The singular forms "a", "the", and "said" used in this disclosure and the appended claims are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term "and / or" used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0047] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used in this disclosure to describe various information, such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other.

[0048] First, the nouns involved in the embodiments of this application are introduced:

[0049] Virtual environment: It is a virtual environment displayed (or provided) when an application runs on a terminal. This virtual environment can be a simulation environment of the real world, a semi-simulation and semi-fictional environment, or a purely fictional environment. The virtual environment can be any one of a two-dimensional virtual environment, a 2.5D virtual environment, and a three-dimensional virtual environment. This application does not limit this. The following embodiments take the virtual environment as a three-dimensional virtual environment as an example for illustration.

[0050] Virtual character: It refers to an active character in a virtual environment. This active character can be a virtual person, a virtual animal, an anime character, etc. For example, the characters, animals, plants, walls, stones, pools, etc. displayed in the virtual environment. The virtual character is controlled by the user. The virtual character can be classified according to work, such as a pharmacist, a magician, a medical practitioner, etc.; it can also be classified according to category, such as human, beast, fairy, etc. Each virtual character has its own shape and volume in the virtual environment and occupies a part of the space in the virtual environment.

[0051] Virtual room: It refers to a three-dimensional room constructed in a three-dimensional virtual environment, used to simulate virtual rooms in worlds such as the real world, the magic world, the imaginary worldview world, and the metaverse world.

[0052] The embodiments of this application provide a schematic diagram of an interaction method based on a virtual room, as Figure 1 shown. This method can be executed by a computer device, and the computer device can be a terminal or a server.

[0053] Exemplarily, as Figure 1 shown in Figure (a) of, in the user interface of the first account, the first virtual room 10, the first virtual character 20 located in the first virtual room 10, and the community access entrance 60 are displayed. Both the first virtual room 10 and the first virtual character 20 belong to the first account.

[0054] Among them, the first account can control the first virtual character 20 to move in the first virtual room 10.

[0055] Optionally, the first virtual room 10 is a virtual room personalized by the first account; or, the first virtual room 10 is selected by the first account from the sample virtual rooms provided by the system, but not limited to this. The embodiments of the present application do not specifically limit the source of the first virtual room 10.

[0056] It should be noted that Figure 1 In the (a) figure shown, the first virtual room 10 is a complete virtual room with walls and a roof. For the convenience of description, only the internal structure in the first virtual room 10 is shown.

[0057] Exemplarily, as shown in the (b) figure of Figure 1 The computer device responds to the trigger operation on the community access entrance 60 and displays the grid virtual community 30. The grid virtual community 30 includes the first virtual room 10 and at least one second virtual room 40 arranged in a grid pattern on the three-dimensional ground. The second virtual room 40 belongs to the second account. By distributing and arranging the first virtual room 10 and at least one second virtual room 40 in a grid pattern on the three-dimensional ground, players can intuitively observe the second virtual room 40 of the second account, thereby quickly finding the second virtual room 40 they want to interact with and improving the human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0058] It should be noted that Figure 1 The grid virtual community 30 shown in the (b) figure is composed of multiple three-dimensional plots. There are intervals between the multiple three-dimensional plots. Viewed from an oblique top view, each virtual room occupies an area of the same size. The first virtual room 10 and the second virtual room 40 in the grid virtual community 30 are displayed as a reduced version of the three-dimensional virtual room style. There are intervals between the virtual rooms, but the virtual rooms in the grid virtual community 30 do not have walls and roofs, and only the internal structure of the virtual rooms is shown.

[0059] The community access entrance 60 is a control for displaying the grid virtual community 30. Optionally, the community access entrance 60 can be in the form of a control or a non-control form, but not limited to this. For example, when the community access entrance is in a non-control form, the first virtual room 10 is given the function of the community access entrance, and the grid virtual community 30 can be displayed by triggering the first virtual room 10.

[0060] The second virtual room 40 is a three-dimensional virtual room constructed based on a three-dimensional virtual environment, and is used to simulate virtual rooms in worlds such as the real world, the magic world, the imaginary world view world, and the metaverse world.

[0061] Optionally, the second virtual room 40 may be at least one of a pet store, a supermarket, a convenience store, a plant store, and a virtual room constructed by a second account, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0062] Exemplarily, as Figure 1 shown in figure (c) of [], the computer device displays the second virtual room 40 in response to an entry operation to enter the second virtual room 40, and controls the first virtual character 20 to enter the second virtual room 40. After entering the second virtual room 40, the first virtual character 20 can interact with the second virtual character 50 and / or virtual items in the second virtual room 40.

[0063] Optionally, the entry operation may be implemented by at least one of the following methods, but is not limited thereto: a room switching control is displayed on the display interface, and the computer device responds to a trigger operation of the room switching control, and while displaying the second virtual room 40, controls the first virtual character 20 to enter the second virtual room 40; or, the second virtual room 40 to enter is selected in the grid virtual community 30, and after the second virtual room 40 is selected, the second virtual room 40 is displayed, and the first virtual character 20 is controlled to enter the second virtual room 40.

[0064] In summary, the method provided in this embodiment displays a community access entry on the user interface of the first account; in response to a viewing operation on the community access entry, displays the first virtual room and at least one second virtual room distributed in a grid style; in response to an entry operation to enter the second virtual room, displays the second virtual room and controls the first virtual character to enter the second virtual room. The present application provides a more community-based display method for virtual rooms that conforms to virtual reality, can display more second virtual rooms per unit area, provides a three-dimensional preview effect of the second virtual room for the first account, thereby reducing the query time required to view the second virtual room and improving the human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0065] Figure 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a terminal provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. The terminal includes a processor 101, a touch screen 102, and a memory 103.

[0066] The processor 101 may be at least one of a single-core processor, a multi-core processor, an embedded chip, and a processor with instruction execution capabilities.

[0067] The touch screen 102 includes an ordinary touch screen or a pressure-sensitive touch screen. The ordinary touch screen can measure a pressing operation or a sliding operation applied to the touch screen 102; the pressure-sensitive touch screen can measure the pressing force applied to the touch screen 102.

[0068] The memory 103 stores the executable programs of the processor 101. Schematically, the memory 103 stores a virtual environment program A, an application program B, an application program C, a touch pressure sensing module 18, and a kernel layer 19 of the operating system. Among them, the virtual environment program A is an application program developed based on the three-dimensional virtual environment module 17. Optionally, the virtual environment program A includes, but is not limited to, at least one of a game program, an Augmented Reality (AR) program, a Virtual Reality (VR) program, a three-dimensional map program, a three-dimensional presentation program, a virtual reality game program, and an augmented reality game program developed by the three-dimensional virtual environment module (also known as the virtual environment module) 17. For example, when the operating system of the terminal adopts the Android operating system, the virtual environment program A is developed using the Java programming language and the C# language; for another example, when the operating system of the terminal adopts the IOS operating system, the virtual environment program A is developed using the Object-C programming language and the C# language.

[0069] The three-dimensional virtual environment module 17 is a module that supports multiple operating system platforms. Schematically, the three-dimensional virtual environment module can be used for program development in multiple fields such as the game development field, the virtual reality field, and the three-dimensional map field. The specific type of the three-dimensional virtual environment module 17 in this application embodiment is not limited. In the following embodiments, the three-dimensional virtual environment module 17 is taken as an example of a module developed using the Unity engine for illustration.

[0070] The touch (and pressure) sensing module 18 is a module for receiving touch events (and pressure touch events) reported by the touch screen driver 191. Optionally, the touch sensing module may not have a pressure sensing function and does not receive pressure touch events. Touch events include: the type and coordinate values of the touch event. The types of touch events include, but are not limited to: touch start event, touch move event, and touch down event. The pressure touch event includes: the pressure value and coordinate value of the pressure touch event. The coordinate value is used to indicate the touch position of the pressure touch operation on the display screen. Optionally, a two-dimensional coordinate system is established with the horizontal direction of the display screen as the x-axis and the vertical direction of the display screen as the y-axis.

[0071] Schematically, the kernel layer 19 includes the touch screen driver 191 and other drivers 192. The touch screen driver 191 is a module for detecting pressure touch events. When the touch screen driver 191 detects a pressure touch event, it transmits the pressure touch event to the pressure sensing module 18.

[0072] Other drivers 192 can be drivers related to the processor 101, drivers related to the memory 103, drivers related to network components, drivers related to sound components, etc.

[0073] Those skilled in the art can understand that the above is only a general schematic illustration of the structure of the terminal. In different embodiments, the terminal may have more or fewer components. For example, the terminal may further include a gravity acceleration sensor, a gyroscope sensor, a power supply, etc.

[0074] Figure 3 The block diagram of the structure of a computer system provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The computer system 200 includes: a terminal 210 and a server cluster 220.

[0075] The terminal 210 installs and runs a client 211 that supports a virtual room, and the client 211 may be an application program that supports a virtual room. Among them, the client 211 may be an application program that supports social functions and virtual rooms, and the social functions are functions in the forms of instant messaging, online meetings, live broadcasts, etc. based on the network.

[0076] When the terminal runs the client 211, the user interface of the client 211 is displayed on the screen of the terminal 210. The terminal 210 is the terminal used by the first user 212, and the first user 212 uses the terminal 210 to control the first virtual character located in the virtual room to perform activities. The first virtual character may be referred to as the first virtual character of the first user 212. The activities of the first virtual character include but are not limited to: at least one of adjusting the body posture, crawling, walking, running, jumping, and picking up. Schematically, the first virtual character is a first virtual character, such as an emulated human character or an anime character.

[0078] Figure 2 Only one terminal is shown in, but there are multiple other terminals 240 in different embodiments. In some embodiments, there is at least one other terminal 240 that is the terminal corresponding to the developer. A development and editing platform for the client of the virtual environment is installed on the other terminal 240. The developer can edit and update the client on the other terminal 240, and transmit the updated client installation package to the server cluster 220 through a wired or wireless network. The terminal 210 can download the client installation package from the server cluster 220 to update the client.

[0079] The terminal 210 and the other terminal 240 are connected to the server cluster 220 through a wireless network or a wired network.

[0080] The server cluster 220 includes at least one of a single server, multiple servers, a cloud computing platform, and a virtualization center. The server cluster 220 is used to provide background services for the client supporting the three-dimensional virtual environment. Optionally, the server cluster 220 undertakes the main computing work and the terminal undertakes the secondary computing work; or, the server cluster 220 undertakes the secondary computing work and the terminal undertakes the main computing work; or, the server cluster 220 and the terminal perform collaborative computing using a distributed computing architecture.

[0081] Optionally, both the above terminal and the server are computer devices.

[0082] In a schematic example, the server cluster 220 includes a server 221 and a server 226. The server 221 includes a processor 222, a user account database 223, an interaction service module 224, and a user-oriented input / output interface (I / O interface) 225. Among them, the processor 222 is used to load the instructions stored in the server 221 and process the data in the user account database 223 and the interaction service module 224; the user account database 223 is used to store the data of the user accounts used by the terminal 210 and other terminals 240, such as the avatar of the user account, the nickname of the user account, the combat power index of the user account, and the service area where the user account is located; the interaction service module 224 is used to provide multiple rooms for users to interact; the user-oriented I / O interface 225 is used to establish communication with the terminal 210 through a wireless network or a wired network to exchange data.

[0083] For the interactive method based on virtual rooms provided in the embodiments of the present application, the execution entity of each step can be a computer device. The interactive method based on virtual rooms can be executed by the terminal 100 (such as the client of the target application installed and running in the terminal 100), or can be executed by the server 200, or can be executed by the interaction and cooperation between the terminal 100 and the server 200. The present application does not make any limitations in this regard.

[0084] Figure 4 It is a flowchart of the interactive method based on virtual rooms provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. This method can be executed by a computer device, and the computer device can be a terminal or a server. This method includes:

[0085] Step 402: Display a community access entrance on the user interface of the first account.

[0086] The user interface of the first account can be the user interface in the application logged in with the first account. Taking the application as a chat program as an example, the user interface of the first account can be at least one of a personal home page interface, a two-person chat interface, a two-person meeting interface, a multi-person chat interface, a multi-person meeting interface, a group chat interface, an up-and-down level chat interface, an upstream and downstream chat interface, and a main function page interface.

[0087] The community access entrance is an interface entrance for accessing the grid virtual community. The community access entrance can be displayed as at least one tangible entrance such as a button, a link, or a menu item, or the community access entrance is displayed using a background image. The community access entrance can be displayed on the user interface of the first account.

[0088] The first account has a first virtual character and a first virtual room, or both the first virtual room and the first virtual character belong to the first account. Among them, the first account can control the first virtual character to move or act in the first virtual room.

[0089] Optionally, the first virtual room is a virtual room personalized constructed by the first account; or, the first virtual room is selected by the first account from the sample virtual rooms provided by the system, but not limited to this. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on the source of the first virtual room.

[0090] In the case where the first virtual room is a virtual room personalized constructed by the first account, the virtual props placed in the first virtual room are custom-arranged by the first account, and the virtual props include at least one of furniture, household appliances, and household items; in the case where the first virtual room is selected by the first account from the sample virtual rooms provided by the system, the virtual props placed in the first virtual room are default settings.

[0091] Optionally, the virtual props placed in the first virtual room can be freely moved, replaced, or removed.

[0092] Exemplarily, as Figure 5 shown in the schematic diagram of constructing a virtual room, as Figure 5 shown in Figure (a) therein, a construction reminder 501 of the virtual room is displayed on the display interface. After selecting to construct one's own virtual room, one can select from multiple sample rooms 502 provided by the system; as Figure 5 shown in Figure (b) therein of the multiple sample rooms 502, after selecting one sample room 502 from the multiple sample rooms 502, the selected sample room 502 will be displayed on the display interface as a window for showing one's own personality externally, that is, taking this sample room 502 as the first virtual room 503 of the first account, as Figure 5The first virtual room 503 shown in Figure (c). A custom control 504 is also displayed on the display interface of the first virtual room 503. The custom control 504 can customize the design of the first virtual room 503. The computer device responds to the triggering operation of the custom control 504, such as Figure 5 The addable furniture 505 shown in Figure (d), and decorates the first virtual room 503 by selecting one or more pieces of furniture 505.

[0093] In addition, in addition to customizing the design of the virtual room, the image of the virtual character can also be customized, such as Figure 6 The schematic diagrams of multiple candidate virtual characters shown, in Figure 6 which include at least one candidate virtual character 601. The user can select a favorite virtual character from them as the first virtual character representing themselves.

[0094] Step 404: Respond to the viewing operation of the community access entrance and display the grid virtual community.

[0095] The viewing operation can be at least one of operations such as clicking, double-clicking, and swiping on the community access entrance.

[0096] The grid virtual community includes the first virtual room and at least one second virtual room arranged in a grid pattern on the three-dimensional ground. The second virtual room belongs to the second account.

[0097] The grid virtual community is composed of multiple three-dimensional plots. Each virtual room occupies at least one three-dimensional plot. Intervals or isolation belts are set between the plots in the grid virtual community to distinguish the plots. For example, blank intervals are set between the plots, or trees are planted between the plots as isolation belts. The grid virtual community is viewed from an oblique top view. Each virtual room occupies one plot. The first virtual room and the second virtual room in the grid virtual community are displayed in a reduced three-dimensional virtual room style, but the virtual rooms in the grid virtual community have no walls and roofs, and only the internal structure of the virtual rooms is displayed.

[0098] Optionally, the shape of the plot includes at least one of rectangle, circle, rounded matrix, and irregular shape, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0099] Optionally, the area of the plot can be of a fixed size, that is, the plot areas in the grid virtual community are equal; or it can be adjusted according to the size of the room, that is, after determining the position of the virtual room in the grid virtual community, the plot will be automatically adjusted according to the size of the virtual room, so as to adaptively place the virtual room.

[0100] Optionally, the display style of the plots includes at least one of the following: displaying all the plots in the grid virtual community at once, that is, both the occupied plots and the unoccupied plots will be displayed simultaneously, and the unoccupied plots are shown as blank; or, only displaying the occupied plots, and the unoccupied plots will be displayed only after being occupied. For example, an interval or isolation zone is shown around the occupied plots, while the unoccupied plots are not divided and are a whole, without an interval or isolation zone between the plots, for simulating an uncultivated area.

[0101] Exemplarily, as Figure 7 shown in the schematic diagram of the grid virtual community, the grid virtual community 701 is composed of multiple three-dimensional plots. Viewed from an oblique top view, each virtual room occupies a rounded rectangular area of the same area. In addition to displaying virtual rooms in the grid virtual community 701, there are also different types of plots, such as public plots like lawns, basketball courts, football fields, shopping malls, supermarkets, etc., so as to simulate the sense of life in a real community; players can perform two-finger zooming or slide the page to view other areas. In the grid virtual community 701, a first virtual room 702 and a second virtual room 703 are shown. The distance between the virtual rooms corresponding to different accounts will change due to at least one of the intimacy value and the relationship type between the accounts. For example, the higher the intimacy value, the closer the distance between the two virtual rooms. In addition, introduction information 704 is also shown on the plot occupied by each virtual room in the grid virtual community 701. The introduction information 704 includes a nickname, intimacy information, interaction identifier, gifts, etc. Click on the corresponding position in the introduction information 704 to enter the corresponding page. According to the obtained interaction identifier or relationship level, the plots occupied by the virtual rooms will have different display effects.

[0102] Optionally, the second virtual room may be at least one of a pet store, a supermarket, a convenience store, a plant store, and a virtual room constructed by a second account, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0103] The second virtual room includes at least one virtual item. For example, the virtual items include, but are not limited to, one or more of a display area of virtual furniture, virtual pets, virtual appliances, virtual clothing, virtual plants, virtual food, virtual means of transportation, virtual house models, virtual raw materials, virtual semi-finished products, virtual equipment, and virtual services.

[0105] The viewing operation of the community access entrance can be implemented by at least one of the following methods, but is not limited thereto:

[0106] · When the community access entrance is in a non-control form, for example, endowing the background area of the first virtual room with the function of the community access entrance, and triggering the background area of the first virtual room to view the second virtual room;

[0107] · When the community access entrance is in a control form, triggering the viewing control to view the second virtual room.

[0108] In some embodiments, the arrangement mode of the second virtual room in the grid virtual community is associated with at least one of the intimacy value and the relationship type between the second account and the first account.

[0109] Among them, the intimacy value is a numerical value used to represent the degree of interaction between two accounts. The calculation steps of the intimacy value include: the computer device obtains at least one of the account interaction content between the first account and the second account, the person-room interaction content between the first virtual character and the second virtual room, and the role interaction content between the first virtual character and the second virtual character in the second virtual room; the computer device calculates the intimacy value between the first account and the second account based on at least one of the account interaction content, the person-room interaction content, and the role interaction content.

[0110] It should be noted that the intimacy value between the first account and the second account can be calculated by the server or by the terminal. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0111] For example, each interaction content corresponds to an intimacy score. By recording the intimacy scores corresponding to the historical account interaction content, person-room interaction content, and role interaction content, the intimacy value between the first account and the second account is determined according to the intimacy scores.

[0112] Account interaction content refers to the interaction between accounts. For example, it includes at least one of making a call, sending a message, sending an emoji, sending a red envelope, liking a signature or status between a first account and a second account, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0113] Avatar-room interaction content refers to the interaction between a virtual avatar and a virtual room. For example, it includes at least one of a first virtual avatar liking a second virtual room, a first virtual avatar adding furniture to a second virtual room, and a first virtual avatar cleaning the second virtual room, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0114] Avatar-avatar interaction content refers to the interaction between virtual avatars. For example, it includes at least one of a first virtual avatar and a second virtual avatar dancing hand in hand, a first virtual avatar singing to a second virtual avatar, and a first virtual avatar sending flowers to a second virtual avatar, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0115] Exemplarily, as Figure 8 shown in the schematic diagram of the intimacy value, each second virtual avatar corresponds to an intimacy value control 801. By triggering the intimacy value control 801, an intimacy panel between the first virtual avatar and the second virtual avatar can be displayed, and the intimacy value is displayed in the intimacy panel.

[0116] In some embodiments, the distance between the second virtual room and the first virtual room has a negative correlation with the intimacy value. For example, the higher the intimacy value between the first account and the second account, the closer the distance between the second virtual room and the first virtual room.

[0117] Optionally, the virtual room distance can be determined according to the distance between the center points of the virtual rooms; or, the virtual room distance can be determined according to the distance between the center points corresponding to the rounded rectangle areas occupied by the virtual rooms, but is not limited thereto.

[0118] The relationship type refers to the relationship between a first account and a second account, or the relationship between a first virtual avatar and a second virtual avatar.

[0119] Optionally, the relationship type includes at least one of a couple relationship, a family member relationship, a friend relationship, a colleague relationship, a spousal relationship, a teacher-student relationship, and a classmate relationship, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0120] In some embodiments, the second virtual room and the first virtual room are in a connected state in the grid virtual community, and the connected state is related to a specified relationship type between the first account and the second account.

[0121] The specified relationship refers to the default intimate relationship of the system, or the intimate relationship set by the user.

[0122] For example, the specified relationships defined by the player include at least one of kinship, romantic relationship, family relationship, and spousal relationship, but are not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0123] For example, when the first account and the second account are in a romantic relationship, the second virtual room and the first virtual room are connected. The first virtual character can freely enter the connected second virtual room through the connection channel.

[0124] Among them, the connected state is represented by the same plot shared by the first virtual room and the second virtual room. The plot colors and / or styles shared by different intimate relationships can be different. For example, the first virtual room and the second virtual room in a romantic relationship are adjacent and share a pink plot; the first virtual room and the second virtual room in a spousal relationship are adjacent and share a red plot, and so on. Exemplarily, as Figure 7 shown in the schematic diagram of the grid virtual community, the second virtual room and the first virtual room are in a connected state in the grid virtual community. In Figure 7 it is represented by a black dashed box as the connected state. The second virtual room and the first virtual room in the connected state share a plot and can freely enter the connected second virtual room through the connection channel.

[0125] Step 406: In response to the entry operation into the second virtual room, display the second virtual room and control the first virtual character to enter the second virtual room.

[0126] Select the second virtual room to enter in the grid virtual community. After a second virtual room is selected, the computer device displays the second virtual room and controls the first virtual character to enter the second virtual room.

[0127] Exemplarily, after the first virtual character enters the second virtual room, the first virtual character can interact with the second virtual character and / or virtual items in the second virtual room.

[0128] Optionally, the interaction includes at least one of the first virtual character and the second virtual character in the second virtual room singing together, the first virtual character and the second virtual character in the second virtual room dancing together, the first virtual character greeting the second virtual character in the second virtual room, and the first virtual character picking up virtual items, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations in this regard. For example, the first virtual character and the second virtual character have a conversation, and the first virtual character eats fruits in the second virtual room.

[0129] In some embodiments, when a first virtual character enters a second virtual room, the second virtual room is enlarged and displayed, and at least one interaction control is displayed; in response to a triggering operation on the at least one interaction control, a first virtual character and a second virtual character are displayed in the second virtual room to perform an interaction action corresponding to the interaction control.

[0130] Optionally, the interaction control includes at least one of a New Year greeting control, a blessing control, a poke control, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0131] For example, a player of a first account can click on the plot occupied by the second virtual room corresponding to the second account in the grid virtual community. After the click, the second virtual room will be enlarged for interaction. Interaction controls are displayed in the second virtual room, such as a New Year greeting button, a poke button, etc. By clicking on the interaction control, a picture of the first virtual character interacting in the second virtual room is played, and at the same time, the intimacy value between the first account and the second account will also be increased accordingly.

[0132] In summary, the method provided in this embodiment displays a community access entrance on the user interface of the first account; in response to a viewing operation on the community access entrance, a first virtual room and at least one second virtual room distributed in a grid style are displayed; in response to an entry operation to enter the second virtual room, the second virtual room is displayed, and the first virtual character is controlled to enter the second virtual room. The present application provides a more community-based display method for virtual rooms that conforms to virtual reality, can display more second virtual rooms per unit area, provides a three-dimensional preview effect of the second virtual room for the first account, thereby reducing the query time required to view the second virtual room and improving the human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0133] The method provided in this embodiment modifies the position of the second virtual room in the grid virtual community by obtaining the intimacy value and relationship type between the first account and the second account. The higher the intimacy, the closer the virtual rooms are. Those with a close relationship can make the virtual rooms interconnected, making the virtual rooms presented in the grid virtual community more in line with a real community and improving the user experience.

[0134] Since there can be more than one user interface of the first account, there are at least two community access entrances displayed on the user interface of the first account, and different community access entrances can be displayed on different user interfaces. At least one of the layouts and styles of the grid virtual communities accessed by different community access entrances is different. Next, a detailed introduction will be given to displaying different grid virtual communities by triggering different community access entrances.

Virtual characters in the account set can carry out activities in the community public venues, which promotes the interaction among group members and improves the human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0210] In addition to the above description of displaying different grid virtual communities by triggering different community access entrances, some other functions related to virtual rooms will be described next.

[0211] In some embodiments, the computer device dynamically displays the visitor virtual characters that have historically accessed the first virtual room on the first user interface, and the visitor virtual characters do not belong to the first account. Optionally, the first virtual room is displayed on the first user interface, and the computer device dynamically displays the visitor virtual characters that have historically accessed the first virtual room in the first virtual room.

[0212] And / or, a group photo of visitors who have entered the first virtual room is displayed on the first user interface. The group photo of visitors includes the first virtual character and the visitor virtual characters that have historically accessed the first virtual room. Optionally, the first virtual room is displayed on the first user interface, and the computer device displays the group photo of visitors who have entered the first virtual room in the first virtual room.

[0213] Optionally, the dynamic display includes at least one of loop playback, interval playback, sequential playback, and reverse playback, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0214] It should be noted that the dynamically displayed visitor virtual characters are virtual characters in three-dimensional styles.

[0215] Exemplarily, as Figure 17 shown in the schematic diagram of the first user interface, visit information 1701 is also displayed in the first user interface. For example, 5 people have visited today. At the same time, a visit animation 1702 will be dynamically played on the display interface. The visit animation 1702 includes the visitor virtual characters that have historically accessed the first virtual room, that is, the second virtual characters that have entered the first virtual room.

[0216] Exemplarily, as Figure 18 shown in the schematic diagram of the first user interface, a group photo of visitors 1801 is also displayed in the first user interface. The group photo of visitors 1801 includes the first virtual character and all the second virtual characters that have entered the first virtual room. This group photo of visitors 1801 can be saved or shared.

[0217] In some embodiments, a computer device also displays a random visit control on the display interface of the grid virtual community; the computer device controls the first virtual character to randomly enter the second virtual room in response to a trigger operation on the random visit control.

[0218] As Figure 19 shown in the schematic diagram of the display interface of the grid virtual community, a random visit control 1901 is also displayed on the display interface of the grid virtual community; the computer device controls the first virtual character to randomly enter the second virtual room in response to a trigger operation on the random visit control 1901.

[0219] In some embodiments, the computer device displays recent status display information on the second virtual room in the grid virtual community so that others can quickly understand the recent status.

[0220] The recent status display information includes at least one of activity information, number of visitors information, and obtained title information within a preset recent duration.

[0221] In summary, the method provided in this embodiment can enable players to quickly understand the interacting personnel by dynamically displaying the visiting virtual characters or visitor group photos, improving the human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0222] It should be noted that the description of other functions in this embodiment can be combined with the description of displaying different grid virtual communities by triggering different community access entrances in the foregoing embodiments to generate new embodiments, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0223] Figure 20 is a flowchart of displaying a virtual room provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. This method can be executed by a computer device. The method includes:

[0224] Step 1501: Request the virtual room layout.

[0225] Exemplarily, the terminal requests the server to obtain the virtual room layout. Optionally, the virtual room layout refers to the layout style of the virtual room. The virtual room here refers to the first virtual room corresponding to the first account or the second virtual room corresponding to the second account.

[0226] Step 1502: Request the first virtual character dressing.

[0227] Exemplarily, the terminal requests the server to obtain the first virtual character dressing. Optionally, the first virtual character dressing includes at least one of the image, clothing, and ornaments of the virtual character, but is not limited thereto, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0228] Step 1503: Start the rendering engine.

[0229] Exemplarily, while the terminal requests the server to obtain the first virtual room layout and the first virtual character dressing, the terminal starts the rendering engine.

[0230] The rendering engine is used to render the first virtual room and the first virtual character.

[0231] Step 1504: Request the basic data packet of the first virtual room.

[0232] Exemplarily, after the rendering engine is started, the rendering engine requests the resource background to obtain the basic data packet of the first virtual room.

[0233] The resource background stores various material data corresponding to the first virtual room and various material data corresponding to the first virtual character.

[0234] The basic data packet of the first virtual room refers to the data of the framework of the first virtual room. After the rendering engine renders the basic data packet of the first virtual room, the obtained first virtual room can be analogous to a roughcast house in the real world.

[0235] Step 1505: Return the basic data packet of the first virtual room.

[0236] Exemplarily, after receiving the instruction to obtain the basic data packet of the virtual room sent by the rendering engine, the resource background returns the basic data packet of the virtual room to the rendering engine.

[0243] Step 1509: Render to obtain an empty virtual room.

[0244] Exemplarily, the rendering engine renders the first virtual room layout and the first virtual character to obtain an empty virtual room and the virtual character located in the empty virtual room. At this time, the first virtual character does not have ornaments, or the first virtual character only has default ornaments.

[0245] Step 1510: Request furniture resources.

[0246] Exemplarily, the rendering engine sends an instruction to the resource background to obtain furniture resources.

[0247] Step 1511: Return furniture resources.

[0248] Exemplarily, after receiving the furniture resource acquisition instruction sent by the rendering engine, the resource background returns furniture resources to the rendering engine.

[0249] Step 1512: Render to obtain the first virtual room with furniture.

[0250] Exemplarily, after receiving the furniture resources returned by the resource background, the rendering engine renders the furniture resources to obtain a virtual room with furniture.

[0251] Step 1513: Request the dressing resources of the first virtual character.

[0252] Exemplarily, the rendering engine sends an instruction to the resource background to obtain the dressing resources of the first virtual character.

[0253] Step 1514: Return the dressing resources of the first virtual character.

[0254] Exemplarily, after receiving the dressing resource acquisition instruction of the first virtual character sent by the rendering engine, the resource background returns the dressing resources of the first virtual character to the rendering engine. After receiving the dressing of the first virtual character returned by the resource background, the rendering engine renders the dressing of the first virtual character to obtain the dressed first virtual character. For example, clothes, shoes and headgear are added to the first virtual character.

[0255] Step 1515: Request animation choreography resources.

[0256] Exemplarily, the rendering engine sends an instruction to the resource background to obtain animation choreography resources.

[0257] Animation choreography resources refer to the action resources or special effect resources of virtual characters.

[0258] Step 1516: Return animation choreography resources.

[0259] Exemplarily, after receiving the animation choreography resource acquisition instruction sent by the rendering engine, the resource background returns animation choreography resources to the rendering engine.

[0260] Step 1517: Render to obtain a first virtual room with furniture and a first virtual character, and play the animation.

[0261] Exemplarily, after receiving the animation choreography resources returned by the resource background, the rendering engine renders the animation choreography resources to obtain a first virtual character with actions. For example, the first virtual character paces in the virtual room.

[0262] Figure 21 It is a flowchart of decorating a virtual room provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. This method can be executed by a computer device. The method includes:

[0263] Step 1601: Request the basic data of the first virtual room.

[0264] Exemplarily, the terminal sends an instruction to request the basic data of the first virtual room to the server. Optionally, the basic data of the first virtual room includes at least one of wall data, floor data, ceiling data, brick data, and window data, but is not limited thereto. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0266] Exemplarily, after receiving the request instruction for the basic data of the first virtual room sent by the terminal, the server returns the basic data of the first virtual room to the terminal.

[0267] Step 1603: Download the basic data of the first virtual room and splice it to obtain the first virtual room data.

[0268] Exemplarily, after receiving the basic data of the first virtual room, the terminal downloads the basic data of the first virtual room and splices the basic data of the first virtual room to obtain the first virtual room data. For example, splice the wall data, floor data, ceiling data, brick data, and window data in the basic data of the first virtual room to obtain the prototype data of the house, that is, the virtual room data.

[0269] Step 1604: Download the spliced first virtual room data for rendering.

[0270] Exemplarily, the rendering engine downloads the spliced first virtual room data from the terminal for rendering.

[0271] Step 1605: Return the furniture placement position identifier in the first virtual room.

[0272] Exemplarily, after rendering the virtual room data, the rendering engine sends the virtual room data and the furniture placement position identifier data to the terminal.

[0273] Step 1606: Display furniture placement position identifiers.

[0274] Exemplarily, after receiving the first virtual room data and furniture placement position identifier data sent by the rendering engine, the terminal displays the first virtual room data and at the same time displays furniture placement position identifiers. For example, a small hand is displayed at a position suitable for placing furniture, and this small hand serves as a furniture placement position identifier. By clicking on the small hand, furniture placement can be achieved.

[0275] Step 1607: Click on the furniture placement position identifier.

[0276] Exemplarily, the player can click on the furniture placement position identifier by means of single - click, double - click or triple - click.

[0277] Step 1608: Request to decorate at this furniture placement position.

[0278] Exemplarily, after clicking on the furniture placement position identifier, that is, after clicking on the "small hand", the terminal sends a furniture rendering request to the rendering engine.

[0279] Step 1609: Return the maximum space occupied by this furniture placement position.

[0280] Exemplarily, the rendering engine returns to the terminal the maximum space occupied by the furniture corresponding to the furniture placement position identifier at this place. For example, the maximum size of the furniture that can be placed at this position is 120*120.

[0281] Step 1610: Request furniture that can be replaced or added.

[0282] Exemplarily, the terminal requests furniture that can be replaced or added from the client.

[0283] Step 1611: Return the furniture list and information.

[0284] Exemplarily, after the server receives the request for replacing or adding furniture sent by the terminal, the server returns the furniture list and the introduction information of the furniture to the terminal.

[0285] Step 1612: Select furniture.

[0286] Exemplarily, after the terminal receives the furniture list and the introduction information of the furniture, the furniture list is displayed on the terminal, and the player can select furniture from the furniture list.

[0287] Step 1613: Download furniture basic data and splice to obtain furniture data.

[0288] Exemplarily, after selecting the furniture to be placed, the terminal downloads the furniture basic data and splices to obtain furniture data, and the terminal sends the furniture data to the rendering engine.

[0289] Step 1614: Replace the furniture placement location identifier.

[0290] Exemplarily, after receiving the furniture data, the rendering engine renders the furniture and replaces the display of the furniture placement location identifier with the furniture.

[0297] Figure 22 It is a schematic diagram of implementing a grid virtual community provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. This method can be executed by a computer device. The method includes:

[0298] In terms of materials, the resource background 1703 exports resources with different levels of detail (LOD) 1702 from the resource repository 1701 for rendering. The resource repository 1701 includes various materials for selection.

[0299] In terms of rendering, when the server 1704 constructs the grid virtual community, it constructs the virtual room 1705 according to the first virtual room information and the second virtual room information. After constructing the first virtual room and the second virtual room, it refreshes the frame 1706 of the screen. At the same time, the rendering engine calculates the distance 1707 between the first virtual room and the second virtual room, and determines the positions of the first virtual room and the second virtual room in the grid virtual community by calculating the distance 1707 between the first virtual room and the second virtual room. After determining the positions of the first virtual room and the second virtual room in the grid virtual community, the rendering engine can download resources 1702 with different levels of detail as needed. The rendering engine determines to configure resources 1708 with different levels of detail for different parts in the grid virtual community according to the resources 1702 with different levels of detail, so as to ensure the rendering accuracy while maintaining the rendering efficiency. After determining the rendering accuracy, invisible objects are removed through the frustum culling method to reduce the number of renderings 1709, and finally the grid virtual community is obtained.

[0300] An interactive method based on a virtual room provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. This method can be executed by a computer device, which can be a terminal or a server. The method includes:

[0301] The interactive method based on a virtual room provided by the present application is an innovative solution based on instant messaging. By building a virtual room with personalized decoration, and then centrally displaying and connecting the virtual rooms of oneself and friends together to form a grid virtual community where the nests are connected, it is more convenient to have various interesting interactions with friends based on virtual characters and virtual rooms. It mainly includes:

[0302] · Customize and build a personalized virtual room, or select a favorite model room as one's first virtual room. The first virtual character will appear in the virtual room as the owner of the first virtual room. The first virtual room can be displayed above the user's profile card, and the user will see the first virtual character and the first virtual room every time they access the profile card.

[0303] · Arrange one's first virtual room and all friends' virtual rooms in a grid style according to certain rules, that is, the nests are connected. Similar to a real-life residential community, the closer the relationship with a friend, the closer their virtual room is to one's own; it is convenient to view the virtual rooms of each friend and quickly find the friend one wants to contact.

[0304] · Different types of friends have different style prompts. For example, if the friend is in a romantic relationship, their virtual room will be connected to one's first virtual room; the first virtual character can enter the friend's virtual room to interact such as paying New Year greetings and playing, and can also receive rewards such as gifts in the friend's virtual room.

[0305] · Group members in the same group chat will automatically generate a group chat virtual room community, and a community style matching the group type will be generated. For example, in the group chat virtual room community of a basketball group, there will be facilities such as a basketball court, where one can quickly view the virtual rooms and virtual characters of group members and interact with them.

[0306] · In a chat conversation with a friend, after sending an activity invitation to the friend, such as playing football, watching a movie, having a meal, etc., building plots such as a football field, a cinema, and a restaurant will appear near the friend's virtual room to remind the friend that someone has invited them to carry out the corresponding activity.

[0307] The embodiments of the present application present virtual rooms and virtual characters in a community-based manner, allowing users to not only interact with the virtual images of friends, but also intuitively view the decoration of friends' virtual rooms. This community-based display method gives users more desire to interact with friends and more possibilities for interaction methods.

[0308] In some embodiments, when the user enters their own profile card, they will receive a reminder to create a first virtual room. They can choose to get a personalized first virtual room based on existing furniture, or freely select one from several selected model rooms provided by the system as their first virtual room. After the selection is confirmed, the first virtual room will occupy a prominent area above their profile card and serve as a window to showcase their personality to the outside world. They or their friends can see it every time they enter this profile card. At the same time, their first virtual character will appear as the host in the first virtual room, and every time they enter the profile card, the first virtual character will have some random welcome actions.

[0309] Exemplarily, by clicking on the background area of the first virtual room, the grid virtual community page will be entered.

[0310] Among them, the layout of the grid virtual community is grid-shaped, consisting of multiple plots, viewed from an oblique top-down perspective. The user and each friend each occupy a plot, and the furniture of the corresponding virtual room is displayed on the plot. In addition, there are different types of plots, such as lawns, ball courts and other public plots interspersed among them, simulating the sense of life in a real community. It is possible to perform two-finger zooming or slide the page to view other areas.

[0311] The user's first virtual room is located in the center of the grid virtual community, and friends are distributed around the user with the user as the center. The closer the relationship with the first account (i.e., the higher the intimacy value) of a friend, the closer the relative position to the first virtual room. Different types of friends have different style tips. For example, if the friend is in a couple relationship, their virtual room will be connected to the first virtual room.

[0312] Each virtual room plot will transmit nickname, intimacy information, interaction identifier, gifts, etc. It is possible to click to enter the corresponding page. Depending on the obtained interaction identifier or relationship level, the virtual room will have different special effects. In addition, each virtual room will also transmit the recently occurred activities to facilitate a faster understanding of the recent situation of friends. For example: "5 people came to visit today", "Obtained the dragon king identifier", "Decorated the small nest", etc.

[0313] By clicking on a friend's virtual room, the plot occupied by the virtual room will be enlarged to display the details of the friend's virtual room. At this time, further interaction with the friend can be carried out.

[0314] Optionally, there are interaction buttons below the page of the friend's virtual room, configured as needed, such as paying New Year greetings, poking, etc. After clicking the interaction button, the user's first virtual character will appear in the other party's virtual room and play the corresponding dual-person interaction actions. At the same time, the intimacy value of both parties will be correspondingly increased after the interaction.

[0315] Optionally, gifts will randomly appear in the virtual rooms of friends. Clicking on the gift will randomly award rewards such as silver coins, clothing, creation vouchers, etc. Each friend's gift can be claimed at most once a day, and claiming a gift can also increase the intimacy value with that friend.

[0316] Optionally, click on the community entrance of the group chat virtual room in the upper right corner of the group chat page to enter the group chat virtual room community page of that group. Similarly, with oneself as the center, other group members will surround oneself; depending on the type of group, the style and layout of the group chat virtual room community will be different. For example, if the group is a football-related group, there will be a football field and other related sports facilities on the group chat virtual room community page, creating the atmosphere of a football community. At the same time, the football field, as a public space, can accommodate multiple group members to enter simultaneously.

[0317] Optionally, after sending an activity invitation to a friend in a chat conversation, such as playing football, watching a movie, having a meal, etc., building plots such as a football field, a cinema, and a restaurant will appear near the friend's virtual room. When the friend enters the grid virtual community, they will find their first virtual character appearing on these plots and reminding the friend of the invitation to carry out the corresponding activity; when sending a gift to a friend in a chat conversation, a gift will appear in the friend's virtual room, or a new plot will be added next to the friend's virtual room as a gift display area, such as setting off fireworks.

[0318] Optionally, by clicking on "randomly visit", a virtual room of a stranger will be randomly matched, and you can add friends or carry out other interactions.

[0319] Optionally, when a friend comes to interact in one's first virtual room, there will be a corresponding prompt when entering one's profile card. Friends who have interacted today will walk through one's first virtual room like a marquee, adding a lively atmosphere. It is also possible to automatically generate a group photo of today's visitors and oneself (i.e., visitor group photo), which can be saved and shared.
