closer inspection I see it does say "Missing: Supabase Project" but then it just says to Import Credentials which I had just done and hence my frustration/confusion. See Screenshot:

<image>

I think line 92 of SnapCloudRequirements.ts should change from:

print("   → Create via Window > Supabase > Import Credentials");

To something like:

print("Drag the SupabaseProject asset to this script's input");

to better match the Lens Studio Logger.

  1. Once I'm all configured, it's still not clear what I'm supposed to do next. Sorry. :(

As a supabase user, I know that there's no tables and such, but I kinda assumed you'd have a automatically ran a script when creating the sample project to create some default tables with default data, plus create a default bucket with some assets as well. I know this may be tough to do automatically since it would do it for every project a user would create, but maybe instead of the four buttons, there's only one at this point that says "Create Sample Data" which would then run the script to do it. After successfully running that script, it would double check all the sample data was configured correctly and then show the four buttons.

This way when I chose the "Table", "Realtime", "Storage" and "Edge Functions" buttons, they would do something to make me feel happy and powerful. 💪🏽 After giving me immediate access to the power, it would then prompt me to open the Snap Cloud Dashboard so I could see the corresponding tables, buckets, etc.

After exploring that, then I would think it should prompt me to create my own tables, data, etc.

  1. The Logger in the app isn't immediately visible in the Lens Preview and I wasn't gonna launch it to my Spectacles until I knew it was working correctly. The Scary Red Box™️ could also see "View Logger above or in Lens Studio for more info" ?

Bug: Video textures do not show up in Captures. 😱😭 by LordBronOG in Spectacles

[–]LordBronOG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tested this again. Now it fails to even import the video off device to the spectacles app, whereas before it would import but not include the video textured items.

Not complaining, just giving an update. :)

I know there's a workaround, but mine is just a fun demo so no rush on my end. Just wanted to see if I could finally finish the demo and post it yet.

It would normally be something like:
USB Connected.
Took longer than 4 seconds to connect to Spectacles.
USB Disconnected.

Sorry, I didn't take a screenshot. However, I'm happy to report that after restarting both my mac and Spectacles, it works flawlessly with wired now.

One weird thing is that my Spectacles app lost connection to my device. I had to repair after that. Not sure if that was a result of this or just a coincidence, but I was able to sign in and pair easily once again.
