[0015] Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although certain embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the drawings and embodiments of the present disclosure are only for exemplary purposes and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0016] It should be noted that the titles of any sections / subsections provided herein are not restrictive. Various embodiments are described throughout this article, and any type of embodiment may be included under any section / subsection. In addition, the embodiments described in any section / subsection may be combined in any manner with any other embodiments described in the same section / subsection and / or different sections / subsections.

[0017] In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term "including" and similar terms should be understood as open inclusion, that is, "including but not limited to". The term "based on" should be understood as "based at least in part on". The term "one embodiment" or "the embodiment" should be understood as "at least one embodiment". The term "some embodiments" should be understood as "at least some embodiments". Other explicit and implicit definitions may be included below. The terms "first", "second", etc. may refer to different or the same objects. Other explicit and implicit definitions may be included below.

[0018] The embodiments of the present disclosure may involve user data, data acquisition and / or use, etc. These aspects are subject to the corresponding laws, regulations and relevant provisions. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, all data collection, acquisition, processing, processing, forwarding, use, etc. are carried out on the premise that the user knows and confirms. Accordingly, when implementing each embodiment of the present disclosure, the type, scope of use, usage scenario, etc. of the data or information that may be involved should be informed to the user and the user's authorization should be obtained in an appropriate manner in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations. The specific notification and / or authorization method can vary according to the actual situation and application scenario, and the scope of the present disclosure is not limited in this respect.

[0019] In this specification and the embodiments, if personal information processing is involved, it will be processed on the premise of having a legal basis (such as obtaining the consent of the subject of personal information, or it is necessary to perform a contract, etc.), and will only be processed within the scope of regulations or agreements. If a user refuses to process personal information other than the necessary information for basic functions, it will not affect the user's use of basic functions.

[0020] As described above, a user can perform various types of interactions with a virtual object in a virtual environment provided by a computer through a computer. For example, in some virtual scenes, a user can adjust or configure various attributes (e.g., skill configuration, ability matching) of a virtual object through configuration operations (e.g., configuring a virtual object in a configuration interface).

[0021] However, with the development of computers, there are more and more properties that can be configured by users in virtual scenes. Such interaction requires users to be familiar with or even proficient in the relationship between various configuration operations. In addition, the presentation of changes in various properties during the property configuration process is not intuitive enough, resulting in low efficiency in users configuring the properties of virtual objects.

[0022] In view of this, an embodiment of the present disclosure proposes an interaction scheme for virtual objects. According to the scheme, a configuration interface associated with a virtual object can be presented, the configuration interface includes a first area and a second area, the first area includes at least one preset position, and the second area presents multiple candidate virtual capabilities; further, in response to the selection of a first virtual capability among the multiple candidate virtual capabilities, the selected first virtual capability can be presented in the at least one preset position; further, preview information can be presented in the third area of ​​the configuration interface, the preview information indicating a target change associated with a target attribute of the first virtual capability; further, in response to receiving a first operation, the target change can be triggered to be applied to the virtual object.

[0023] Based on this approach, the embodiments of the present disclosure can more intuitively present the changes in the virtual capabilities of virtual objects as they change with user configuration, and improve the efficiency of configuring the virtual capabilities of virtual objects.

[0024] Example Environment

[0025] Figure 1 1 is a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. Figure 1 As shown, example environment 100 may include electronic device 110 .

[0026] In the example environment 100, an application 120 is installed in an electronic device 110. A user 140 can interact with the application 120 via the electronic device 110 and / or its attached devices. The application 120 can be an application that supports user interaction, such as a game application, or any other appropriate application.

[0027] exist Figure 1 In the environment 100 , if the application 120 is in an active state, the application 120 may provide a presentation interface 150 for the user 140 .

[0028] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 communicates with the server 130 to provide services for the application 120. The electronic device 110 can be any type of mobile terminal, fixed terminal or portable terminal, including a mobile phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a notebook computer, a netbook computer, a tablet computer, a media computer, a multimedia tablet, a personal communication system (PCS) device, a personal navigation device, a personal digital assistant (PDA), an audio / video player, a digital camera / camcorder, a positioning device, a television receiver, a radio broadcast receiver, an e-book device, a gaming device, or any combination of the foregoing, including accessories and peripherals of these devices or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can also support any type of interface for the user (such as a "wearable" circuit, etc.).

[0029] The server 130 may be an independent physical server, or a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content distribution networks, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. The server 130 may include, for example, a computing system / server, such as a mainframe, an edge computing node, a computing device in a cloud environment, etc. The server 130 may provide background services for the application 120 that supports content presentation in the electronic device 110.

[0030] A communication connection may be established between the server 130 and the electronic device 110. The communication connection may be established in a wired manner or a wireless manner. The communication connection may include, but is not limited to, a Bluetooth connection, a mobile network connection, a universal serial bus connection, a wireless fidelity connection, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the server 130 and the electronic device 110 may implement signaling interaction through the communication connection between the two.

[0031] It should be understood that the structure and function of the various elements in the environment 100 are described for exemplary purposes only and do not imply any limitation on the scope of the present disclosure.

[0032] Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Example Interaction

[0034] The following will refer to FIG. 2A to FIG. 2D To describe an example interaction process according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2A An example configuration interface 200A according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. The configuration interface 200A may be configured by Figure 1The electronic device 110 is provided as shown.

[0035] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may present a configuration interface in response to a selection of a virtual item associated with the virtual object. The virtual item may be any prop in a virtual scene, which may bring some gain or effect to the virtual object. The user may perform configuration operations in the configuration interface to determine what gain or effect the prop will bring to the virtual object.

[0036] like Figure 2A As shown, the electronic device 110 may present a configuration interface 200A associated with a virtual object. The virtual object may be, for example, a virtual character in a virtual scene, such as a character controlled by a player in a virtual scene. The virtual object may have corresponding equipment and capabilities (including skills and attributes, etc.). In addition, some or all of the capabilities of the virtual object may be adjusted or configured using the configuration interface 200A.

[0037] refer to Figure 2A , the configuration interface 200A may present props 210 and an area 220 for selecting virtual items. Here, virtual items may include items or props that can be selected by the player in the virtual scene. As an example, the prop 210 (i.e., virtual item) may be a drink in the virtual scene (e.g., "Drink 1"), and the virtual object in the virtual scene may adjust its own ability by drinking the drink in the virtual scene such as "Drink Shop". These abilities may be active abilities (i.e., abilities used in response to specific operations) or passive abilities (i.e., abilities that can take effect without specific operations).

[0038] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can determine which virtual item is selected, i.e., "drink" in the current example, by receiving a selection operation performed by the user in area 220. The above-mentioned virtual item may include at least one preset position, and the number of the at least one preset position is determined based on the item attributes of the virtual item. For example, different props (i.e., virtual items) may have different item attributes, which may include the virtual resource consumption or effect of the virtual item (e.g., some props may have more preset positions or special effects). For example, in area 232, the electronic device 110 may present the consumption of virtual resources of "drink 1" in area 232, for example, "free". And "drink 1" has three slots (i.e., preset positions: positions 240-1, 240-2, and 240-3).

[0039] In addition, the electronic device 110 may change the item attributes of the virtual item based on preset conditions. Here, the item attributes may include the attributes, characteristics, parameters, etc. of the item in the virtual scene. For example, if the electronic device 110 receives an upgrade operation from the user for a certain virtual item, the electronic device 110 may modify the item attributes of the virtual item, such as adding more preset locations, or reducing the consumption of its virtual resources.

[0040] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may switch the corresponding prop to another prop in response to the user's switching operation on the pin area 220. The prop may have a higher virtual resource consumption, but may provide more slots.

[0041] In some embodiments, the configuration interface 200A includes a first area 230 and a second area 240. The first area 230 may include at least one preset position, for example, position 240-1, position 240-2, and position 240-3 shown in the configuration interface 200A. These preset positions may include available slots for the prop, and the electronic device 110 may add corresponding capabilities to the slots by receiving configuration operations from the user, thereby configuring the properties of the virtual object.

[0042] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may present a set of candidate virtual capabilities in the second area 240. The virtual capabilities may include active skills, passive skills, amplification effects, etc. of the virtual character in the virtual scene. The following will describe embodiments of the present disclosure using skills as an example of virtual capabilities.

[0043] For example, multiple candidate virtual capabilities may be presented in the second area 240. The second area 240 may be an area that presents all available capabilities. For example, the electronic device 110 may present multiple “skills” (i.e., candidate virtual capabilities) in the second area 240. These skills may be classified according to some preset rules, for example, skills 1 to 4 in the second area 240 are classified as attack skills, and skills 5 to 8 are classified as defense skills.

[0044] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may present some suggested skills in the recommendation area according to preset rules or preset conditions.

[0045] In addition, in some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also present the capabilities of the current virtual object in the area 250 .

[0046] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may consume a target amount of virtual resources in response to receiving the first operation, wherein the target amount is determined based on the virtual item. The virtual resources may include consumable resources in a virtual scene.

[0047] For example, the electronic device 110 may, in response to receiving a trigger operation for the control 234, apply the property adjustment effect of the prop to the virtual object and deduct a corresponding amount of virtual resources. The amount of virtual resources consumed corresponding to each virtual item or prop may be determined based on the virtual item. For example, each prop has a corresponding amount of virtual resources consumed. In other embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also, in response to receiving a trigger operation for the control 212, stop presenting the configuration interface 200A and abandon the property adjustment of the virtual object. If the property adjustment is abandoned, no virtual resources will be consumed, or only part of the virtual resources (less than the target amount) will be consumed.

[0048] refer to Figure 2B , Figure 2B Configuration interface 200B is shown, presenting an example of adjusting properties of a virtual object.

[0049] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may present the first virtual capability in a first position of at least one preset position based on the first selection of the first virtual capability. For example, the electronic device 110 presents the selected first virtual capability in at least one preset position in response to the selection of the first virtual capability from the plurality of candidate virtual capabilities. In some instances, the electronic device 110 may present the selected virtual capabilities (e.g., skill 1, skill 3, skill 7) in positions 242-1, 242-2, and 242-3 in the first area 230 in response to a selection operation for a plurality of virtual capabilities (i.e., skills 1-8) in the second area 240.

[0050] In some embodiments, the types or quantities of virtual capabilities that can be configured with different virtual items may be determined by the item attributes of the virtual items, which may specifically depend on certain conditions or rules preset by the developer.

[0051] Specifically, the electronic device 110 may present the first virtual capability in the second position of at least one preset position based on the second selection of the first virtual capability in response to the item attribute of the virtual item satisfying the preset condition. For example, some virtual items only allow the configuration of one identical virtual capability, but if certain preset conditions are met, some virtual items allow the configuration of multiple identical virtual capabilities. For example, some virtual items that meet the preset conditions may allow the user to select two identical skills. For example, the electronic device 110 may present skill 1 at positions 242-1 and 242-2 at the same time in response to the user's selection operation to indicate that the level of skill 1 can be increased by 2 levels. Among them, the preset condition may be associated with the item attribute. For example, if the consumption amount of the virtual resource of the item is greater than a specific threshold, it is determined that the virtual item meets the preset condition.

[0052] In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can provide a variety of selectable virtual items and enrich the selectable configuration options, thereby further increasing the options for configuring the capabilities of virtual objects.

[0053] In some embodiments, the upper limit of the number of first virtual abilities in the first area 230 is determined based on the item attributes of the virtual item. For example, a specific type of virtual item may allow multiple skills 1 to be configured simultaneously in the first area 230 (i.e., the upper limit of the number of the same virtual ability is higher).

[0054] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may present preview information in the third area 250 of the configuration interface 200B. For example, the electronic device 110 may present the capabilities currently possessed by the virtual character in the area 250, and the preview information may include the name, level, icon, or capability description of the capability. These virtual capabilities presented in the third area 250 may intuitively present the capabilities of the current virtual object, so as to facilitate the user to make a selection for the virtual capability, improve the intuitiveness of the user's configuration operation, and reduce the complexity of configuring the character attributes.

[0055] In some embodiments, the set of candidate virtual capabilities presented in the second area 240 is determined based on reference information associated with the virtual object, the reference information indicating at least one reference virtual capability that the virtual object has been configured with.

[0056] For example, the electronic device 110 may present recommended virtual capabilities in area 240-1. The set of candidate virtual capabilities is determined based on reference information associated with the virtual object. For example, the recommended virtual capabilities may correspond to virtual capabilities that the current virtual object already has, where the virtual capabilities that the virtual object already has are the reference information. Specifically, Figure 2B The equipment of the virtual object shown in the figure has a level 2 "skill 1", then the electronic device 110 can recommend the virtual ability "skill 1" to the user based on the skills attached to the equipment. Or in other examples, the recommendation process can also be based on preset rules or conditions, for example, the electronic device 110 can automatically recommend to the user a virtual ability suitable for the next virtual scene, or recommend a corresponding virtual ability according to the user's operating style.

[0057] In other examples, the electronic device 110 may sort the recommended virtual abilities based on the level of the skills that the virtual object already has. For example, if the equipment of the virtual object comes with skill 1 of level 2, then in area 240-1, the electronic device 110 puts skill 1 first to suggest the user to choose it. In addition, the order of the recommended skills can also be determined based on the upgrade benefits of the skills. For example, if upgrading skill 1 from level 2 to level 3 will bring a significant improvement to the virtual character, then the electronic device 110 may prioritize skill 1 in the front position in area 240-1. For another example, if the upgraded skill 1 can produce a better matching effect with other virtual abilities of the virtual character, the electronic device 110 may also sort skill 1 in a relatively front recommended position.

[0058] Through the above-mentioned recommendation process in the disclosed embodiment, the embodiment of the present disclosure can improve the information acquisition efficiency of the user when configuring capabilities, and reduce the learning cost of configuring capabilities, making the process of user configuring virtual capabilities more efficient.

[0059] In some embodiments, the preview information indicates a target change associated with a target attribute of the first virtual capability. For example, as shown in the third area 250, the virtual object originally has skill 1 at level 2, skill 3 at level 1, and skill 7 at level 1. In response to the user's selection operation, the electronic device 110 presents the virtual capabilities "skill 1", "skill 3", and "skill 7" selected by the user to be added in positions 242-1, 242-2, and 242-3.

[0060] Therefore, the virtual abilities "Skill 1", "Skill 3" and "Skill 7" of the virtual object are increased by 1 level respectively. In addition, the electronic device 110 also presents the target change (i.e., the change of indicator bars 250-1, 250-2 and 250-3) associated with the target attribute (i.e., skill level) of the added virtual ability (i.e., the first virtual ability) in area 250. Here, the increase in skill level can be indicated by the length of indicator bars 250-1, 250-2 and 250-3 becoming longer. The changes here are only illustrative examples, and the changes in the virtual abilities presented in the third area 250 can also be presented, for example, in the form of text, icons, etc.

[0061] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may determine a virtual skill that matches at least one virtual ability based on at least one virtual ability selected via the configuration interface 200B. The electronic device 110 may then associate the virtual skill with the virtual object. Here, the virtual skill may include preset skills of the virtual object, such as combos, preset moves, and the like. Here, the electronic device 110 may determine a virtual skill based on skill 1 presented in area 242-1, skill 3 presented in area 242-2, and skill 7 presented in area 242-3. The virtual skill may be, for example, preset skill 9, which (not shown, and which is different from skills 1 to 8) may not be presented in area 240, and the user may only obtain preset skill 9 by combining other skills.

[0062] In some examples, skill 1 presented in area 242-1, skill 3 presented in area 242-2, and skill 7 presented in area 242-3 may also be skill fragments, and when the added skill fragments reach a preset number (e.g., two or three), the preset skills corresponding to these skill fragments may be activated. For example, when two skills, skill 1 and skill 3, are selected as skill fragments, the corresponding preset skill 9 may be activated and take effect. In other scenarios, in response to 2 skills 1 and 1 skill 3 being selected (i.e., selection of skill fragments), preset skill 10 (not shown) may be activated.

[0063] In some embodiments, the virtual skill includes a preset virtual skill or a combined skill created based on at least one virtual ability.

[0064] In some examples, the virtual skill may include a pre-configured preset skill, such as a preset skill pre-configured by a developer.

[0065] In other examples, the virtual capabilities (e.g., skills) of the added virtual objects can generate new virtual capabilities according to some preset combinations. For example, skill 1 presented in area 242-1, skill 3 presented in area 242-2, and skill 7 presented in area 242-3 can be combined to form a new skill, such as preset skill 9 (not shown in the figure). The effect corresponding to the preset skill 9 generated by the combination may include an improvement in skill level, such as improving skill 1, skill 3, and skill 7 by 2 levels respectively.

[0066] In some embodiments, the combined effect may also include generating linkage or combo effects between skills. For example, the effect of preset skill 9 may include linkage effects of skill 1 and skill 3, and these effects may bring additional gains to the virtual object. In some examples, the above-mentioned combined effect may also be triggered by skill fragments, and the triggering condition may include that the number or type of the selected skill fragments meets the preset condition.

[0067] The virtual skill determination process described above can provide users with abundant virtual capability configuration options, thereby increasing the interactivity of the virtual capability configuration process.

[0068] In addition, in some other embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also present the change of the corresponding virtual capability in the preview information of the third area 250 in response to the user's cancellation operation on certain virtual capabilities. For example, if the user selects "Skill 1" and then clicks area 242-1 to cancel the selection of "Skill 1", the decrease in the skill level of the corresponding "Skill 1" will also be presented in the preview information of the third area 250. The decrease in the skill level may specifically be a shortening of the length of the indicator bar 250-1.

[0069] By presenting the changes in the virtual capabilities of the virtual objects in real time in the third area 250, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide an intuitive and easy-to-understand capability configuration interface and capability change preview interface, allowing users to intuitively observe the impact of their selected virtual capabilities on the virtual objects, and facilitating users to evaluate their selected attribute configurations.

[0070] In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first operation, the electronic device 110 may trigger the application of the target change to the virtual object. For example, if the electronic device 110 receives a user trigger operation on the control 234, the electronic device 110 may apply the above-mentioned change in virtual ability (e.g., an increase in skill level) to the virtual object or virtual character.

[0071] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may present a configuration interface before a virtual object is added to a virtual event in a virtual scene.

[0072] In some embodiments, the configuration of the virtual capabilities can be performed before the virtual event begins. For example, the electronic device 110 can present a configuration interface to the user before the virtual object joins the virtual event so that the user can configure the virtual capabilities of the virtual object before joining the virtual event.

[0073] In addition, during the virtual event, the electronic device 110 may apply a target change to the virtual object. In some embodiments, the change in virtual ability may take effect after the virtual character triggers the target event until the target event ends. For example, the increase in the skill level of the virtual object may take effect after the virtual object enters the virtual scene or starts a task in some virtual scene until the virtual object leaves the virtual scene or the task ends.

[0074] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may present a control 252 in the third area 250. In response to receiving the second operation, the electronic device 110 may present a viewing interface associated with the virtual object. For example, in response to a user triggering operation on the control 252, the electronic device 110 may present a detailed interface (i.e., a viewing interface) of the virtual capability.

[0075] like Figure 2C As stated, Figure 2C A viewing interface 200C of the virtual ability of the virtual object is shown. The electronic device 110 may present the ability details associated with the virtual ability of the virtual object in the viewing interface 200C. For example, the electronic device 110 may present the currently effective skills of the virtual object, the level of each skill, the classification of skills, and other information in the viewing interface 200C.

[0076] In some embodiments, configuration information is presented in the viewing interface 200C, and the configuration information indicates the correlation between multiple virtual props associated with the virtual object and the attribute change of the first virtual ability. Here, the virtual props may include weapons, armor, etc. equipped by the virtual character in the virtual scene, which can provide various abilities for the virtual character. For example, the electronic device 110 can present at least one equipment of the virtual object in the area 260 of the viewing interface 200C, for example, a weapon 260-1 and a helmet 260-2 equipped by the virtual object.

[0077] In addition, the electronic device 110 can also present the attribute changes and configuration information of the virtual abilities corresponding to the weapons 260-1 and 260-2 in areas 262 and 264, respectively. The configuration information also indicates the correlation between the attribute changes of multiple virtual props and the second virtual ability. Specifically, area 262 shows that the weapon 260-1 brings level 1 skill 3 (i.e., the first virtual ability) and level 1 skill 4 (i.e., the second virtual ability) to the virtual object. And the helmet 260-2 has level 1 skill 1. And the changes in these virtual abilities will also be presented accordingly in the indicator bar on the left.

[0078] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may display a first virtual prop in a first style in response to a first virtual prop among multiple virtual props being related to a property change; or display a second virtual prop in a second style in response to a second virtual prop among multiple virtual props being unrelated to a property change.
