Game rendering method and device

Abstract

The invention discloses a game rendering method and device. The game rendering method comprises the steps of recording a loading path of a texture used in a current game scene when game resources are loaded; obtaining a grid to be rendered in the current game scene; detecting whether a texture used by the grid to be rendered is loaded into a memory or not; when the texture is not loaded, conducting asynchronous loading on the texture through a background thread according to the loading path of the texture, so that the texture is loaded into the memory, and skipping the rendering of the texture for a current rendering batch; when the texture is loaded ready, submitting the texture to a rendering engine for conducting the rendering. According to the game rendering method and device, the texture rendering process is controlled, so that memory space occupied by the texture in the game operation process is greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a game rendering method and device. Background technique [0002] The memory occupied by a game or software is an important indicator for evaluating the quality of a game or software. Taking games as an example, when a computer or mobile terminal is running a game, the smaller the memory occupied by the game, the more resources can be released, so that other programs that the user runs at the same time run more smoothly. There are a large number of low-end mobile phones on the market in China. Major operators and mobile phone manufacturers often use very low hardware configurations in order to keep prices down. The memory of mobile phones is relatively small. It will cause the game not to run. Therefore, minimizing the memory required to run the game can ensure that the game can run normally on more machines and thus gain more user base. [0003] At present, the opti...

Problems solved by technology

In addition, for some modules with complex resources in the game engine, such as the unity window UI module, it is often difficult for programmers to determine whether some texture images are still used by other places after the form is released, and it is necessary to write a special export plug-in to strip resources and statistics resource information

However, many developers will not do this kind of thing, or they are not aware of the problem of memory usage at all. Often at the later stage of the project, everything has been completed, and the operating platform reports that the successful installed capacity of the game is very low. Or the game testing department reported that the game has various flashback problems on many low-end machines, and the developer is looking for an optimization solution
