Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
The virtual role control method provided by the application can be applied to the application environment shown in fig. 1. Wherein the
In an embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, a virtual role control method is provided, where the method may be executed by a terminal device or a server, or may be executed by both the terminal device and the server, and the method is described as an example where the method is executed by the
The virtual scene can be used for simulating a three-dimensional virtual space and can also be used for simulating a two-dimensional virtual space. The virtual scene may include, but is not limited to, sky, land, sea, buildings, mountain forest, target virtual characters, and the like. The virtual scene may be shown after the application is opened, such as after a game is opened. The target virtual character is an active character in the virtual scene. The target avatar may be used to represent an avatar of the user in the virtual scene. The target virtual character may specifically be a target virtual character, a target virtual animal, or the like, but is not limited thereto.
The basic skeleton is used for enabling the target virtual character to realize character movement. The character movement comprises the actions of advancing, retreating, turning, running and the like. The underlying skeleton may specifically be a CS (Character Studio) skeleton. The morphing skeleton is used to morph the target virtual character to implement the character. Character morphing may include, but is not limited to, zooming in, zooming out, telescoping, and the like. The deformed bone may in particular be a dummy bone. In the present application, the basic skeleton and the deformed skeleton may be collectively referred to as a skeleton. Each bone has a unique corresponding bone identifier for distinguishing different bones.
Specifically, the terminal device displays at least a part of the target virtual character in the virtual scene. At least a portion of the target avatar may be, but is not limited to, a head of the target avatar, an avatar of the target avatar, or a side view of the target avatar.
And step 204, triggering role actions of the target virtual role in the virtual scene.
Wherein the character action is used to make the target virtual character move in the virtual scene. The character motion may be, for example, forward, backward, turn, run, zoom in, zoom out, zoom in, release skill, etc., but is not limited thereto.
Specifically, when a role control operation on the target virtual role is detected, a role action of the target virtual role corresponding to the role control operation is triggered in the virtual scene. For example, if w corresponds to forward, s corresponds to backward, a corresponds to movement in a direction, and d corresponds to movement in a right direction, which are input through a keyboard of the terminal device, when a control operation on a w key of a target virtual character is detected, a forward action of the target virtual character corresponding to w is triggered in a virtual scene.
And step 206, when the role action comprises role movement, controlling the target virtual role to implement the role movement in the virtual scene through the movement of the basic skeleton associated with the role movement.
Wherein, each basic skeleton has a unique corresponding basic skeleton identification. Character movement-associated basic skeleton may be, for example, a basic skeleton of a character limb, a basic skeleton including only legs, or the like, without being limited thereto.
Specifically, when the role action triggered in the virtual scene includes role movement, the terminal device may determine, through the basic skeleton identifier associated with the role movement, the basic skeleton associated with the role movement. The terminal equipment controls the target virtual role to implement role movement in the virtual scene through the movement of the basic skeleton associated with the role movement. Taking the role movement as walking and the basic skeleton associated with walking as the basic skeleton of four limbs as an example for explanation, the terminal device controls the target virtual role to implement role walking in the virtual scene through the swing of the basic skeleton of four limbs associated with the role movement.
And step 208, when the role action comprises role local deformation, controlling the target virtual role to implement the role local deformation in the virtual scene through deformation of a deformed skeleton associated with the role local deformation.
Wherein each deformed bone has a unique corresponding deformed bone identifier. The local deformation of the character may be deformation of a part of the body of the character, deformation of a weapon of the character, or the like. The deformed skeleton associated with the local deformation of the role can be set according to the needs of the role. The deformed skeleton associated with the local deformation of the character may be set as needed, and may be specifically set according to the type of the virtual character, and the like. For example, the deformed skeleton associated with the type a of the virtual character is a deformed skeleton at the neck, and the deformed skeleton associated with the type B of the virtual character is a deformed skeleton at the limbs, and the like are not limited thereto.
Specifically, when the role action triggered in the virtual scene includes role local deformation, the terminal device may determine a deformed skeleton associated with the role movement through a deformed skeleton identifier associated with the role movement. The terminal equipment controls the target virtual role to implement role local deformation in the virtual scene through deformation of the deformed skeleton associated with the role local deformation. For example, taking the case where the character local deformation is a right arm enlargement and the deformed skeleton associated with the right arm enlargement is a right arm deformed skeleton, the terminal device controls the target virtual character to perform the right arm enlargement in the virtual scene by enlarging the associated right arm deformed skeleton.
In this embodiment, when the role action includes role movement and role local deformation, the terminal device controls the target virtual role to implement the role movement in the virtual scene through movement of a basic skeleton associated with the role movement, and the terminal device controls the target virtual role to implement the role local deformation in the virtual scene through deformation of a deformed skeleton associated with the role local deformation.
In this embodiment, the type of the local deformation of the character may be at least one. For example, the local deformation of the role comprises local deformation X and local deformation Y, the local deformation X can be triggered by an X key of a keyboard, and the deformed skeleton associated with the local deformation X is a deformed skeleton of four limbs; the Y local deformation can be triggered by a Y key of the keyboard, and the deformed skeleton associated with the Y local deformation is the head deformed skeleton. Then when the character action comprises an X local deformation, the control target virtual character implements the character limb deformation in the virtual scene through the deformation of the limb deformation skeleton associated with the X local deformation. When the character action comprises Y local deformation, the target virtual character is controlled to implement character head deformation in the virtual scene through the deformation of the head deformation skeleton associated with the Y local deformation.
In this embodiment, for example, when the character action triggering the target virtual character in the game is to release a skill, and when the skill includes a character motion, for example, the character motion is a kicking, the target virtual character is controlled to implement the kicking action in the game through the motion of a leg basic skeleton associated with the kicking; when the skill further includes thickening of the leg, that is, when the skill is a leg thickening while kicking, the control target virtual character performs leg deformation during the game by enlarging the leg deformation skeleton associated with the thickening of the leg. In the above example, the game is a virtual scene, the release skill is a character motion, the kicking is a character motion, and the leg thickening is a local deformation of the character.
According to the virtual character control method, the target virtual character is bound with the basic skeleton and the deformed skeleton, when the character action triggered in the virtual scene comprises character movement, the target virtual character is controlled to implement the character movement through the movement of the basic skeleton, when the character action triggered in the virtual scene comprises local character deformation, the local character deformation is implemented through the deformation of the deformed skeleton, compared with a mode of manually drawing an animation of the virtual character in the prior art, the virtual character control efficiency can be improved, meanwhile, as the target virtual character is controlled through the basic skeleton and the deformed skeleton, too many images do not need to be stored, and the occupied storage space can be reduced.
In one embodiment, the movement of the underlying bone includes at least one of bone movement and bone rotation; the deformation of the deformed bone includes at least one of local expansion and contraction of the bone and global scaling of the bone.
In particular, bone movement refers to the movement of bone from one location to another location in a virtual scene. Bone rotation means that the bone moves around the axis but does not change position. Partial bone contraction refers to lengthening or shortening one end of the bone. The bone whole zoom means that the bone is wholly enlarged or wholly reduced. The motion of the underlying bone may include only bone movement, or only bone rotation, or both bone movement and bone rotation. The deformation of the deformed bone may include only local bone expansion or only global bone contraction or both.
According to the virtual character control method, the movement of the basic skeleton comprises at least one of skeleton movement and skeleton rotation, the deformation of the deformed skeleton comprises at least one of skeleton local expansion and skeleton whole scaling, namely the basic skeleton and the deformed skeleton can respectively realize different functions, so that different character actions of the target virtual character are realized, and the interactivity of the virtual character is improved.
In one embodiment, the target virtual character is generated by a character construction step comprising: creating a base skeleton of the target virtual character, the base skeleton comprising more than one base skeleton; adding at least one deformed bone to the base skeleton; and carrying out skinning treatment on the basic skeleton added with the deformed skeleton to obtain the target virtual role.

The terminal equipment adds at least one deformed skeleton on the basis of the basic skeleton. For example, the terminal device may add deformed bone to the extremities of the base skeleton. And the terminal equipment carries out skinning treatment on the basic skeleton added with the deformed skeleton to obtain the target virtual role.
In this embodiment, after the skin treatment is performed on the basic skeleton added with the deformed skeleton, the terminal device performs the mapping treatment to obtain the target virtual character.
In this embodiment, the terminal device may adjust the virtual skeleton of the target virtual character according to actual requirements. For example, adjusting the length, size, etc. of each bone in the virtual skeleton, or adding a base bone and reducing a base bone, etc.

In addition to being used for developing electronic games, Unity is also a comprehensive authoring tool widely used for interactive contents of building visualization, real-time three-dimensional animation and the like.
Specifically, the terminal device takes the skinned target virtual character as a model and introduces the model into the three-dimensional engine. The target virtual character may be displayed in the three-dimensional engine.
At
The prefabricated member can be prefab, which can be regarded as an assembly template used for batch applying work. For example, in a virtual scene, a model which needs to be reused, such as an enemy, a soldier, a weapon, a bullet or any wall body which is completely the same as the brick, etc. prefab looks like a clone, but the position, angle, or some property generated is different, just like a c + + inner edge class.
Specifically, the terminal device generates the model into a preform by a three-dimensional engine.
The animation configuration file can comprise animation parameters for controlling the basic skeleton and the deformed skeleton, and can also comprise a target virtual character to implement the character action process.
Specifically, the terminal device imports an animation configuration file of the preform into the three-dimensional engine.
And 308, calling the prefabricated part through the three-dimensional engine to generate a target virtual character under the virtual scene, and controlling the target virtual character to implement the character action through the action parameter value of the animation configuration file.
The action parameter value is used for expressing at least one of a movement parameter value of a basic skeleton, a rotation parameter value of the basic skeleton, a stretching parameter value of a deformed skeleton and a scaling parameter value of the deformed skeleton in the target virtual character. The action parameter value can be sent to the terminal device by the server or stored by the terminal device. And the terminal equipment realizes the motion of the related skeleton through the motion parameter value and controls the target virtual role to implement role motion. The associated bone may be at least one of a basic bone and a deformed bone.
Specifically, the prefab such as prefab is called through the three-dimensional engine to generate a target virtual character in a virtual scene, the target virtual character is configured based on the parameter values of the imported animation configuration file, and the target virtual character is controlled to implement character actions through the parameter values of the animation configuration file. For example, the terminal device generates an animation configuration file through 3DS max software, the animation configuration file of the prefabricated part is imported into the three-dimensional engine, and the action parameter values of each skeleton in the animation configuration file can be analyzed through the three-dimensional engine, so that the basic skeleton and the deformed skeleton can be controlled based on the action parameter values, and the target virtual character implements the character action.
According to the virtual character control method, the target virtual character subjected to skin treatment is taken as a model and is led into the three-dimensional engine, the model is used for generating the prefabricated part through the three-dimensional engine, the animation configuration file is led in, the prefabricated part is called to generate the target virtual character under the virtual scene, the action parameter value of the animation configuration file is used for controlling the target virtual character to implement the character action, the target virtual character can be controlled through the action parameter value to realize deformation, a plurality of images do not need to be stored, and the occupied storage space is reduced.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, a flowchart of a virtual character control method in another embodiment is shown. After start, enter 3DS MAX software. Among them, the 3DS MAX is also called 3D Studio MAX, often referred to as 3D MAX or 3dsMAX for short, and is a three-dimensional animation rendering and producing software based on a PC (Personal Computer) system. The step of erecting the skeleton for the diagonal comprises the following steps: and creating a basic skeleton of the target virtual character, wherein the basic skeleton comprises more than one basic skeleton, and at least one deformed skeleton is added to the basic skeleton.

Wherein unity is a three-dimensional engine. The manufacturing of prefab includes: the model is generated as prefab by a three-dimensional engine. Namely, pre fab includes the erected skeleton, skin bindings, and models. Where prefab is a preform. Animation import unit is the animation configuration file for importing the prefabricated member in the unit. Parsing the animation configuration file may show the artistic effect and animation effect of the target virtual character. Configuration refers to configuring prefab and animation configuration files together in unity. And calling the prefabricated member by the program to generate a target virtual character under the virtual scene, and controlling the target virtual character to implement the character action through the action parameter value of the animation configuration file.
In one embodiment, adding at least one deformed bone to the base skeleton comprises: determining a target basic skeleton in the basic skeleton; determining the number of deformed bones according to the length of a target basic bone; at the position of the target basic skeleton on the basic skeleton, deformed bones of the number of deformed bones connected in order are added.
Wherein, the position corresponding to the target basic skeleton is the position corresponding to the deformed skeleton to be added. The number of target underlying bones is not limited. And the target basic skeleton is at least one basic skeleton preset in the basic skeleton.
Specifically, the terminal device determines a target basic skeleton in the basic skeleton. The target basic skeleton may be a preset basic skeleton, such as a basic skeleton at a limb. Or the terminal equipment can determine a target basic skeleton in the basic skeleton according to the type of the virtual role. For example, if the virtual character is a virtual character, then the target underlying skeleton may be an arm; the virtual character is a virtual monster and the target underlying skeleton may be a leg.
And the terminal equipment determines the number of deformed bones according to the length of the target basic bones. At the position of the target basic skeleton on the basic skeleton, deformed bones of the number of deformed bones connected in order are added. For example, the target avatar is a virtual character, the target base skeleton may be an arm skeleton, and the target base skeleton is four pieces. Then two deformed bones can be erected on the basic skeleton of each program mark according to the length of the target basic skeleton. Since the deformed skeleton is a cube, if only one deformed skeleton is erected on one target base skeleton, the arm of the virtual character may be thick, and thus the number of deformed skeletons needs to be adjusted based on the design size of the arm of the target virtual character.
According to the virtual character control method, the number of the deformed bones is determined according to the length of the target basic bones, and the deformed bones of the number of the deformed bones which are sequentially connected are added at the position of the target basic bones on the basic skeleton, so that the number of the deformed bones is more matched with the virtual character, and the fidelity of the obtained target virtual character can be improved.

The virtual scene may be, but not limited to, RPG (Role-playing game), SRPC (game Role-playing game), and the like. The thumbnail object is the reduced image of the target virtual character. The thumbnail objects may be used to perform a character action on the character action map. The virtual scene of character interaction means that the virtual scene comprises at least two virtual characters, wherein one virtual character is a target virtual character, and the target virtual character can interact with another virtual character in the virtual scene.
Specifically, the terminal device displays a thumbnail object of the target virtual character on the character action map. When the movement operation of the thumbnail object is detected, the terminal device controls the thumbnail object to move in the action range of the thumbnail object. When the movement of the thumbnail object satisfies the interaction triggering condition, the interaction triggering condition is, for example, that the terminal device switches to a virtual scene in which the Character interacts when the target virtual Character meets other virtual characters in other camps, or the target virtual Character falls within an attack range of other virtual characters in other camps, or the target virtual Character meets an NPC (Non-Player Character) in battle, or the terminal device triggers a skill releasing operation or a playing olympic operation, but is not limited thereto. The terminal device displays at least one part of a target virtual character in a virtual scene of character interaction, the target virtual character is bound with a basic skeleton and a deformed skeleton, the character action of the target virtual character is triggered in the virtual scene, and when the character action comprises character movement, the target virtual character is controlled to implement the character movement in the virtual scene of character interaction through the movement of the basic skeleton associated with the character movement; when the role action comprises role local deformation, the target virtual role is controlled to implement the role local deformation in the virtual scene through the deformation of the deformed skeleton associated with the role local deformation.
For example, in a battle chess game, a thumbnail object of royy is displayed on a map of the battle chess game, and the thumbnail object is controlled to move within the action range of a displayed square. When the Roy thumbnail object moves to a position where a robust work is spacious, the skill needs to be released or the Olympic content needs to be played, at the moment, the body of the Roy thumbnail object needs to be exaggeratedly deformed, and the Roy thumbnail object needs to be switched into a virtual scene of character interaction as shown in FIG. 5. FIG. 5 is a diagram of an interface of a virtual scene with which characters interact according to an embodiment.
