[0002] In related technologies, user-generated content editors typically require users to edit game scenes before they can view and test the feasibility of their edits. This interaction method can disrupt the design and testing of game scenes, increasing the user's operational burden. Furthermore, the fact that users can only test after the entire game scene has been edited may prevent them from identifying design flaws in the early stages, thus increasing the cost of later modifications. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this disclosure is to provide a game editing method, device, and electronic device. After the scene components in the game editing scene are edited, not only will the editing screen of the game editing scene be displayed, but also the virtual objects will be controlled to interact with the scene components. At the same time, the test screen of the game editing scene corresponding to the game test scene will be displayed. During the editing process, the game editing scene can be tested in real time without interrupting the editing and design process of the game editing scene, thereby reducing the user's operational burden and enabling problems to be discovered as early as possible, reducing the cost of later modifications.

[0008] The embodiments disclosed herein bring the following beneficial effects:

[0009] This disclosure provides a game editing method, apparatus, and electronic device. It captures a first scene image of the game editing scene in real-time from a first-person perspective. In response to the completion of a first editing operation on a target scene component, it controls a virtual object to interact with the target scene component. During this interaction, a second-person perspective image of the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component is overlaid on the first scene image. In this method, after editing the scene components in the game editing scene, it controls the virtual object to interact with the scene components, displaying a test image of the corresponding game test scene on the first scene image. This allows for real-time testing of the game editing scene without interrupting the editing and design process, reducing the user's operational burden and enabling early detection of problems, thus reducing later modification costs.

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0019] In related technologies, user-generated content editors typically require users to edit game scenes before they can view and test the rationality of their edited game scenes. This interaction method may interrupt the design and testing of game scenes, thereby increasing the user's operational burden. Furthermore, the fact that users can only test after the entire game scene has been edited may prevent them from identifying design problems in the early stages, thus increasing the cost of later modifications. Based on this, the present disclosure provides a game editing method, apparatus, and electronic device, which can be applied to devices such as mobile phones, computers, laptops, computers, and tablets.

[0020] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the game editing method can run on a local terminal device or a server. When the game editing method runs on a server, it can be implemented and executed based on a cloud interaction system, which includes a server and client devices.

[0021] In an optional implementation, various cloud applications, such as cloud gaming, can run under the cloud interaction system. Taking cloud gaming as an example, cloud gaming refers to a gaming method based on cloud computing. In the cloud gaming operating mode, the game program and the game screen presentation are separated. The storage and execution of game editing methods are completed on the cloud gaming server. The client device is used for data reception, transmission, and game screen presentation. For example, the client device can be a display device with data transmission capabilities located close to the user, such as a mobile terminal, television, computer, or PDA; however, the information processing is performed by the cloud gaming server in the cloud. When playing the game, the player operates the client device to send operation commands to the cloud gaming server. The cloud gaming server runs the game according to the operation commands, encodes and compresses the game screen and other data, returns it to the client device via the network, and finally, the client device decodes and outputs the game screen.

[0022] In an optional implementation, taking a game as an example, the local terminal device stores the game program and is used to display the game screen. The local terminal device is used to interact with the player through a graphical user interface (GUI), i.e., conventionally by downloading, installing, and running the game program via an electronic device. The local terminal device can provide the GUI to the player in various ways, such as rendering it on the terminal's display screen or providing it to the player via holographic projection. For example, the local terminal device can include a display screen for displaying the GUI, which includes game screens, and a processor for running the game, generating the GUI, and controlling the display of the GUI on the display screen.

[0023] In one possible implementation, this invention provides a game editing method that provides a graphical user interface through a terminal device, wherein the terminal device can be either the aforementioned local terminal device or a client device in the aforementioned cloud interaction system.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0025] Step S102: Display the first scene image formed by real-time shooting of the game editing scene from a first-person perspective in the graphical user interface, wherein the game editing scene includes scene components and virtual objects controlled by the terminal device;

[0026] Typically, during game editing scene runtime, this virtual object is a movable object controlled by the player, such as a virtual character or virtual vehicle. The aforementioned scene components can be road components, land tile components, equipment components, building components, etc., within the game editing scene. The aforementioned first-person perspective can be the first scene view (also called the editing screen) obtained by capturing the game editing scene with a pre-set first virtual camera according to the first camera parameters.

[0027] Optionally, the first-person perspective can be either a free perspective or a God's-eye view. In the free perspective, the shooting target can be changed in real time according to the player's editing object. For example, when the player is editing the first scene component, the first-person perspective is the perspective bound to the first scene component. If the player is editing the second scene component, the first-person perspective is the perspective bound to the second scene component.

[0028] Players can edit various scene components within the game's editing scene. This includes deleting or adding individual components, combining multiple components, and creating virtual roads or mazes. Typically, the edited scene components have interactive capabilities with virtual objects; for example, virtual vehicles can drive on virtual roads, and virtual characters can navigate mazes.

[0029] Step S104: In response to the first editing operation on the target scene component, the target scene component is presented in the game editing scene according to the component parameters determined by the first editing operation, wherein the target scene component is at least a portion of the scene components;

[0030] The first editing operation mentioned above can be a click, a swipe, or a confirmation operation. Optionally, the player can select a target scene component from the component list, drag it into the game editing scene, and adjust its position and posture through swiping or other operations. The player can also adjust component parameters using the provided parameter editing controls, such as the target scene component's size, shape, color, and whether it has interactive functions. Finally, based on the component parameters determined by the last editing operation, the target scene component corresponding to those parameters is displayed in the game editing scene. Optionally, the player's first editing operation on the target scene component will also be displayed in the first scene screen.

[0031] Step S106: In response to the completion of the first editing operation, control the virtual object to interact with the target scene component, and during the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, overlay the image formed by the virtual object and the target scene component captured by the second perspective on the first scene screen, so as to prompt the interactive performance of the target scene component when used in the game test scene and / or game running scene during the editing of the target scene component, wherein the second perspective is determined based on the virtual object.

[0032] The completion of the first editing operation can be a confirmation operation for editing the target scene component. For example, after completing the first editing operation on the target scene component, you can click the provided confirmation control. At this time, the system will automatically control the virtual object to interact with the target scene component, such as controlling the virtual vehicle to drive on the target scene component, or controlling the virtual object to move on the target scene component. While the system automatically controls the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, a test screen will be overlaid on the first scene screen, showing the interaction process between the virtual object and the target scene component.

[0033] Optionally, the first scene screen and the test screen can be displayed in different areas of the graphical user interface. For example, the first scene screen is displayed in a first display area, and the test screen is displayed in a second display area, and the first and second display areas do not overlap. An example is... Figure 2 The graphical user interface shown.

[0034] Optionally, the test screen can also be displayed on top of the first scene screen, and the size of the test screen is smaller than the size of the first scene screen.

[0035] The aforementioned second perspective can be a perspective bound to a virtual object. Optionally, a second virtual camera pre-set in the game editing scene can be used to capture test footage of the interaction between the virtual object and the target game component, using the second camera parameters. Optionally, the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component can be controlled within the game editing scene. Alternatively, a second virtual camera pre-set in a game test scene corresponding to the game editing scene can be used to capture test footage of the interaction between the virtual object and the target game component, using the second camera parameters. The game test scene can be created by copying from the game editing scene. Optionally, the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component can be controlled within the game test scene.

[0036] Optionally, the first scene image mentioned above is obtained by capturing the game editing scene using a first virtual camera set in the game editing scene, and the test image mentioned above is obtained by capturing the game running scene using a second virtual camera set in the game test scene.

[0037] By displaying a test screen in real time during the editing process, players can be prompted about the interactive performance of the target scene component when used in the game test scene and / or the game running scene. By viewing the test screen, players can understand whether the currently edited target scene component meets the player's preset interactive effects. For example, if a virtual object cannot move forward due to a slope that is too high when moving in the target scene component, players can see in real time through the test screen that the target scene component is not edited properly and can directly adjust the slope of the target scene component after exiting the test screen.

[0038] This disclosure provides a game editing method, which displays a first scene image formed by real-time shooting of a game editing scene from a first perspective in a graphical user interface. The game editing scene includes scene components and virtual objects controlled by a terminal device. In response to a first editing operation on a target scene component, the target scene component is presented in the game editing scene according to component parameters determined by the first editing operation. The target scene component is at least a portion of the scene components. In response to the completion of the first editing operation, the virtual object is controlled to interact with the target scene component. During the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, an image formed by shooting the virtual object and the target scene component from a second perspective is superimposed on the first scene image to indicate the interactive performance of the target scene component when used in a game test scene and / or game running scene during the editing process. The second perspective is determined based on the virtual object. In this method, after the scene components in the game editing scene are edited, the virtual object is controlled to interact with the scene components. The test screen of the game test scene corresponding to the game editing scene is displayed on the first scene screen. The game editing scene is tested in real time during the editing process without interrupting the editing and design process of the game editing scene. This reduces the user's operational burden and allows problems to be discovered as early as possible, reducing the cost of later modifications.

[0039] One possible implementation of the above steps, which involve overlaying a view of the virtual object and the target scene component onto the first scene screen during the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, is as follows:

[0040] During the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene components, a floating window is displayed on the first scene screen. This floating window displays a view of the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene components taken from a second-person perspective. The size of the floating window is smaller than the size of the first scene screen. The view of the virtual object and the target scene components taken from the second-person perspective can serve as a test screen. For example, such as... Figure 3 As shown.

[0041] One possible implementation of the above steps for displaying the first scene image formed by real-time shooting of the game editing scene from a first-person perspective in the graphical user interface is as follows: using a first virtual camera pre-configured in the game editing scene, shooting the game editing scene based on the parameters of the first camera to obtain the first scene image, and displaying the first scene image in the graphical user interface.

[0042] The aforementioned first camera parameters are pre-configured. The first virtual camera, through these parameters, can transform the 3D game editing scene onto a 2D plane, thereby calculating the position of the scene content on the screen. This embodiment employs perspective projection, which ensures the editing screen conforms to the perspective relationship of near objects appearing larger and far objects smaller, and finally displays the editing screen in the graphical user interface.

[0043] The above-mentioned response, upon completion of the first editing operation, controls the virtual object to interact with the target scene component, and during the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, overlays the image formed by the virtual object and the target scene component captured from a second perspective onto the first scene screen. One possible implementation is as follows:

[0044] In response to the completion of the first editing operation, a game test scene identical to the game editing scene is created; the virtual object is controlled to interact with the target scene components in the game test scene; the game test scene is captured by a second virtual camera pre-configured in the game test scene based on the parameters of the second camera, and the test scene is superimposed and displayed on the first scene screen.

[0045] Optionally, the game editing scene can be copied to obtain the game test scene. Optionally, the scene parameters of the game editing scene can be obtained, and the game test scene can be created based on the scene parameters.

[0046] Similarly, the second camera parameters are pre-configured. The second virtual camera, through these parameters, can transform the 3D game test scene onto a 2D plane, thereby calculating the position of the scene content on the screen. This embodiment uses perspective projection, which ensures the running image conforms to the perspective relationship of near objects appearing larger and far objects smaller. Finally, the running image is displayed in the graphical user interface, specifically in a floating window. Since the floating window typically occupies only a small space on the screen and does not require high image precision, the scene model in the game test scene created based on the scene parameters of the game editing scene has one or more of the following attributes: the model precision of the scene model in the game test scene is lower than that of the scene model in the game editing scene; the precision of shadow calculation in the game test scene is lower than that of shadow calculation in the game editing scene; and the anti-aliasing function in the game test scene is disabled.

[0047] Optionally, in obtaining the scene parameters of the game editing scene and creating a game test scene based on the scene parameters, the above method may further include one or more of the following steps: reducing the model accuracy of the scene model in the game test scene; reducing the accuracy of shadow calculation in the game test scene; and disabling the anti-aliasing function of the game test scene.

[0048] Optionally, reduce the polygon count of the models in the game test scene, use models with a lower polygon count to build the game running scene, but keep the shape, size, and other attributes of the models the same as those in the game editing scene; or use lower precision shadow calculations in the game test scene; or turn off anti-aliasing to reduce the rendering overhead of the game test scene and ensure that the game can still meet performance requirements when additional game test scenes are created.

[0049] The above method also includes: responding to editing operations for the game editing scene, determining scene update parameters for the game editing scene; updating the game test scene based on the scene update parameters, and switching the running screen to the running screen of the updated game test scene.

[0050] When the parameters of the model or effects in the game editing scene are updated, the updated scene parameters are copied to the game test scene, thereby updating the game test scene. This allows the game test scene to synchronize with the game editing scene, enabling real-time preview and testing.

[0051] This floating window can reflect the design changes of the game editing scene in real time. That is, when the user is editing the game editing scene, the test screen in the floating window can be updated in real time, showing the running status of the latest designed game editing scene. Through this real-time preview method, the user can observe the actual game test of the game editing scene at the same time as designing the game editing scene, so as to determine whether the design of the game editing scene is reasonable and whether it needs to be adjusted.

[0052] The graphical user interface described above also includes a first control; the first control is used to control virtual objects in the game editing scene; the method further includes: in response to a test command, switching the first control to a second control; wherein the second control is used to control virtual objects in the screen formed by the virtual objects and the target scene components captured from a second perspective.

[0053] The shape, size, and display method of the first and second controls can be the same or different. Optionally, in response to a test command, the control function of the first control is updated, and the updated first control is used to control virtual objects in the game test scene. The test command can be generated by triggering an operation on the running control, triggering an operation on the test screen, or triggering a voice output operation on the voice control.

[0054] The step of switching the first control to the second control in response to a test instruction includes: switching the first control to the second control in response to a first trigger operation on the test control. For example, such as... Figure 3 As shown, clicking "Try it out" (corresponding to the test control mentioned above) will switch the first control to the second control.

[0055] After the step of switching the first control to the second control in response to the test command, the method further includes: responding to a touch operation on the second control and controlling the movement of the virtual object in the screen formed by the virtual object and the target scene components captured from the second perspective.

[0056] At this point, control switches to the floating window. The position of the virtual object in the game editing scene remains unchanged. In the game test scene, the virtual object is controlled according to the normal game operation method, so that the user can experience the game operation of the game editing scene in the real game operation.

[0057] The above method uses a "picture-in-picture" display effect. For games, this involves using multiple cameras to render one or more scenes. One main camera displays the game scene that fills the entire application window; the other cameras display their scenes as smaller windows within the window, allowing for simultaneous display of different scene content on the same screen. The core of this technology is multi-camera rendering. In games, the concept of a "camera" is essentially a projection matrix transformation, which transforms the 3D game scene onto a 2D plane, thereby calculating the position of the scene content on the screen. Perspective projection is generally used in games to ensure that the image conforms to the perspective relationship of objects appearing larger when closer and smaller when farther away. This technology greatly simplifies the complex process of repeatedly editing and testing scenes in traditional game editing, improving user experience and the efficiency of scene editing and design.

[0058] In response to the completion of the editing operation, after controlling the virtual object to interact with the target scene component, and superimposing the image formed by the virtual object and the target scene component captured from a second perspective onto the first scene screen during the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, the above method further includes:

[0059] In response to the second editing operation on the target scene component, cancel the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, and cancel the screen overlaid on the first scene screen.

[0060] The aforementioned second editing operation can be an editing operation on the target scene component after the test cancellation operation. Of course, the second editing operation on the target scene component can also be performed directly during the testing phase. It is understandable that if the player performs another editing operation on the target scene component during the test screen display, the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component will be canceled, thereby canceling the overlaid screen displayed in the first scene.

[0061] The above method also includes: in response to the interaction performance meeting preset conditions, displaying a first prompt message, the first prompt message being used to indicate that the editing of the target scene component is reasonable;

[0062] In response to the interaction performance not meeting preset conditions, a second prompt message is displayed. The first prompt message indicates that the editing of the target scene component is unreasonable, and provides the reason for the unreasonableness. The preset conditions include: uninterrupted interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component.

[0063] For example, if the target scene component is a virtual track and the virtual object is a virtual race car, the interactive performance may not meet the preset conditions. Common situations include: the virtual track has gaps and the gaps between them are too large, so the virtual race car cannot pass; or the virtual track has no gaps but the turning angle is set unreasonably, causing the virtual race car to be unable to turn; or the obstacles on the virtual track are too dense, causing the virtual race car to be unable to pass.

[0064] Corresponding to the above method embodiments, this disclosure provides a game editing device that provides a graphical user interface through a terminal device, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the device includes:

[0065] The first display module 41 is used to display a first scene image formed by real-time shooting of a game editing scene from a first-person perspective in a graphical user interface, wherein the game editing scene includes scene components and virtual objects controlled by the terminal device.

[0066] The component editing module 42 is used to respond to a first editing operation on a target scene component and to present the target scene component in the game editing scene according to the component parameters determined by the first editing operation, wherein the target scene component is at least a portion of the scene components;

[0067] The second display module 43 is used to respond to the completion of the first editing operation, control the virtual object to interact with the target scene component, and overlay the image formed by the virtual object and the target scene component captured by the second perspective on the first scene screen during the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component. This is used to prompt the interactive performance of the target scene component when used in the game test scene and / or game running scene during the editing of the target scene component. The second perspective is determined based on the virtual object.

[0086] The processor in the aforementioned electronic device, by executing machine-executable instructions, can perform the following operations in the aforementioned game editing method:

[0087] A first scene image, captured in real-time from a first-person perspective, is displayed in the graphical user interface. This game editing scene includes scene components and virtual objects controlled by the terminal device. In response to a first editing operation on a target scene component, the target scene component is presented in the game editing scene based on the component parameters determined by the first editing operation. The target scene component is at least a portion of the scene components. Upon completion of the first editing operation, the virtual object is controlled to interact with the target scene component. During this interaction, a second-person perspective image of the virtual object and the target scene component is overlaid on the first scene image. This serves to indicate the interactive behavior of the target scene component when used in a game test scenario and / or a running game scenario during the editing process. The second perspective is determined based on the virtual object. In this method, after editing the scene components in the game editing scene, the virtual object is controlled to interact with the scene components. A test image of the corresponding game test scenario is displayed on the first scene image. The game editing scene is tested in real-time during the editing process without interrupting the editing and design process, reducing the user's operational burden and allowing for early detection of problems, thus reducing later modification costs.

[0088] The step of overlaying and displaying the image formed by the virtual object and the target scene component taken from a second perspective on the first scene screen during the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component includes: displaying a floating window on the first scene screen during the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, and displaying the image formed by the virtual object and the target scene component taken from a second perspective in the floating window.

[0093] The above method also includes: responding to editing operations for the game editing scene, determining scene update parameters for the game editing scene; updating the game test scene based on the scene update parameters, and switching the test screen to the test screen of the updated game test scene.

[0094] The graphical user interface described above also includes a first control; the first control is used to control virtual objects in the game editing scene; the method further includes: in response to a test command, switching the first control to a second control; wherein the second control is used to control virtual objects in the screen formed by the virtual objects and the target scene components captured from a second perspective.

[0095] After switching the first control to the second control in response to a test instruction, the method further includes: responding to a touch operation on the second control and controlling the movement of the virtual object in the frame formed by the virtual object and the target scene components captured from a second perspective.

[0096] After responding to the completion of the editing operation, controlling the virtual object to interact with the target scene component, and superimposing the image formed by the virtual object and the target scene component captured from a second perspective onto the first scene screen during the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, the method further includes: responding to the second editing operation on the target scene component, canceling the interaction between the virtual object and the target scene component, and canceling the image superimposed on the first scene screen.

[0097] The above method further includes: displaying a first prompt message in response to the interaction performance meeting preset conditions, the first prompt message being used to indicate that the editing of the target scene component is reasonable; and displaying a second prompt message in response to the interaction performance not meeting preset conditions, the first prompt message being used to indicate that the editing of the target scene component is unreasonable, and the reason for the unreasonableness.
