Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, there is a problem that the processing load increases due to the addition of dedicated drawing processing.
[0010] In addition, in the case of combining with animation playback, since the content of animation display is limited (fixed to a few), there is a problem of lack of interactivity
Moreover, in the case of dynamically generating textures, there are also problems such as excessively high requirements, limited compatible models (decreased versatility), and further limited memory capacity.

Embodiment approach 1

[0045] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram showing the schematic configuration of a typical game device realized by the image generating device according to the embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, description will be made with reference to this figure.

[0046]Game device 100 has: CPU (Central Processing Unit) 101, ROM (ReadOnly Memory) 102, RAM (Random Access Memory) 103, interface 104, controller 105, external memory 106, DVD (Digital Versatile Disk)-ROM driver 107, An image processing unit 108 , an audio processing unit 109 , and a NIC (Network Interface Card) 110 .

[0047] Among them, the image generation device of this embodiment is realized by loading a DVD-ROM storing a game program and data into the DVD-ROM drive 107 and turning on the power of the game device 100 to execute the program.

[0048] The CPU 101 controls the overall operation of the game device 100, is connected to each component, and exchanges control signals and data with each other.

Abstract

A replica generating part (240) generates, from object information acquired, a replica object that has the same shape (behavior) as a current enemy character. An object positioning part (250) scales the replica object down based on a distance from a viewpoint to the enemy character (associated enemy character), the angle of view, etc, and it then positions the replica object, for example, on a forward-mounted clip plane in a field of view (view frustum). A contour image generating part (260) uses a dedicated shader to extract the contour from the replica object, thereby generating a contour image. An image rendering part (270) then renders object images including the contour object in the front plane.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image generating device, an image processing method, an information recording medium, and a program capable of displaying an image for easily grasping a game state while reliably suppressing a processing load. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, in three-dimensionally displayed action games, sports games, and the like, various images are displayed for easy understanding of the game situation. For example, a radar screen (radar bitmap) showing the positions of the own character (ally character) and the enemy character, etc., is superimposed on the game screen (view field image in the game). [0003] From such a radar screen, the player can recognize, for example, the arrangement and distance of enemy characters, and thereby understand the overall game situation which is difficult to grasp only from the display of the game image. [0004] As an example, a technology of a video game (game system) that display...
