However, these methods are resource-intensive and inefficient at generating water reflections of the sky. Furthermore, in certain game genres, such as strategy games, a sky model is often absent, making it impossible to achieve the same effect of the sky reflected in the water through reflections.

[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] In games, water reflections are often achieved through reflections of skyboxes, such as screen-space reflections or light probes, to realistically reflect the sky. However, in certain game genres, such as simulation games (SLGs), the virtual camera's view is always top-down, meaning the camera never sees the sky. Therefore, there are no skyboxes to represent the sky in the game scene. In other words, SLGs, aside from basic lighting, do not have a sky. Consequently, reflecting water using skyboxes cannot be used to generate water reflections. Furthermore, methods like screen-space reflections and light probes are computationally expensive.

[0018] Based on this, the present invention provides a water body model rendering method, apparatus and electronic device, which can be applied to various virtual scenes that require water body rendering.

[0019] See Figure 1 First, a rendering method for a water body model provided by an embodiment of the present invention will be introduced. The method includes the following steps:

[0020] Step S102: Obtain the texture of the specified element.

[0021] The specified elements can be common elements in the sky such as the sun, moon, stars, and clouds, or any element that needs to be reflected on the water's surface. For example, in some game scenes, if there is a giant monster eye in the sky, the specified element can be a pre-drawn monster eye; or if there are falling leaves in the sky, the specified element can include falling leaves.

[0022] A texture (map) typically refers to an image created by artists in software such as Photoshop, and comes in many formats such as DDS, TGA, BMP, PNG, and JPG. In 3D graphics rendering, textures can be combined with shaders to form materials, which instruct the graphics processing unit (GPU) on how to render the image, ultimately determining the color of the 3D model's surface.

[0023] Textures are images used in materials. They are mapped onto the surface to which the material is applied, and then applied directly to places such as diffuse maps, or the texture pixel values ​​are used as masks in the material, or for other calculations. Since the texture of the specified element only displays the specified element, it cannot be directly used as a texture for rendering the water model to show the effect of the specified element being reflected in the water model in a partial or tiled manner. Further processing of the texture of the specified element is required; see the description of the implementation method in the next step for details.

[0024] Step S104: Generate a reflection effect texture for the water model based on the texture of the specified element.

[0025] To achieve the effect of a specific element being reflected in water within a water model, the texture of that element needs to be sampled based on its position within the water model. This maps the display parameters from the element's texture to the various positions on the water model, serving as their color parameters. These color parameters are stored using a reflection map, typically a texture map. The coordinates of each pixel in the texture map correspond to the positions on the water model. During rendering, the pixel values ​​can be read from the texture map and used as the color parameters for the corresponding model positions.

[0026] When sampling textures of specified elements, it is necessary to consider the reflection effect of the specified elements in the water model. For example, the reflections of the sun and moon are usually displayed in a local area of ​​the water model, while the reflections of stars, clouds, etc. are usually displayed in multiple locations of the water model, and the reflections of fallen leaves and geese can move from one area of ​​the water model to another at a set speed.

[0027] For specific elements whose reflections appear in a localized area of ​​a water model, texture mapping can be sampled using screen-space related coordinates. Specifically, the coordinate parameters of each element's position within the screen-space coordinate system can be determined first, generating texture map coordinates. The display size of the specified element can be controlled by scaling these coordinates, and its position can be controlled by offsetting them. Noise can also be added to create a perturbation effect in the reflection of the specified element.

[0028] For specific elements whose reflections are displayed at multiple locations within a water model, texture sampling can be performed using world coordinates. Specifically, the coordinate parameters of each model position within the world coordinate system can be determined first, and corresponding texture map coordinates can be generated. Furthermore, the display size of the specified element can be controlled by scaling the texture map coordinates, and noise can be added to create a perturbation effect in the reflection of the specified element.

[0029] For a specific element whose reflection moves within a water model, you can consider adding a time-varying parameter to the texture map coordinates so that the reflection of the specified element moves across the surface of the water model over time during the rendering process.

[0030] Step S106: Render the water model based on the reflection effect map to obtain the rendered water model; the rendered water model has the display effect of specified elements being reflected in the water.

[0031] During the rendering process, the color parameters saved in the reflection effect texture can be overlaid with the basic color parameters corresponding to the water model. The water model is then rendered based on the overlaid color parameters to obtain the display effect of a specified element reflected in the water. During the overlay process, the color parameters of the reflection effect and the basic color parameters can be overlaid according to a preset ratio to achieve the preset reflection effect.

[0032] The above-described method for rendering a water model involves: obtaining textures of specified elements; generating reflection textures for the water model based on these textures; rendering the water model using these reflection textures to obtain the rendered water model; and achieving the effect of the specified elements being reflected in the water. This method generates a reflection of the sky in the water even when a sky model is absent in the virtual scene, and it boasts high rendering efficiency.

[0033] The following embodiments provide an implementation method for generating a reflection effect texture of a water body model based on a texture of a specified element.

[0034] In generating the reflection texture of a water model, it is usually necessary to perform texture sampling on the texture of a specified element to obtain the texture sampling data corresponding to the specified element; then, based on the texture sampling data corresponding to the specified element, the reflection texture of the water model is generated. Generally speaking, when a specified element corresponds to different display effects, the sampling coordinates for texture sampling of its texture are usually different.

[0035] When a specified element corresponds to a tiled display effect, meaning multiple reflections of the specified element are displayed on the surface of the water model, texture sampling parameters need to be generated based on the world coordinate parameters of each model position on the surface of the water model. Typically, the world coordinate parameters need to be converted into texture map coordinates. Then, based on parameters such as the display size and perturbation effect of the specified element, the texture map coordinates are scaled and noise is added to generate texture sampling parameters. Finally, texture sampling is performed on the texture map of the specified element based on the texture sampling parameters to obtain the texture sampling data corresponding to the specified element.

[0036] When a specified element corresponds to a local display effect, meaning the specified element is only displayed in a certain area of ​​the water model, it is necessary to generate texture sampling parameters based on the screen space coordinates of each model position on the surface of the water model. Generally, the obtained screen space coordinates need to be converted into texture map coordinates. Then, based on the display size, display position, and other parameters of the specified element, the texture map coordinates are scaled and position coordinate parameters are added to generate texture sampling parameters. Furthermore, texture sampling is performed on the texture map of the specified element based on the texture sampling parameters to obtain the texture sampling data corresponding to the specified element.

[0037] Since reflections in water often differ from the original object's appearance, a perturbation effect needs to be displayed. Therefore, noise needs to be added to the texture sampling parameters to achieve this effect. Specifically, texture sampling parameters can be generated based on the position parameters of each model location on the surface of the water model and the corresponding normal parameters. The normal parameters can be considered as noise to achieve the perturbation effect. Further texture sampling is then performed on the texture map of a specified element based on these parameters to obtain the texture sampling data for that element.

[0038] When multiple specified elements are included, after obtaining the texture sampling data of each specified element, the texture sampling data corresponding to the multiple specified elements can be superimposed based on the texture coordinates corresponding to each model position on the surface of the water model, thereby obtaining the superimposed texture sampling data, and generating the reflection effect texture of the water model based on the superimposed texture sampling data.

[0039] The following embodiments provide an implementation method for rendering water models based on reflection effect maps.

[0040] In practical implementation, the color parameters saved in the reflection effect map can also be used as the self-illumination color parameters of the water model, and then the water model can be rendered without relying on the self-illumination color parameters. This rendering effect is similar to the effect of rendering by overlaying the color parameters saved in the reflection effect map with the basic color parameters corresponding to the water model, both of which can achieve the display effect of the specified element being reflected in the water.

[0041] This invention also provides another method for rendering water models, which... Figure 1 This method is implemented based on the method shown. It is mainly applied to the reflection process of water in game scenes, using elements such as the moon, stars, and clouds to enable lakes and other water bodies in the scene to achieve a good effect of water surface reflecting the sky with low performance consumption.

[0042] This method primarily aims to depict the effect of objects such as the moon, clouds, and stars in the sky reflected in water. It is achieved through the following steps:

[0043] 1. Sample the moon texture using the texture map coordinates (UV) of the screen coordinate system so that the moon is located in a corner of the water surface displayed on the screen.

[0044] Specifically, ScreenPosition can be used to obtain the UV values ​​of the screen space location, denoted as SPUV. The SPUV is then calculated as follows to finally obtain the UV values ​​MoonUV for the sampled moon image:

[0045] MoonUV = SPUV * R1 + R2 + Noise

[0046] R1 is a manually configured two-dimensional vector that can be used to control the size of the moon; R2 is a manually configured two-dimensional vector that can be used to control the position of the moon; Noise is the normal value of the water body, which can create a certain disturbance to the moon and enhance the feeling of water ripples.

[0047] Furthermore, MoonTexture is obtained by sampling the moon's texture using MoonUV.

[0048] 2. Sample the texture maps of clouds and stars using the texture map coordinates corresponding to the world coordinate system, so that clouds and stars cover the entire water surface.

[0049] Convert the world coordinates of the current rendering point in the water model to meters, and then take the G and B channels of the converted world coordinates to form a two-dimensional vector, denoted as WPUV.

[0050] The following calculations are performed on WPUV to obtain the final UV value CloudUV used for sampling the cloud texture:

[0051] CloudUV=WPUV*R3+Time*(SU1,SV1)+Noise

[0052] R3 is a manually configured parameter; SU1 and SV1 are the cloud's movement speed, respectively; and Noise is the water normal value, which causes a certain disturbance to the cloud.

[0053] CloudTexture is obtained by sampling cloud textures using CloudUV.

[0054] Repeat the process of generating texture map coordinates corresponding to the world coordinate system. By modifying parameters such as R3, a new UV value can be obtained, denoted as StarUV. StarUV is then used to sample the texture of the starry sky to obtain StarTexure.

[0055] The above method uses the normal value of water waves to perturb the coordinates of the texture map used for sampling, so that objects such as the moon and starry sky have a feeling of water wave perturbation.

[0056] 3. The sampling results of the texture are used as the output of the emissive color parameter of the water model to obtain a water surface with a reflective effect.

[0057] Specifically, the MoonTexture, CloudTexture, and StarTexture obtained in the above process can be added together, and the result can be used as the EmissiveColor of the water material to obtain a water surface with a reflective effect.

[0058] This method uses texture sampling to create the effect of water reflecting the sky. Compared to screen-space reflection and light probes, this approach has significantly lower performance overhead. Furthermore, this reflection method does not require a skybox in the scene, making it suitable for games with a fixed top-down perspective, such as strategy games.

[0059] For the above method embodiments, see Figure 2 The embodiment of the present invention shown provides a rendering apparatus for a water body model, the apparatus comprising:
