Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of virtual interaction, and in particular, to a virtual scene display method, a virtual scene display apparatus, a computer readable storage medium and an electronic device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Virtual scenes break through the limitations of the real world and are widely used in learning, life and work. Virtual scenes cannot be fully displayed in one interface and need to be switched to enter different virtual scenes. When switching, a smaller scene is switched to a larger scene, for example, a picture of a single virtual building is switched to a picture of a whole virtual city.

[0003] The current solution is to process scenes of different sizes according to height and display the scene at a certain height when the lens reaches the height. However, the scene needs to be preprocessed and layered, resulting in low efficiency and unnatural connection and low fluency when switching scenes.

[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background section is only used to strengthen the understanding of the background of the present disclosure, and therefore can include information that does not constitute prior art known to those of ordinary skill in the art.

[0066] In an optional implementation, various cloud applications can run under the cloud interaction system, for example, cloud games. Taking cloud games as an example, cloud games refer to a game mode based on cloud computing. In the running mode of cloud games, the running subject of the game program and the presentation subject of the game picture are separated, and the storage and running of the control method of the game interface are completed on the cloud game server. The client device is used for receiving and sending data and presenting the game picture. For example, the client device can be a display device close to the user side with data transmission function, such as a mobile terminal, a television, a computer, a palm computer, etc. However, the cloud game server in the cloud end performs information processing. When playing the game, the player operates the client device to send operation instructions to the cloud game server, the cloud game server runs the game according to the operation instructions, encodes and compresses the game picture and other data, returns the data to the client device through the network, and finally decodes and outputs the game picture through the client device.

[0067] In an optional implementation, taking games as an example, the local terminal device stores a game program and is used for presenting a game picture. The local terminal device is used for interacting with the player through a graphical user interface, that is, the conventional game program is downloaded and installed on the terminal device and is run. The way in which the local terminal device provides the graphical user interface to the player can include various ways, for example, the graphical user interface can be rendered and displayed on the display screen of the terminal, or the graphical user interface can be provided to the player through holographic projection. For example, the local terminal device can include a display screen and a processor, the display screen is used for presenting a graphical user interface including a game picture, and the processor is used for running the game, generating the graphical user interface, and controlling the display of the graphical user interface on the display screen.

For example, the terminal device can implement the steps shown in Figure 2

[0072] The present disclosure can be applied to virtual map applications, games, and the like.

[0073] The present example embodiment provides a virtual scene display method, which refers to Figure 2 The present example embodiment provides a virtual scene display method, which refers to

[0074] In step S210, a scene picture of a first view is displayed in the graphical user interface, the first view being a view of observing the entire virtual star scene through a lens.

[0075] In step S220, in response to a first operation, a scene picture of a second view is displayed by switching from the scene picture of the first view, the second view being a view of observing the entire first virtual terrain scene through a lens.

[0076] In step S230, a scene picture of a third view is displayed by switching from the scene picture of the second view, the third view being a view of observing the first virtual terrain scene through a lens based on the virtual character.

[0077] The present example embodiment provides a virtual scene display method, which refers to Figure 2 ​The virtual scene display method shown can display a scene picture of a first perspective in a graphical user interface; in response to a first operation, control switching display from the scene picture of the first perspective to a scene picture of a second perspective; control switching display from the scene picture of the second perspective to a scene picture of a third perspective. By changing different perspectives by moving a lens to switch different virtual scenes, the embodiment of the present disclosure avoids the need for preprocessing and layering different scenes, improving the efficiency of scene switching; on the other hand, by switching perspectives by the lens, the embodiment of the present disclosure improves the fluency of switching different scenes; on the other hand, by setting a star model and a virtual terrain scene, the embodiment of the present disclosure can simulate real map switching, improving the intuitiveness and interaction efficiency of scene switching.

[0078] Next, the above steps of the present example embodiment are described in more detail.

[0079] In step S210, a scene picture of a first perspective is displayed in the graphical user interface, the first perspective being a perspective of observing the entire virtual star scene through a lens.

[0080] The virtual star scene is a display of the entire virtual scene, and the virtual star scene can display different virtual terrain scenes, which are more specific scenes relative to the star scene. For example, the virtual terrain scene can be a virtual city scene or a virtual mountain scene, etc., and the virtual terrain scene is a scene in which a virtual character controlled by a user performs activities. For example, the virtual star scene can be as shown in FIG. 1. Figure 3 As shown, it is a spherical model.

[0081] The virtual lens observes the entire virtual star scene, which determines a position of a lens, and a three-dimensional scene is projected and calculated at the position to display the three-dimensional virtual scene in two dimensions on the graphical user interface to form a virtual lens or camera shooting. When the entire virtual star scene needs to be displayed comprehensively, the position of the lens needs to be at a position far from the star, and the three-dimensional star scene is projected and calculated at the position to obtain a star scene picture corresponding to the lens position.

[0082] In step S220, in response to a first operation, a scene picture of a second perspective is displayed by switching display from a scene picture of a first perspective, the second perspective being a perspective of observing the entire first virtual terrain scene through a lens.

[0083] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first operation can be a scroll wheel operation of a mouse, a key operation on a keyboard, or a double-click operation or a double-finger open operation applied to a touchable display screen of a mobile terminal, and the present disclosure does not limit the manner of the first operation. The entire first virtual terrain scene can refer to a virtual scene obtained by overlooking the virtual scene from the sky. For example, it can be a virtual city scene capable of fully displaying the picture of the entire city building and street, or a virtual mountain scene capable of fully displaying the picture of each peak.

[0084] Switching the scene picture from the first perspective to the scene picture from the second perspective can be completed through a preset scene animation. For example, a transition animation can be generated through part of the scene picture from the first perspective and part of the scene picture from the second perspective to link the switching from the first perspective to the second perspective.

[0085] It can be understood that, since the virtual terrain scene is not infinite, there is an undeveloped edge. Therefore, when switching to the second perspective, a high fog can be added to the edge of the virtual terrain scene to simulate the real cloud effect at a high altitude and shield the edge of the terrain scene.

[0086] In step S230, the scene picture from the second perspective is switched to the scene picture from a third perspective, and the third perspective is a perspective of the virtual character observing the first virtual terrain scene through a lens.

[0087] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the perspective of the virtual character observing the first virtual terrain scene through the lens can be a first-person perspective or a third-person perspective of the virtual character. The first-person perspective can be to place the lens on the head or shoulder of the virtual character to shoot the virtual terrain scene, and in the first-person perspective, the virtual character itself is generally not displayed, but the limbs or body of the virtual character can be displayed as the lens rotates; the third-person perspective can be to place the lens above the back of the virtual character, and the third-person perspective can shoot the upper body or the whole body of the virtual character.

[0088] In the entire virtual planet scene, a plurality of different virtual terrain scenes can be included, and the virtual character controlled by the user through the terminal device can only be in one virtual terrain scene. When the scene is switched, the virtual terrain scene to be switched to can not be a different position from the virtual terrain scene of the virtual character.

[0089] Based on this, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, an implementation manner of a virtual scene display method is also provided. Before the step of controlling the switching of the scene picture from the first perspective to the scene picture from the second perspective, the method further includes:

[0090] acquire a target position in the virtual star scene of the first operation indication, the target position being in a second virtual terrain scene;

[0091] calculate a rotation amount of the virtual star scene according to a current position of the virtual character in the first virtual terrain scene and the target position in the second virtual terrain scene;

[0092] control the virtual star scene to rotate based on the rotation amount.

[0093] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a position of an operation indication is acquired in response to a first operation. As mentioned above, the position can be a click point of a mouse on a graphical user interface, or a touch point of a user on a touch screen of a mobile terminal, and the like. A point on a star model that is clicked is determined according to the click or touch position, and then a corresponding position of the clicked point in a two-dimensional plane map is calculated based on a mapping relationship between the virtual star map and the plane map by the following formula:

[0094] Pos B′ = UV x Size 地形 + Pos 地形

[0095] According to the corresponding position in the two-dimensional plane map calculated above, a point on the star model corresponding to the position is calculated by a ray tool, that is, a target position in the virtual star scene of the first operation indication. Specifically, the two-dimensional plane map can be overlaid above the star model by using a ray tool in Unreal Engine (UE), the corresponding position in the two-dimensional plane map is taken as a starting point of a ray, and a direction from the starting point of the ray to a center of the star model is taken as a direction of the ray, so as to make the ray. The ray will intersect with the spherical surface, and an intersection point is the target position in the virtual star scene indicated.

[0096] Based on the determined target point (B) and the current point (C), a coordinate system as shown in FIG. 3 is established at the center of the virtual star model, a vector Figure 4 is first acquired, and a vector is also acquired. The two vectors are then normalized.

[0097] Then, the cross product of the two vectors is calculated by the following formula: and to obtain a rotation axis

[0098]

[0099] The included angle between the two vectors is calculated by the following formula:

[0100]

[0101] Finally, according to the calculation result, the axis The rotation angle θ.

[0102] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, an implementation manner of a virtual scene display method is also provided. A first virtual terrain scene in which a current position is located is placed on the top of a virtual star scene, and the first virtual terrain scene is tangent to the top of the virtual star scene. The scene that a user wants to switch can be always displayed on the top of the star scene. Therefore, before the star scene is rotated, the first virtual terrain scene is on the top of the star scene, and when the star scene is rotated, a second virtual terrain scene in which a target position is located is rotated to the top of the star scene, and after the star scene is rotated, the second virtual terrain scene is on the top of the star scene.

[0103] In the use scenario of scene switching, a user will switch scenes multiple times. For example, the scene can be switched from A to B first, and then from B to C again, in this process, the scene needs to be switched from the star scene to the virtual terrain scene, and then from the virtual terrain scene to the star scene, so that the user can have a comprehensive understanding of the scene.

[0104] Based on this, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, an implementation manner of a virtual scene display method is also provided. After the step of controlling the scene picture of the second view angle to switch to the third view angle, the method further includes:

[0105] displaying the scene picture of the third view angle in the graphical user interface;

[0106] in response to a second operation, controlling the scene picture to switch from the third view angle to the scene picture of the second view angle for display;

[0107] controlling the scene picture to switch from the second view angle to the scene picture of the first view angle for display.

[0108] The steps of the embodiments of the present disclosure are the switching process opposite to the foregoing steps, and the embodiments of the present disclosure will not be described herein.

[0109] In real time, the embodiments of the present disclosure can switch back to the first view angle after the first view angle is gradually switched to the third view angle. The intuitive degree of scene display and the interaction efficiency can be improved when the user interacts with different scenes.

[0110] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, an implementation manner of a virtual scene display method is also provided.

[0111] The step of controlling the scene picture to switch from the second view angle to the scene picture of the third view angle includes:

[0112] obtaining the position of the last frame of the scene picture of the second view angle corresponding to the lens, and obtaining the current position of the virtual role.

[0113] According to the position of the corresponding lens and the current position, a switching lens picture required when switching display between the two positions is calculated;

[0114] The switching lens picture is updated and displayed to control switching display from the scene picture of the second view angle to the scene picture of the third view angle.

[0115] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, in the process of switching from the second view angle to the third view angle, since the switching of the view angle is a process of continuous change of the lens, when the second view angle is switched to the third view angle, the position of the corresponding lens of the last frame of the scene picture of the second view angle is acquired first, and the current position of the virtual character is determined. Since the switching of the view angle is a process of change of the lens position, based on the first and last positions of the view angle switching process, when the second view angle is switched to the third view angle, the position of the lens is continuously updated, and the updated intermediate scene picture is acquired according to the continuously updated lens position.

[0116] It can be understood that according to different requirements, the number of times of updating the scene picture when switching can be different. For example, if the number of times of updating the scene picture is 50, then in the process of switching, 50 lens positions need to be acquired, and the corresponding scene pictures are determined according to the positions to constitute the process of switching from the second view angle to the third view angle.

[0117] In summary, the flow of the above-mentioned embodiments is described. As shown in Figure 5A When switching from the virtual star scene to the virtual terrain scene where the virtual character is located, the target point is determined and the star is rotated to the target point according to the operation of clicking the star first, then the scene animation is played to switch the first view angle to the second view angle, and finally the third view angle based on the virtual character observing the virtual terrain scene is switched from the second view angle.
