[0032] The names of the messages or information exchanged between multiple devices in the embodiments of the present disclosure are only for illustrative purposes and are not used to limit the scope of these messages or information.

[0033] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a game sound effect processing method proposed according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 1 shown, the game sound effect processing method proposed by the present disclosure can be executed by an electronic device, specifically by a game sound effect processing device, which can be implemented in a software and / or hardware manner and configured in the electronic device. As Figure 1 shown, the game sound effect processing method may include the following steps.

[0034] In step 110, obtain the game sound effects to be output.

[0035] Here, the game sound effects to be output can be interface sound effects for interface operations, such as item dragging, selection, menu popping up and retracting, etc., can be character sound effects related to game characters, such as footsteps, etc., can also be environmental sound effects of the game environment, such as wind sounds, bird chirping sounds, waterfall sounds, etc., and can even be skill sound effects of game skills, such as attack sounds, skill hit sound effects, action sound effects, etc., and can further be background sound effects of different game scenes, such as different maps corresponding to different styles of music, etc.

[0036] Among them, the game sound effects to be output can be obtained through the game engine. For example, when the game engine captures an event where the user releases a game skill, determine the corresponding skill sound effect, and at the same time when triggering the release of the game skill, output the corresponding game sound effect through the sound engine.

[0037] In step 120, according to the parameter configuration information of the terminal, determine whether it is necessary to call a target sound effector to process the game sound effect when the terminal outputs the game sound effect to be output.

[0038] Here, the parameter configuration information of the terminal can refer to the model information of the terminal. When the model information of the terminal is a preset signal, determine to call the target sound effector to process the game sound effect to be output. Among them, for different models of terminals, there are different sound effect requirements. When some models of terminals output game sound effects, it is necessary to process the game sound effects through the target sound effector, while when some models of terminals output game sound effects, it is not necessary to process the game sound effects through the target sound effector. For example, for terminal model A, when it outputs this game sound effect, it is not necessary to call the target sound effector to process this game sound effect. For terminal model B, when it outputs this game sound effect, it is necessary to call the target sound effector to process this game sound effect.

[0039] It should be understood that the preset model can be stored in the terminal, and it can also be updated at any time. For example, game developers can release a game update package to update the preset signals stored on the terminal through the game update package to meet different requirements.

[0040] In some other embodiments, the parameter configuration information of the terminal may refer to the hardware parameter information, software parameter information, etc. of the terminal. According to the parameter configuration information of the terminal, the data processing capability of the terminal is determined. When the data processing capability of the terminal is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, it is determined that the terminal needs to call the target sound effector to process the game sound effect when outputting the to-be-output game sound effect. When the data processing capability of the terminal is less than the preset threshold, it is determined that the terminal does not need to call the target sound effector to process the game sound effect when outputting the to-be-output game sound effect. Among them, in this embodiment, in fact, it is determined whether to enable the target sound effector to process the game sound effect according to the data processing capability of the terminal. When the data processing capability of the terminal is insufficient, the target sound effector is disabled to ensure the computing resources of other modules of the game.

[0041] It should be understood that for different types of game sound effects, the sound effectors they need to use may be different. For example, the sound effector can include a reverb effector, a compression equalizer effector, and so on. Therefore, the target sound effector refers to the sound effector used to process the game sound effect corresponding to the type of the to-be-output game sound effect. Among them, the sound effector refers to a software functional module that processes the effects of game sounds. It can be integrated in the game installation package and be called by the game engine to process the game sound effects.

[0042] In step 130, when it is determined that the terminal needs to call the target sound effector to process the game sound effect, the target sound effector is called to process the to-be-output game sound effect while maintaining the original loudness of the to-be-output game sound effect unchanged, and the processed game sound effect is obtained.

[0043] Here, when it is determined according to the parameter configuration information of the terminal that the terminal needs to call the target sound effector to process the to-be-output game sound effect when outputting the to-be-output game sound effect, the target sound effector is called by the sound engine to perform effect processing on the to-be-output game sound effect. Among them, the target sound effector can perform effect processing on the to-be-output game sound effect while maintaining the original loudness of the to-be-output game sound effect unchanged, and the processed game sound effect is obtained. For example, for a reverb effector, the reverb effector can perform reverb processing on the to-be-output game sound effect while maintaining the original loudness of the to-be-output game sound effect unchanged, and the reverberated game sound effect is obtained. It is worth noting that the reverberated game sound effect is consistent with the to-be-output game sound effect in loudness.

[0044] Among them, loudness is also known as volume. Loudness describes the loudness of a sound and represents the subjective perception of sound by the human ear. Its unit of measurement is sone. It is defined that the loudness of a pure tone with a frequency of 1000 Hz and a sound pressure level of 40 dB is 1 sone. Loudness is not only related to sound intensity but also to frequency. Different frequencies of sound have different loudness levels. The loudness of sound is restricted by sound intensity. Generally, when the sound intensity level increases, the loudness level also increases.

[0045] As an example, when the target sound effector processes the game sound effects to be output, it collects the loudness information of the game sound effects to be output, and during the process of processing the game sound effects, by adjusting the parameter settings, it maintains the loudness information of the game sound effects unchanged, so that the loudness information of the game sound effects after being processed by the target sound effector is consistent with the loudness information of the game sound effects to be output.

[0046] As another example, the target sound effector is a pre - debugged sound effector that can keep the loudness information of the game sound effects unchanged. Among them, the game sound effects to be output are used as the input of the target sound effector, and the loudness of the game sound effects output by the target sound effector is consistent with the loudness of the game sound effects to be output.

[0047] In step 140, output the processed game sound effects.

[0048] Here, after obtaining the processed game sound effects, the processed game sound effects can be output through the audio output device of the terminal. It should be understood that when the same volume gain parameter is used, the loudness of the processed game sound effects output by the audio output devices of different terminals should be kept consistent.

[0049] It is worth noting that if the terminal does not need to call the target sound effector to process the game sound effects to be output, it directly outputs the game sound effects to be output through the audio output device of the terminal. Among them, under the same volume gain parameter, regardless of whether the game sound effects to be output are processed by the target sound effector, the loudness of the finally output game sound effects is kept consistent. For example, terminal A needs to process the game sound effects to be output through the target sound effector, and the loudness of the processed game sound effects output by terminal A is 40 dB. Terminal B does not need to process the game sound effects to be output through the target sound effector, and the loudness of the game sound effects to be output directly by terminal B is also 40 dB.

[0050] For games running on different types of terminals, some types of terminals do not need to turn on the sound effector, while some types of terminals need to turn on the sound effector. Since the sound effector will change the loudness of the game sound effect during the process of processing the game sound effect, the loudness of the same game sound effect output by different types of terminals is inconsistent, which extremely damages the fairness of the game and the game experience. For example, in a shooting game, players generally need to judge the position of opponents through footsteps and vehicle sounds. If the loudness of the same footsteps output on different terminals is uneven, some players will not be able to judge the position of opponents in time, which not only affects the fairness of the game, but also brings a very bad experience to players.

[0051] Therefore, when it is determined that the terminal needs to call the target sound effector to process the game sound effect to be output, the target sound effector is called to process the game sound effect to be output while maintaining the original loudness of the game sound effect to be output, and the processed game sound effect is obtained and output. Regardless of whether the terminal turns on the sound effector, the loudness of the same game sound effect output by all terminals under the same volume gain parameter is consistent, so that in the player's auditory perception, the loudness of the same game sound effect is consistent, which can not only maintain the fairness of the game, but also improve the player's game experience.

[0052] Figure 2 It is a flowchart for constructing a target sound effector proposed according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 2 shown, the target sound effector can be obtained through the following steps.

[0053] In step 210, the target sound with a preset spectral characteristic of the first loudness is used as the input of the initial sound effector, and the second loudness of the sound output by the initial sound effector is obtained.

[0054] Here, the initial sound effector can be any sound effector deployed in the game, such as a reverberation effector, a compression equalization effector, etc. When constructing the target sound effector, steps 210 to 230 need to be executed for all sound effectors deployed in the game, so that the loudness of the game sound effect input to the target sound effector is consistent with the loudness of the game sound effect output by the target sound effector.

[0055] As an example, the target sound with preset spectral characteristics can be pink noise. Pink noise has equal intensity in each octave and is a noise between white noise and red noise. It should be understood that since pink noise conforms to the response curve of human ear sensitivity, pink noise is a noise that conforms to human ear hearing. For the human ear, even though the energy of pink noise is inconsistent in each frequency band, the pink noise in each frequency band is stable in terms of hearing. Since the game sound effects in the game are basically consistent with pink noise in terms of frequency band distribution. By using pink noise as the test resource of the initial sound effector to adjust the volume parameter of the initial sound effector, the adjusted sound effector is suitable for processing game sound effects.

[0056] In some embodiments, the target sound can be selected according to the type of the initial sound effector. For example, for different types of initial sound effectors, target sounds with different spectral characteristics can be corresponding to perform targeted training on different types of initial sound effectors. In some other embodiments, different target sounds are also used for different types of sound audiences. For example, for different types of sound audiences, target sounds with preset spectral characteristics set for that type of sound audience can be adopted.

[0057] By using the target sound with preset spectral characteristics and the first loudness as the input of the initial sound effector, the initial sound effector performs preset effect processing on the target sound and outputs a sound, and checks the second loudness of the sound output by the initial sound effector.

[0058] In step 220, according to the difference between the second loudness and the first loudness, the parameters of the initial sound effector are adjusted so that the second loudness of the sound output by the adjusted sound effector is equal to the first loudness of the target sound input to the adjusted sound effector.

[0059] Here, the difference between the second loudness and the first loudness is calculated, and the volume-related parameters of the initial sound effector are adjusted according to this difference so that the second loudness of the sound output by the adjusted sound effector is equal to the first loudness of the target sound input to the adjusted sound effector.

[0060] For example, if 40 dB of pink noise is used as the input of the initial sound effector and the measured second loudness of the sound output by the initial sound effector is 50 dB, then the volume-related parameters of the initial sound effector are adjusted according to the 10 dB difference to obtain the adjusted sound effector. Using 40 dB of pink noise as the input of the adjusted sound effector, the loudness of the sound output by the adjusted sound effector is 40 dB, and the parameter adjustment of the initial sound effector is completed.

[0061] In step 230, determine the adjusted sound effector as the target sound effector.

[0062] Here, after completing the parameter adjustment of the initial sound effector, the adjusted sound effector is used as the target sound effector.

[0063] Among them, the target sound effector can be a program module of the game installation package. The target sound effector is installed on the terminal along with the game installation package. When it needs to be called by the game engine, the corresponding target sound effector is called to perform sound effect processing on the game sound effects to be output.

[0064] Thus, by adjusting the parameters of the sound effector with the target sound of the preset spectral characteristics, the loudness of the sound input to the target sound effector subsequently can be equal to the loudness of the sound output by the target sound effector. Regardless of whether the terminal needs to call the target sound effector to perform sound effect processing on the game sound effects to be output, the loudness of the same game sound effect output on different types of terminals can be kept consistent.

[0065] Figure 3 Yes Figure 1 It is a specific process schematic diagram of step 140 shown. As Figure 3 shown, in step 140, outputting the processed game sound effects may include the following steps.

[0066] In step 141, obtain the loudness correction parameter of the terminal, where the loudness correction parameter is used to make the loudness of the same game sound effect output by the audio output device of the terminal and the audio output devices of other types of terminals consistent under the same volume gain parameter.

[0067] Here, the loudness correction parameter is a coefficient obtained by testing different types of terminals and is used to adjust the loudness of the game sound effects output by the terminal. The loudness correction parameter is used to make the loudness of the same game sound effect output by the audio output device of the terminal and the audio output devices of other types of terminals consistent under the same volume gain parameter.

[0068] It should be understood that for different terminals, their corresponding loudness correction parameters are different. For example, for terminal A, its loudness correction parameter is 1.1, and for terminal B, its loudness correction parameter is 0.9.

[0069] In some embodiments, the third loudness of the same target game sound effect output by the audio output devices of different types of terminals under the same volume gain parameter can be obtained, and taking the third loudness of the target game sound effect output by a target terminal among the different types of terminals as the reference loudness, the loudness correction parameter corresponding to each type of terminal can be determined according to the loudness difference between the third loudness of the target game sound effect output by other terminals and the reference loudness.

[0070] Among them, the volume gain parameter refers to the volume setting parameter of the terminal, such as 50%, 100%, 150%, etc. For different terminals, due to different models of audio output devices or the aging of audio output devices, when the same game sound effect is output under the same volume gain parameter, different terminals may have different loudness.

[0071] By obtaining the third loudness of the same target game sound effect output by the audio output devices of different types of terminals under the same volume gain parameter, then taking the third loudness output by a target terminal as the reference loudness, and according to the loudness difference between the third loudness of the target game sound effect output by other terminals and the reference loudness, the loudness correction parameter corresponding to each terminal can be determined.

[0072] Among them, the target terminal can be any one terminal selected from different types of terminals. The loudness correction parameter corresponding to the target terminal is 1, that is, the target terminal can correct the loudness of the output sound without using the loudness correction parameter. For each terminal except the target terminal, its corresponding loudness correction parameter is calculated based on the difference between its third loudness and the reference loudness. It should be understood that when each terminal outputs the same game sound effect under the same volume gain parameter, the loudness after being corrected by the corresponding loudness correction parameter is equal to the reference loudness.

[0073] In some other embodiments, the third loudness of the same target game sound effect output by the audio output devices of different types of terminals under the same volume gain parameter can be obtained, and the third loudness of all terminals can be clustered, and the loudness corresponding to the cluster center is determined as the reference loudness, and then according to the loudness difference between the third loudness of the target game sound effect output by different types of terminals and the reference loudness, the loudness correction parameter corresponding to each type of terminal can be determined.

[0074] In step 142, according to the loudness correction parameter, the loudness of the processed game sound effect is adjusted to obtain the adjusted game sound effect.

[0075] Here, when obtaining the loudness correction parameter of the terminal, the loudness of the processed game sound effect is adjusted according to the loudness correction parameter to obtain the adjusted game sound effect. Adjusting the loudness of the processed game sound effect may be to change parameters such as the sound intensity of the processed game sound effect that do not affect the original effect of the game sound effect.

[0076] It should be noted that the adjusted game sound effect only adjusts the loudness of the processed game sound effect. After the adjusted game sound effect is output by the audio output device, the loudness is the same in different terminals with the same volume gain parameter.

[0077] In step 143, output the adjusted game sound effect.

[0078] Here, the adjusted game sound effect can be output through the audio output device of the terminal. It should be understood that the loudness of the adjusted game sound effect output by the audio output devices of different terminals should be the same under the same volume gain parameter.

[0079] Thus, by processing the game sound effect through the loudness correction parameter, it is possible to avoid the problem that the loudness of the same game sound effect output on different terminals is inconsistent due to different hardware of different terminals, and it can make the loudness of the same game sound effect consistent in the auditory perception of players, which can not only maintain the fairness of the game, but also improve the game experience of players.

[0080] Figure 4 is a flowchart of a game sound effect processing method provided by another exemplary embodiment. As Figure 4 shown, another embodiment of the present disclosure proposes a game sound effect processing method, and the game sound effect processing method includes the following steps.

[0081] In step 410, during the process of outputting the processed game sound effect, if a preset operation on the volume key of the terminal is obtained, record the fourth loudness of the adjusted game sound effect output by the terminal based on the preset operation.

[0082] Here, the volume key of the terminal may refer to the volume increase key or the volume decrease key of the terminal, and the volume key may be a physical key or a virtual key. The preset operation on the volume key may be operations such as clicking or long pressing on the volume key.

[0083] During the process of outputting the processed game sound effects or the adjusted game sound effects, if a preset operation of the player on the volume button of the terminal is obtained, it indicates that the player is not satisfied with the loudness of the currently output game sound effects. For example, when the terminal outputs the sound of footsteps with a volume gain coefficient of 80%, if a click operation of the player on the volume increase button is detected, it means that the player believes that the volume of the current sound of footsteps is not loud enough. Therefore, the fourth loudness of the game sound effects adjusted by clicking the volume increase button output by the terminal can be recorded. Among them, the fourth loudness represents the loudness of the game sound effects that the player hopes to output.

[0084] In step 420, when the next game sound effects of the same type as the processed game sound effects are output, the game sound effects are output according to the recorded fourth loudness.

[0085] Here, when the terminal outputs the next game sound effects of the same type as the processed game sound effects, the terminal outputs the game sound effects according to the recorded fourth loudness. For example, the recorded fourth loudness of the "sound of footsteps" is 40 dB. When the terminal outputs the "sound of footsteps" next time, the "sound of footsteps" is output with a loudness of 40 dB.

[0086] Among them, outputting the game sound effects according to the recorded fourth loudness can be to adjust the volume gain parameter of the audio output device of the terminal, or to adjust the parameter of the game sound effects regarding loudness, so that the loudness of the finally output game sound effects reaches the fourth loudness.

[0087] Thus, by recording the loudness requirements of the player for each type of game sound effects, game sound effects that meet the loudness requirements of the player can be obtained without any volume adjustment operation by the player. It can enable the player to focus on the game operation during the game process to improve the user's game experience.
