The method comprises: in response to a selection operation on a user face image, generating a character face pinching image corresponding to the user face image; previewing and displaying the character face pinching image, and storing the character face pinching image in a game database, so that the character face pinching image is displayed through a game client after the user logs in the game client and calls the game database through the game client.

[0005] In a second aspect, the present application provides a device for making a virtual character in a game, which is applied to a game web end. The device comprises: a face pinching image generation module, configured to generate a character face pinching image corresponding to a user face image in response to a selection operation on the user face image; and a preview display and data storage module, configured to preview and display the character face pinching image, and store the character face pinching image in a game database, so that the character face pinching image is displayed through a game client after the user logs in the game client and calls the game database through the game client.

[0006] In a third aspect, the present application provides an electronic device, comprising a processor, a storage medium and a bus. The storage medium stores machine readable instructions executable by the processor. When the electronic device is running, the processor communicates with the storage medium through the bus. The processor executes the machine readable instructions to perform the steps of the method for making a virtual character in a game as described in any one of the preceding embodiments.

[0007] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides a computer readable storage medium, and the computer readable storage medium stores a computer program. When the computer program is executed by a processor, the steps of the method for making a virtual character in a game are performed.

[0008] The method for making a virtual character in a game provided by the embodiments of the present application is applied to a game web end, and the corresponding method is implemented through a web management end. When the scheme is implemented, firstly, a character face pinching image corresponding to a user face image is generated in response to a selection operation on the user face image, and then the character face pinching image can be previewed and displayed to preview the face pinching effect through the web management end. The character face pinching image can also be stored in a game database. When a user logs in a game client, the character face pinching image can be displayed through the game client after the game database is called. In this way, the user does not need to log in the game client to upload the image and then wait for the generation of the face pinching effect.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present application, but only represents selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0018] The method for making a virtual character in a game in an embodiment of the present disclosure can run a web end, which is a web management end, for managing information of all users. For example, for a large-scale game scene such as a meta-universe system (such as a virtual 3D conference), the web end can be used to manage information of all participants joining the game scene, and all participants' avatar pictures needing face pinching are uploaded to the web backend through the web end, and the face pinching intermediate data and face pinching preview pictures are generated by the backend in batches.

[0019] Further, after the character face pinching image and face pinching intermediate data are pre-generated through the web end and stored in the game database, the method for making a virtual character in a game can be further applied to a local terminal device or a server. When the method for making a virtual character in a game runs on a server, the method can be implemented and executed based on a cloud interaction system, wherein the cloud interaction system includes a server and a client device.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, various cloud applications can be 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 a game program and the presentation subject of a game picture are separated, and the storage and running of a method for making a virtual character in a game are completed on a cloud game server. A client device is used for receiving and sending data and presenting a game picture. For example, the client device can be a display device close to a user side and having a 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 a game, a player operates the client device to send an operation instruction to the cloud game server, the cloud game server runs the game according to the operation instruction, encodes and compresses game picture data, returns the data to the client device through a network, and finally, the client device decodes and outputs the game picture.

[0021] In an optional embodiment, taking games as an example, a local terminal device stores a game program and is used for presenting a game picture. The local terminal device is used for interacting with a player through a graphical user interface, that is, a conventional game program is downloaded and installed on an electronic 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 a display screen of the terminal, or the graphical user interface is provided to the player through holographic projection. For example, the local terminal device can include a display screen used for presenting a graphical user interface including a game picture and a processor used for running the game, generating the graphical user interface, and controlling the display of the graphical user interface on the display screen.

[0022] In a possible embodiment, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for making a virtual character in a game, Figure 1 A flowchart of a method for making a virtual character in a game provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1, in a first aspect, the present application provides a method for making a virtual character in a game, the method is applied to a game web end; the method mainly includes the following steps:

[0023] In step S102, a character face-sculpting image corresponding to the user face image is generated in response to a selection operation on the user face image.

[0024] The user face image is a user image containing a complete face, which is a photo prototype for face-sculpting and contains all features of the face, so that the effect of face-sculpting can be guaranteed.

[0025] The selection operation for the user face image can include a single selection operation for a single user face image, or a batch selection operation for multiple user face images. The selection operation can be performed by checking the corresponding user face image. In an embodiment, a user face image can be selected for pinch face processing to generate a character pinch face image corresponding to the user face image. Multiple user face images can also be selected in batches for pinch face processing to generate a character pinch face image corresponding to each user face image.

[0026] In an embodiment, when performing batch pinch face processing, the avatar pictures that need to be pinched can be placed in a folder, and the picture names are named with user account numbers. Then the folder is uploaded to the web backend, and the backend generates pinch face data and pinch preview pictures in batches.

[0027] In step S104, the character pinch face image is previewed and displayed, and the character pinch face image is stored in the game database, so that when the user logs in to the game client, the character pinch face image is displayed through the game client calling the game database.

[0028] In an embodiment, the generated character pinch face image can be directly previewed and displayed through the web end, so that the pinch effect generated individually or in batches can be previewed on the web end.

[0029] In addition, after pinch face processing, the generated character pinch face image can be stored in the game database. When storing, the user account number, user name, etc. can be used for naming. When the user logs in to the game client, the corresponding character pinch face image stored in the game database can be called through the user account number, user name, etc. and directly displayed on the game client, without the need to wait for the user to upload the photo and then perform a series of operations such as pinch face processing, thereby saving a lot of time.

[0030] The method for making a virtual character in a game provided by the embodiments of the present application can generate a character pinch face image corresponding to a user face image in response to a selection operation for the user face image, and then preview and display the character pinch face image to preview the pinch effect through the web management end. The character pinch face image can also be stored in the game database, and when the user logs in to the game client, the character pinch face image can be displayed through the game client calling the game database. This method does not require the user to log in to the game client and upload the image, and then wait for the pinch effect to be generated. Instead, the pinch effect generated by the web end in advance can be directly displayed after logging in to the game client, thereby improving the generation speed of the character pinch face image and improving the user experience of the user in the metaverse and other large scene games.

[0031] For ease of understanding, the method for making a virtual character in a game provided by the embodiments of the present application is described in detail below.

[0032] First, the scheme for executing the pre-kneading face effect generation applied to the web end is described.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, to improve the processing efficiency of the web end for face images, the user face image corresponding character kneading face image is generated in response to the selection operation of the user face image, and the user face image is batch processed. In specific implementation, in response to the batch selection operation of multiple user face images, the character kneading face image corresponding to each user face image and the kneading intermediate data corresponding to each character kneading face image can be generated.

[0034] The kneading intermediate data is data for recording the face information of the game user, such as, for a virtual 3D conference in a meta universe scene, the kneading intermediate data can be json data recording the face information of the conference participants, and the information for representation can include: gender, avatar, clothing, etc.

[0035] Further, while generating the character kneading face data, the kneading intermediate data during the execution of the kneading operation is also generated. In order to facilitate the convenience and speed of subsequent kneading processing, after generating the kneading intermediate data, the kneading intermediate data can be stored in the game database, so that after the user logs in to the game client, the character kneading face image can be generated by calling the kneading intermediate data through the game client.

[0036] When the kneading intermediate data is stored in the game database, the user only needs to log in to the client, and then the client automatically acquires the kneading data of the user to automatically generate the kneading avatar. Compared with the previous method of needing the user to log in to the client, uploading the avatar to generate the kneading data and then synthesizing the avatar, the human face can be quickly synthesized after the user logs in to the game.

[0037] In an embodiment, for a 3D virtual conference scene, the organizer can also collect the avatars of the conference participants, and name the avatars with user accounts, then click the upload folder button to batch generate kneading data and generate a preview image, as shown in Figure 2 .

[0038] To improve the diversity of the kneading effect in the game, in a feasible embodiment, the corresponding kneading processing area can be determined according to the user's selection demand. In specific implementation, in response to the selection operation of the kneading range, batch kneading operation is performed on multiple user face images based on the target kneading range, and multiple character kneading images corresponding to the user face images including partial kneading effects are generated.

[0039] The face pinching range at least includes one or more of a hairstyle region, a face shape region, or a costume region.

[0040] In an example, when the game scene is a virtual 3D conference application scene, the organizer can limit the face pinching selection range of the participants, such as limiting the audience to select hair, face shape, costume, etc. within a certain range, so that the face pinched image of the character after face pinching processing can be the effect corresponding to the face pinching range. In this way, the area range of face pinching can be more flexible, and different area ranges of face pinching processing can be performed according to players with different identity attributes, thereby improving the flexibility of face pinching application and improving the game experience of users and the immersive experience of the conference.

[0041] Further, after generating the character face pinching image according to the user face image, a face pinching effect generated by a real photo can be generated, that is, a face processing result. In order to more completely obtain the overall image of the virtual character in the scene, a character costume library can also be defined in advance to provide users with rich material selection. In an optional implementation, a custom character costume library can be generated in response to uploading of costume data. The costume data at least includes hairstyle data, face shape data, and costume data.

[0042] In an implementation, the costume library can be customized to allow the activity organizer to more freely increase the selectable range of hairstyles, face shapes, and costumes, while limiting the selectable range of hairstyles, face shapes, and costumes of the character, facilitating the organizer to manage the activity characters. For example, the costume library includes a plurality of hairstyles, a plurality of face shapes, and a plurality of costumes, and the user can select according to the needs, or can make corresponding selection for players with different identities.

[0043] After generating the above-mentioned custom character costume library, the user can select costume materials in the custom character costume library to generate a corresponding character model according to user needs and user preferences. In an optional implementation, in response to selection of costume data in the custom character costume library, a character model corresponding to the user face image is generated based on the costume data and the user face image.

[0044] For ease of understanding, referring to Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the activity organizer can add participants individually, select costumes, hairstyles, and upload user avatars, and click the preview button to generate a preview picture.

[0045] Further, in order to improve the game experience of users in the game, corresponding display can be performed for different virtual character identity types. In an implementation, in response to a selection operation for a character identity type, a character face pinching image corresponding to at least one selected character identity type can be displayed in batches; wherein the character identity type is used to represent the identity attribute of the virtual character in the game.

[0046] In addition, different dressing materials can be displayed for players with different role identities. In an optional embodiment, the role identity type can be determined first in response to the material selection operation for the custom role dressing library, and then the target material selection range corresponding to the role identity type can be determined based on the role identity type, so as to select the dressing material in the target material selection range.

[0047] Referring to Figure 4 As shown, the organizer can limit the clothing selection range of participants with different identities, such as lecturer, host, audience, organizer, exhibitor, etc. The identity information can also be divided into male or female, so that the corresponding player identity can be selected to select the dressing material.

[0048] In addition, the organizer can also add custom clothes. Referring to Figure 5 As shown, the player custom clothes operation is performed in response to the selection operation of gender, model ID, clothes ID and image (i.e. user face image), and the corresponding role model is generated.

[0049] Further, in addition to clothes, hairstyle and face shape data can also be uploaded. In actual application, selection can be made according to actual needs, which is only an example and is not limited.

[0050] The above description is the implementation method of the web end. In another embodiment, when the virtual role making method is applied to the game client, the following method can be used to implement it:

[0051] Method 1: The user logs in the game client, and the pre-generated role face shaping image is displayed.

[0052] Method 2: The user logs in the game client and performs face shaping control by clicking the face shaping control. When the face shaping operation is performed in the game client, the face shaping processing is performed according to the pre-generated face shaping intermediate data in the web end and the face shaping intermediate data in the game database.

[0053] ​In summary, through the method of making a virtual character in the game, the scheme of batch face pinching and character dressing can be realized, the face pinching preview picture can be viewed on the web side, and the intermediate data of non-face pinching is stored in the database, that is, the face pinching preprocessing operation is performed, the user can view the face pinching effect on the web side, and because the database stores the intermediate data, the user can quickly combine the human face when logging into the active scene, successfully pinches the face on the web side and views the preview picture, reduces the load of the game server, the web side quickly batches the face pinching, and generates the face pinching intermediate data, which is convenient for the user to log in to the game end to combine the human face. The organizer or administrator of the activity can limit the use of the clothes of the participating characters, and can also upload custom clothes to increase the selection range of the clothes library, so that the activity organizer can more freely increase the selection range of the clothes, and can also limit the selection range of the clothes of the characters, which is convenient for the organizer to manage the activity characters.
