METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING VIRTUAL CHARACTER, COMPUTER DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
This application relates to a method for controlling a virtual character performed by a computer device, the method including: displaying at least a portion of a target virtual character in a virtual scene, the target virtual character being bound with basic bones and deformed bones; triggering the character action of the target virtual character in the virtual scene; when the character action comprises a character movement, controlling the target virtual character to implement the character movement in the virtual scene through a movement of a basic bone associated with the character movement; and when the character action comprises a local character deformation, controlling the target virtual character to implement the local character deformation in the virtual scene through a deformation of a deformed bone associated with the local character deformation.
Game apparatus, storage medium storing game program, game system, and game processing method
An example game apparatus selects an operational character that is to be used by a player in a multiplayer game with competition. The game apparatus selects an additional character that is to be added to the operational character from a plurality of candidates for an additional character to be selected. The additional character is associated with an image of the additional character, information of an effect to be given to performance in the game with competition of the operational character to which the additional character is added, and information about a type. The game apparatus generates a selection image including at least an image of the operational character selected by the player and each other user, an image of the additional character selected by the player, and an image of the type of the additional character, for display, during selection of the operational character and the additional character.
Virtual reality haptic system and apparatus
A virtual reality (VR) system includes a VR display and a VR movement apparatus that includes hand user interfaces (UIs) and foot UIs that can support the hands, feet, seat, and total weight of a user. The VR movement apparatus allow the user's hands and feet to move in 3-dimensional space that include vertical, lateral, and fore-aft direction movements. A computer running VR software coordinate and synchronizes the VR movement apparatus and the VR display to provide system users with simulated activities in a VR environment.
Game processing method and recording medium
A game processing method executed by an information processing device includes moving an ally character on a field in accordance with a player's operation, executing a fight with an enemy character on the field in accordance with the player's operation when the ally character encounters the enemy character, and adding a second motion for vibrating the enemy character to a first motion being executed by the enemy character, when an attack of the ally character hits the enemy character.
Boxing gaming device
The present invention provides a gaming system for playing a boxing inspired game. The gaming device includes two vests that communicate with each other and keep score via wireless technology. The game is played by two players at a time with the general objective being for a player to hit their opponent's vest as many times as possible within the designated time period. The device allows players to engage in three different modes. Score tracking is announced by audio and does not require any additional devices for viewing the score.
VIDEO GAME WITH AUTOMATED SCREEN SHOTS
A system obtains game medium information associated with a game medium in a virtual space. When a predetermined event occurs, the system determines a generation condition for an image of the virtual space based on the game medium information. The system generates an image including the game medium based on the generation condition.
Visual target tracking
A method of tracking a target includes classifying a pixel having a pixel address with one or more pixel cases. The pixel is classified based on one or more observed or synthesized values. An example of an observed value for a pixel address includes an observed depth value obtained from a depth camera. Examples of synthesized values for a pixel address include a synthesized depth value calculated by rasterizing a model of the target; one or more body-part indices estimating a body part corresponding to that pixel address; and one or more player indices estimating a target corresponding to that pixel address. One or more force vectors are calculated for the pixel based on the pixel case, and the force vector is mapped to one or more force-receiving locations of the model representing the target to adjust the model representing the target into an adjusted pose.
Data display method and apparatus, storage medium, and electronic device
A data display method and apparatus, a storage medium, and an electronic device are provided. The method includes: receiving, by a terminal, a first target operation instruction on a client during a process of playing a video of a game on the client; obtaining, by the terminal, process data of a target type in response to the first target operation instruction. The process data indicates game information corresponding to a current moment of the video of the game, and the game information being time-sensitive. The method also includes displaying, by the terminal, a first target interface on the client, the first target interface displaying the process data of the target type.
Graphical user interface for a gaming system
A method and a system for improving a user's experience with a graphical user interface corresponding to a gaming environment, executes a software product corresponding to the game, on the computing hardware of an electronic device. The interface renders multiple graphical objects and user selectable options corresponding to the graphical object. The user selects one or more selectable option, and eventually, performs a touching or a swiping operation through multiple points on the display screen of the graphical object. The touching or swiping operation leads to deploying of multiple resources corresponding to the selected option, at different locations on the interface. For controlling the different deployed resources, the user can swipe through different regions of the display screen, based on his/her desire. The number of resources deployed at the different locations on the screen depends on certain parameters, including the pressure applied by the user on the screen, during performing the touching or swiping operations.
Methods of playing video games
Video game systems for executing instructions according to a video game contained on an item of first media including: an item of second media containing data defining an aspect of the video game; and a video game console including a housing, a first media device supported by the housing, a second media device supported by the housing, and a control unit supported by the housing and configured to control the first media device to read the item of first media and to control the second media device to read the item of second media.
