![]() ![]() The whole thing worked even after a reboot. I was able to use all lenses that were cached. Tried that before and completely disconnected my computer from the internet, turned off Lan, turned off Wlan and started Snap Camera. It is important to set the cache in Snap Camera (settings) as high as possible beforehand in order to be able to save as many lenses as possible. After that, all you really have to do is block Internet access for Snap Camera in your firewall. My guess is Whatsapp doesn't allow for these if it doesn't show. Some do not for various reasons, usually for security/privacy concerns. So you always have a source file that you can fall back on. Depends on the application and if they support the use of virtual camera devices, which OBS uses. Now navigate back to C:\User\Admin\AppData\Local\Snap (important hidden folders must be shown!!), now copy the Snap folder again and add it to your back-up folder. Then you create a backup folder on another drive. Probably under C:\ProgramFiles\SnapInc and copies this folder completely. Then you go to the drive on which you installed Snap Camera. Open Snap Camera, favorite all your favorite lenses and download the Snapcode!!! Preferably with the same name as the lens, so that they remain assignable. ![]() You can use this function by turning on the button below. If Snap Camera was open source (I don't think it is, at least not on Snapchat's GitHub) we could comment out the phone home code, but IDK if Snapchat would be receptive to open-sourcing it instead of disabling it entirely. Virtual Camera allows you to display our current screen in other software (such as zoom, obs, discord etc.) without UI interface, only display VTuber avatars and VTuber Background Room. Since the webcam source substitution is all on the computer, it's not like it needs to know you actually have internet. The meeting app should have webcam selection UI somewhere, so find it, and choose OBS Virtual Camera from the selection. I wonder if we should preemptively download all the lenses we think we could use, then install a firewall like that can be used to specifically block Snap Camera from phoning home & make it think there's no internet. Can't find the original thread but someone asked about it being potentially spyware, and IIRC I commented that I checked out how much up/down data it was exchanging and it was almost none, seemed like only a software update check, downloading new lens directory/thumbnails, downloading new selected lenses, but never streaming the video/sound anywhere. ![]()
