[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in combination with the embodiments below. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] At present, there may be many obstacles in real-life games, which prevent players from going to the same offline game space to play games, resulting in a poor gaming experience for players. Based on this, the present invention provides an offline game control method, device, server, and computer-readable storage medium, which can enable offline games to be played in different locations, thereby significantly improving the gaming experience of players.

[0030] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, firstly, an offline game control method disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention is described in detail. Figure 1 The flowchart of an offline game control method shown in FIG. 1 mainly includes the following steps S102 to S108:

[0031] Step S102, obtaining game monitoring image frames of multiple offline game spaces. Each offline game space includes game mechanisms and players, the number of game mechanisms is multiple, and the number of players is at least one. The mechanism configuration of each offline game space is consistent, and the mechanism configuration may include mechanism layout, mechanism triggering conditions, and mechanism triggering sequence, etc. In actual applications, multiple offline game spaces with the same theme can be pre-configured, and the scene layout of each offline game space is as consistent as possible. When players cannot go to the same offline game space to play games, players can go to different offline game spaces to play together. In one embodiment, a monitoring device (such as a monitoring camera) with the same monitoring angle can be set at the same position of each offline game space, so that the game monitoring image frame is collected by the monitoring device, and the content displayed by the game monitoring image frame at least includes the player.

[0032] Step S104, based on the game monitoring image frame, generate a virtual character animation corresponding to the player in each offline game space. The virtual character animation can be used to reflect the player's actions, image, and voice. In one embodiment, the player's player data, such as player action data, player image data, and player voice data, can be extracted from the game monitoring image frame, so as to generate a virtual image animation matching the player according to the above player data.

[0033] Step S106, responding to the interactive operation of the game mechanism in at least one offline game space, and determining the current game process based on the mechanism configuration. Exemplarily, assuming that the game mechanism is a password lock, if the player inputs a password for the password lock, the password input by the player is verified to be correct according to the mechanism trigger condition corresponding to the password lock. If it is correct, the game process will be updated, and if it is wrong, the game process will remain unchanged. Optionally, the game process can be used to characterize the trigger state of the game mechanism. For example, when the password is correct, it can be determined that the game mechanism is in a triggered state, and the next game mechanism corresponding to the game mechanism is set to a trigger ready state. When the password is wrong, it can be determined that the game mechanism is still in a trigger ready state.

[0034] Step S108, synchronize the game for each offline game space according to the virtual character animation and the current game process. In one embodiment, the virtual character animation corresponding to the player can be holographically projected to the target projection space corresponding to the player, and the target projection space can be the remaining offline game spaces except the offline game space where the player is located, so that players in different places can have the visual and auditory interaction effect of playing the same secret room together. In another embodiment, the game mechanism in each offline game space can also be controlled according to the current game process, even if the players are not in the same secret room scene, they can still cooperate with each other to complete the mechanism linkage.

[0035] The offline game control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention can generate a virtual character animation corresponding to each player according to the game monitoring image frames of multiple offline game spaces, and at the same time determine the game process according to the interactive operations on the game mechanism, so as to achieve game synchronization according to the virtual character animation and the game process, which can not only satisfy the player's real-life experience, but also enable players in different places to experience the fun of playing offline games together, and can also achieve interactive game effects in multiple offline game spaces, significantly improving the player's game experience.

[0036] In one embodiment, each offline game space is configured with a controller, a monitoring device and a projection device, the monitoring device and the projection device are both connected to the controller, and the controller is communicatively connected to the server, wherein the monitoring device is used to collect game monitoring image frames, the projection device is used to project virtual character animations throughout the system, the controller is used to send game monitoring image frames to the server, and receive virtual character animations sent by the server, and the server is used to execute the above-mentioned offline game control method.

[0037] For the aforementioned step S104, the embodiment of the present invention provides an implementation method for generating a virtual character animation corresponding to each player based on a game monitoring image frame, specifically: (1) extracting player data of each player from the game monitoring image frame, the player data including player action data, player image data and player voice data. In practical applications, the player action data and player image data can be extracted from the game monitoring image frame. The player action data can include player body movements and can also include player facial movements. The player image data can include player appearance materials, such as clothing, appearance, hairstyle, etc. In addition, for player voice data, a communication device can also be allocated to the player, so that the player can conduct real-time voice communication based on the communication device; (2) generating a skeletal animation corresponding to each player based on the player action data. In one implementation method, firstly determine the skeletal node corresponding to the player, and then control the movement of each skeletal node according to the player's body movements to obtain the desired skeletal animation; (3) generating a virtual character animation corresponding to each player based on the skeletal animation, the player image data and the player voice data. In one implementation method, the player appearance material can be inserted into the skeletal animation. Optionally, voice communication between players can be achieved through a communication device, and voice playback equipment can be arranged in an offline game scene to play the player's voice data. In actual applications, since the shooting angles and installation positions of the monitoring equipment in offline game spaces are the same, the character angles and sense of space in multiple offline game spaces can be kept consistent.

[0038] For the aforementioned step S106, the embodiment of the present invention provides an implementation method for responding to an interactive operation on a game mechanism in at least one offline game space and determining the game process based on the mechanism configuration, see the following steps 1 to 3:

[0039] Step 1, responding to an interactive operation on a game mechanism in at least one offline game space, determining a first target game mechanism, and judging whether the interactive operation satisfies the mechanism triggering condition corresponding to the first target game mechanism. In practical applications, the game mechanism affected by the interactive operation is determined as the first target game mechanism. For example, assuming that the first target game mechanism is a password lock, if a player inputs a password for the password lock, verify whether the password input by the player is correct according to the mechanism triggering condition corresponding to the password lock. If the password is correct, it is determined that the interactive operation satisfies the mechanism triggering condition of the password lock.

[0040] Step 2, if yes, determine the next game mechanism corresponding to the first target game mechanism according to the mechanism triggering sequence, and determine that the game process is the first process, the first process is that the first target game mechanism is in the triggered state, and the next game mechanism is in the triggering ready state. In actual applications, the game mechanisms in the offline game space usually have linkage, and the sequence of each game mechanism (that is, the mechanism triggering sequence) is designed. For example, when the first target game mechanism x is triggered, the next game mechanism y will enter the ready triggering state, so it is equivalent to that the player in any offline game space unlocks the first target game mechanism x, then the other offline game spaces will automatically unlock the first target game mechanism x, and the next game mechanism y in all offline game spaces will enter the ready triggering state.

[0041] Step 3, if not, determine that the game process is the second process, and the second process is that the first target game mechanism is in a trigger preparation state. In actual application, if the player has not successfully unlocked the first target game mechanism, the game remains unchanged, and the player still needs to find clues to successfully unlock the first target game mechanism.

[0042] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, when executing the above-mentioned step S108, the virtual character animation can be synchronized to each offline game space; and the game mechanism in each offline game space can be controlled according to the first process or the second process. Specifically, see the following steps a to e:

[0043] Step a: For each player, the remaining offline game spaces except the offline game space where the player is located are used as the target projection space corresponding to the player. For example, assuming that multiple players are playing remote synchronous offline games in three offline game spaces, including offline game space 1, offline game space 2, and offline game space 3, taking the player in offline game space 1 as an example, offline game space 2 and offline game space 3 can be used as the target projection space corresponding to the player.

[0044] Step b, holographically projecting the virtual character animation corresponding to the player to the target projection space to synchronize the virtual character animation corresponding to the player. Exemplarily, the virtual character animation corresponding to the player in offline game space 1 can be holographically projected to offline game space 2 and offline game space 3. Similarly, the virtual character animation corresponding to the player in offline game space 2 can be holographically projected to offline game space 1 and offline game space 3, and the virtual character animation corresponding to the player in offline game space 3 can be holographically projected to offline game space 1 and offline game space 2.

[0045] Step c: if the game process is the first process, the offline game spaces other than the offline game space to which the first target game mechanism belongs are used as controlled game spaces. For example, taking the game mechanism in offline game space 1 as an example, offline game spaces 2 and 3 are used as controlled game spaces.

[0046] Step d, from the game organs in the controlled game space, determine the second target game organ that matches the first target game organ, and the game organ that matches the next game organ. For example, assuming the first target game organ x1 in the offline game space 1, the second target game organ x2 in the offline game space 2 and the second target game organ x3 in the offline game space 3 are determined; assuming the next game organ y1 corresponding to the first target game organ x1, the game organ y2 in the offline game space 2 and the game organ y3 in the offline game space 3 are determined.

[0047] Step e, unlock the second target game mechanism, and set the game mechanism that matches the next game mechanism to a trigger ready state. Exemplarily, the second target game mechanism x2 and the second target game mechanism x3 can be unlocked, and game mechanisms y2 and y3 can be set to a trigger ready state.

[0048] In practical applications, the process of players playing offline games can also be broadcast live. Game video streams can be synthesized according to the offline game space and the virtual character animations corresponding to each player, and the game can be broadcast live based on the game video streams. Optionally, the game video stream includes a virtual game video stream and / or a pseudo-real game video stream. For ease of understanding, the embodiments of the present invention provide implementation methods for broadcasting games for virtual game video streams and pseudo-real game video streams, respectively, as shown in the following methods 1 to 2:

[0049] Method 1: Virtual game video stream: A virtual game space can be established based on the offline game space, and the virtual game space and the virtual character animation corresponding to each player can be synthesized to obtain a virtual game video stream, and then the game can be live broadcast based on the virtual game video stream. In one embodiment, the scene layout of the offline game space can also be extracted from the game monitoring image frame, and the corresponding virtual game space can be generated based on the scene layout. By synthesizing the virtual game space and the virtual character animation in the push stream, the virtual character animations of players in multiple offline game spaces can be synthesized in the same virtual game space, so that the virtual game video stream can be presented to the audience in the live broadcast room.

[0050] Method 2: Pseudo-real game video stream: The offline game space can be imaged to obtain a pseudo-real game video stream, the content displayed by the pseudo-real game video stream includes the offline game space, the players in the offline game space, and the virtual character animations corresponding to the other players except the player, and the game is broadcast live based on the pseudo-real game video stream. In one embodiment, the pseudo-real game video stream can be directly collected by a live broadcast camera in any offline game space, and the live broadcast can be realized by pushing the stream through the camera.

[0051] To facilitate understanding of the above embodiments, the embodiments of the present invention take the example of players playing synchronous offline games in two offline game spaces, including a first offline game space (e.g., room A) and a second offline game space (e.g., room B). In specific implementation, the character images (i.e., the aforementioned game monitoring image frames) in the surveillance videos of room A and room B can be obtained respectively, and the player data in the character images can be identified to generate corresponding virtual character animations. In actual applications, the virtual character animations corresponding to the players in the first game space can be holographically projected to the second game space, and the virtual character animations corresponding to the players in the second game space can be holographically projected to the first game space. That is, the virtual character animations corresponding to the players in room A are holographically projected to room B, such as Figure 2 A schematic diagram of an offline game space is shown in FIG. Figure 2 It is shown that the secret room A includes a real player C, a real mechanism x1, a real mechanism y1 and a virtual player F'; at the same time, the virtual character animation corresponding to the player in the secret room B is holographically projected to the secret room A, such as Figure 3 Another offline game space diagram is shown in Figure 1. Figure 3 It is shown that the secret room B includes a virtual player C', a real mechanism x2, a real mechanism y2 and a real player F, wherein the mechanism x1 and the mechanism x2 are the same game mechanism, and the mechanism y1 and the mechanism y2 are the same game mechanism.

[0052] In addition, if the game process of the first game space is the first process, the fourth target game mechanism that matches the third target game mechanism in the first game space and the game mechanism that matches the next game mechanism corresponding to the third target game mechanism are determined from the game mechanisms in the second game space, the fourth target game mechanism is unlocked, and the game mechanism that matches the next game mechanism corresponding to the fourth target game mechanism is set to a trigger ready state. Exemplarily, the fourth target game mechanism x4 that matches the third target game mechanism x3 in the secret room A and the game mechanism y4 that matches the next game mechanism y3 are determined from the secret room B, the fourth target game mechanism x4 is unlocked, and both the game mechanism y3 and the game mechanism y4 are set to a trigger ready state.

[0053] Similarly, if the game process of the second game space is the first process, the sixth target game mechanism that matches the fifth target game mechanism in the second game space and the game mechanism that matches the next game mechanism corresponding to the fifth target game mechanism are determined from the game mechanisms in the first game space, the sixth target game mechanism is unlocked, and the game mechanism that matches the next game mechanism corresponding to the fifth target game mechanism is set to a trigger ready state. Exemplarily, the sixth target game mechanism x6 that matches the fifth target game mechanism x5 in the secret room B and the game mechanism y6 that matches the next game mechanism y5 are determined from the secret room A, the sixth target game mechanism x6 is unlocked, and both the game mechanism y5 and the game mechanism y6 are set to a trigger ready state.

[0054] Furthermore, the embodiment of the present invention also provides Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a virtual game space is shown, which includes a virtual player C', a virtual machine level x', a virtual machine level y' and a virtual player F'. By hosting the virtual players and the virtual players in the same virtual game space and presenting the screen to the audience in the live broadcast room, players in different locations can be synthesized into the same live broadcast screen during the game.

[0055] To sum up, the offline game control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention can realize the linkage of the secret room mechanism, and can also identify the behavior of characters in the secret room in a different location to generate a holographic image and project it into the live stream, thereby solving the problem that users who cannot play in the same secret room space at the same time due to objective reasons can experience the simultaneous play experience, and the audience can also see the scene content of the secret room played by players in different locations.
