Three dimensional image processing program, three dimensional image processing method, and video game device

Abstract

A three dimensional image processing program, a three dimensional image processing method, and a video game device are provided that can render a large number of objects. A graphics data generating processor computes the post-movement position coordinates of objects in a virtual three dimensional space, modifies the post-movement position coordinates of objects calculated thereby such that the position coordinates are kept inside a display area in which the objects are displayed, and a rendering processor renders the objects inside the display area.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a three dimensional image processing program, a three dimensional image processing method, and a video game device for displaying a plurality of objects that move inside a virtual three dimensional space. BACKGROUND ART [0002] A variety of video games that display objects such as characters and the like in a virtual three dimensional space that is produced in a monitor screen have grown popular in recent years. Many of these video games have sports-related themes such as skiing, surfing, ice skating, snowboarding, and the like. In order to satisfy the desires of users, video games having these types of sports themes must, to the greatest degree possible, duplicate the unique characteristics of each sport and provide the user with the feeling that they are actually participating in it. For example, a video game having a skiing or snowboarding theme should allow the user to feel as if he or she is competing in a snowfall. [0003]F...
