[0062] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0063] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," and the like in this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Instead, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0064] First, the abbreviations and key terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are defined.

[0065] Virtual environment: refers to the environment provided (or displayed) when an application is running on a terminal device. This virtual environment is the environment created for virtual objects to carry out activities. A virtual environment can be a two-dimensional virtual environment, a 2.5-dimensional virtual environment, or a three-dimensional virtual environment. A virtual environment can be a simulation of the real world, a semi-simulation of the real world, or a purely fictional environment. For example, the virtual environment involved in the embodiments of this application is a three-dimensional virtual environment.

[0066] Virtual objects refer to movable objects within a virtual environment. These movable objects can be virtual characters, virtual animals, or animated characters. Players can manipulate virtual objects through external components or by tapping the touchscreen display. Each virtual object has its own unique shape and volume within the virtual environment and occupies a portion of the virtual space. For example, in a three-dimensional virtual environment, virtual objects are three-dimensional models created using animation skeletal technology.

[0067] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an implementation environment of a game photo taking method provided by an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the implementation environment includes: a terminal device 101 and a server 102.

[0068] Among them, a game client capable of providing a virtual environment is installed and run in the terminal device 101, and the terminal device 101 is used to execute the game photography method provided in the embodiment of the present application.

[0069] Exemplarily, a game client capable of providing a virtual environment may be a third-person shooter (TPS) game, a first-person shooter (FPS) game, a multiplayer online tactical competitive (MOBA) game, a multiplayer shooting survival game, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMO), an action role-playing game (ARPG), a virtual reality (VR) client, an augmented reality (AR) client, a three-dimensional map program, a map simulation program, a social client, an interactive entertainment client, and the like.

[0070] Server 102 provides backend services for a game client installed on terminal device 101 that provides a virtual environment. In one possible implementation, server 102 performs primary computing tasks, while terminal device 101 performs secondary computing tasks. Alternatively, server 102 performs secondary computing tasks, while terminal device 101 performs primary computing tasks. Alternatively, terminal device 101 and server 102 utilize a distributed computing architecture for collaborative computing.

[0071] Optionally, the terminal device 101 may be any electronic device that can interact with a user through one or more methods such as a keyboard, a touchpad, a remote control, voice interaction, or a handwriting device. For example, the terminal device 101 may be a smartphone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a smart speaker, a smart watch, a PC (Personal Computer), a mobile phone, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), a wearable device, a PPC (Pocket PC), a smart car computer, a smart TV, etc.

[0072] Terminal device 101 may generally refer to one of multiple terminal devices. This embodiment uses terminal device 101 as an example. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the number of terminal devices 101 may be greater or lesser. For example, there may be only one terminal device 101, or there may be dozens, hundreds, or even more terminal devices 101. This embodiment of the application does not limit the number or type of terminal devices 101.

[0073] The server 102 is a single server, or a server cluster consisting of multiple servers, or any one of a cloud computing platform and a virtualization center, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The server 102 is directly or indirectly connected to the terminal device 101 via a wired or wireless communication method. The server 102 has a data receiving function, a data processing function, and a data sending function. Of course, the server 102 may also have other functions, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0074] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above-mentioned terminal device 101 and server 102 are merely examples, and other existing or future terminal devices or servers, if applicable to the present application, should also be included in the scope of protection of the present application and are incorporated herein by reference.

[0075] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for taking photos in a game, which can be applied to the above Figure 1 The implementation environment shown is Figure 2As an example, the flowchart of a method for taking a photo in a game provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. The method can be performed by Figure 1 The terminal device 101 in the embodiment is executed. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes the following contents.

[0076] In step 201 , a game screen is displayed, wherein a first virtual object located in a virtual environment is displayed in the game screen.

[0077] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, a target game capable of providing a virtual environment is installed and running on a terminal device. The target game can be any type of game, and this embodiment of the present application does not limit this. The target game can be a game that requires independent download and installation, or it can be an embedded program that relies on a host program to run. Embedded programs include, but are not limited to, applets. This embodiment of the present application does not limit the type of target game. The target game is an embedded program, which is an application developed using a programming language and relies on a host program to run. Embedded programs do not require downloading and installation; they can simply be dynamically loaded into the host program to run. Users can find the embedded program they need through search, scanning, etc., click to run it, and after closing it, it will not occupy the terminal device's memory, which is very convenient. The target game can be a first-person perspective game or a third-person perspective game, and this embodiment of the present application does not limit this. The target game can be a frame-synchronized game client. In other words, the game photo-taking method provided in this embodiment of the present application can be applied to a frame-synchronized game client.

[0078] In one possible implementation, relevant information of the target game is displayed in the display interface of the terminal device. The relevant information of the target game may be a game icon of the target game, a game name of the target game, or other information of the target game. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the relevant information of the target game.

[0079] When the game object wants to run the target game, the game object selects the relevant information of the target game. The terminal device receives the selection operation for the relevant information of the target game, runs the target game, and displays the homepage of the target game. The homepage of the target game displays a start control for starting a game. In response to the triggering operation of the start control, the game screen is displayed, and the game screen displays the first virtual object in the virtual environment.

[0080] Optionally, the game object is a terminal device usage object, and the relevant information of the game object selecting the target game can be the relevant information of the game object clicking the target game. The game object can also select the relevant information of the target game in other ways. The embodiment of the application does not limit the method of selecting the relevant information of the target game. The triggering operation for the start control can be a click operation on the start control, or it can be other operations on the start control. The embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0081] like Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a game screen display provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 The game screen shown shows a first virtual object 301 located in a virtual environment.

[0082] It should be noted that other information may also be displayed on the game screen, and this embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0083] In step 202 , when a photographing function is triggered, object information of at least one second virtual object is displayed, where the second virtual object is associated with the first virtual object.

[0084] In a possible implementation, a photo control is also displayed on the game screen, and the photo control is used to trigger the photo function. Figure 3 302 is a photo control. In response to a trigger operation on the photo control, the photo function is triggered. The trigger operation on the photo control refers to a click operation on the photo control, or the photo control is triggered by other means, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application.

[0085] When the camera function is triggered, the process of displaying object information of at least one second virtual object includes: when the camera function is triggered, displaying a camera page with the first virtual object displayed at a first position on the camera page; and when the summon function is triggered, displaying object information of at least one second virtual object on the camera page. The first position on the camera page can be the center of the camera page or any other position on the camera page, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0086] like Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a photo taking page provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 The photo taking page shown shows a first virtual object 402 located at a first position 401 .

[0087] Optionally, the first virtual object can be moved within the photo page. A direction control can also be displayed within the photo page. By triggering the direction control, the first virtual object can be controlled to move within the photo page so that the first virtual object is positioned within the photo page that the game subject considers to be scenic, thereby making the first photo subsequently obtained more aesthetically pleasing and more in line with the game subject's requirements.

[0088] Optionally, a summon control is also displayed on the photo taking page, such as Figure 4 403 in the figure represents a summon control. In response to a triggering operation on the summon control, a summon function is triggered, which is used to display object information of a virtual object that can be summoned. The virtual object that can be summoned is a second virtual object associated with the first virtual object. The triggering operation on the summon control can be a click operation on the summon control or other operations on the summon control, which are not limited in this embodiment of the application.

[0089] In one possible implementation, when the summon function is triggered, before displaying the object information of at least one second virtual object on the photo page, it is necessary to first determine the second virtual object. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the process of determining the second virtual object. Optionally, the process of determining the second virtual object includes: when the summon function is triggered, determining a candidate virtual object, the virtual environment in which the candidate virtual object is located is related to the virtual environment in which the first virtual object is located; obtaining the number of times the candidate virtual object has been summoned in a target time period; and selecting, among the candidate virtual objects, the candidate virtual object whose number of times it has been summoned in the target time period is less than a number threshold as the second virtual object.

[0090] The virtual environment of the candidate virtual object is related to the virtual environment of the first virtual object, which may mean that the virtual environment of the candidate virtual object is the same as the virtual environment of the first virtual object, or that the virtual environment of the candidate virtual object is different from the virtual environment of the first virtual object, but the virtual environment of the candidate virtual object is connected to the virtual environment of the first virtual object. If the virtual environment of the candidate virtual object is the same as the virtual environment of the first virtual object, or if the virtual environment of the candidate virtual object is different from the virtual environment of the first virtual object but connected to the virtual environment of the first virtual object, the distance between the location of the candidate virtual object and the location of the first virtual object is closer than when the virtual environment of the candidate virtual object is different from the virtual environment of the first virtual object and is not connected. Therefore, when the candidate virtual object is summoned, the time required for the candidate virtual object to move from its location to the first virtual object is shorter, thereby reducing the time required to obtain game photos and improving the efficiency of obtaining game photos.

[0091] The target time period can be any time period. For example, the end time of the target time period is the trigger time of the summoning function, and the duration of the target time period is the target duration. The target duration is set based on experience or adjusted according to the implementation environment, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this. For example, the target duration is 10 minutes. The number threshold is set based on experience or adjusted according to the implementation environment, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this. For example, the number threshold is 5. The candidate virtual object whose number of summons in the target time period is less than the number threshold is used as the second virtual object. To a certain extent, it can ensure that each candidate virtual object can be summoned, and prevent the situation where a certain virtual object is always summoned while another virtual object is never summoned.

[0092] In one possible implementation, the second virtual object can be a non-player character (NPC) in the target game. The second virtual object can also be a virtual object belonging to the same game team as the first virtual object. The second virtual object can also be a virtual object belonging to a different game team than the first virtual object. This embodiment of the present application does not limit this. Among them, the non-player controlled virtual object is a type of character in the game, which refers to a game character that is not manipulated by a real player. The NPC can provide players with some game information or trigger plots, and can also have a dialogue function, playing a key role in the game. The object information of the second virtual object can be the object name of the second virtual object, or other information that can uniquely identify the second virtual object. This embodiment of the present application does not limit the object information of the second virtual object.

[0093] Optionally, when the summon function is triggered, the process of determining the candidate virtual objects includes: sending a request to a server when the summon function is triggered, the request being used to obtain a virtual environment of each virtual object in the game; receiving the virtual environment of each virtual object returned by the server; and determining a candidate virtual object from among the virtual objects based on the virtual environment of the first virtual object and the virtual environments of each virtual object.

[0094] For example, ten virtual objects are acquired, and the virtual environments of each virtual object are: virtual environment 1, virtual environment 2, virtual environment 3, virtual environment 1, virtual environment 2, virtual environment 3, virtual environment 1, virtual environment 2, virtual environment 3, virtual environment 1. The virtual environment of the first virtual object is virtual environment 1. Virtual objects that have the same virtual environment as the first virtual object are selected as candidate virtual objects. Therefore, the first virtual object, the fourth virtual object, the seventh virtual object, and the tenth virtual object are selected as candidate virtual objects.

[0095] Before obtaining the number of times a candidate virtual object has been summoned during a target time period, the target time period must be determined. The process of determining the target time period includes: determining a first time based on the trigger time of the summon function and the target duration, where the first time is earlier than the trigger time of the summon function; and using the time period between the first time and the trigger time of the summon function as the target time period. For example, if the trigger time of the summon function is 16:16:23 on January 29, 2024, and the target duration is 10 minutes, then the first time is 16:06:23 on January 29, 2024, and the target time period is from 16:06:23 on January 29, 2024 to 16:16:23 on January 29, 2024.

[0096] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the process of obtaining the number of times a candidate virtual object is summoned in a target time period. Optionally, the process of obtaining the number of times a candidate virtual object is summoned in a target time period includes: generating a summoned number acquisition request based on the object identifier of the candidate virtual object and the target time period, the summoned number acquisition request including the object identifier of the candidate virtual object and the target time period. Sending the summoned number acquisition request to the server. The server receives the summoned number acquisition request, parses the summoned number acquisition request, and obtains the target time period and the object identifier of the candidate virtual object; the server determines the number of times the candidate virtual object is summoned in the target time period based on the target time period and the object identifier of the candidate virtual object; the server sends the number of times the candidate virtual object is summoned in the target time period to the terminal device, so that the terminal device obtains the number of times the candidate virtual object is summoned in the target time period.

[0097] For example, the candidate virtual objects include a first virtual object, a fourth virtual object, a seventh virtual object, and a tenth virtual object, and the number threshold is 5. The first virtual object has been summoned 5 times during the target time period, the fourth virtual object has been summoned 3 times, the seventh virtual object has been summoned 2 times, and the tenth virtual object has been summoned 1 time. Because the number of times the fourth, seventh, and tenth virtual objects have been summoned during the target time period is less than the number threshold, the fourth, seventh, and tenth virtual objects are selected as the second virtual objects.

[0098] After determining the second virtual object, the object information of the second virtual object is displayed on the photo page. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the manner in which the object information of the second virtual object is displayed on the photo page. Optionally, a summon list is displayed on the photo page, and the summon list displays the object information of the second virtual object.

[0099] like Figure 5This is another display diagram of a photo taking page provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 In (1), in response to the trigger operation for the summon control 501, the display Figure 5 (2), Figure 5 (2) shows a summon list 502, and the summon list shows the object information of each second virtual object. The object information of each second virtual object shown in the summon list is shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown in (2) in the figure, I will not go into details here.

[0100] In step 203, when the object information of the third virtual object in at least one second virtual object is triggered, the third virtual object is summoned. After being summoned, the third virtual object moves to the second position of the photo taking page. The second position is in the target area determined according to the first position. The first position is the position of the first virtual object in the photo taking page.

[0101] The object information of the third virtual object may be triggered by clicking on the object information of the third virtual object, or by other means, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0102] In one possible implementation, before summoning the third virtual object, it is necessary to first determine the second position. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the process of determining the second position. Optionally, the process of determining the second position includes: determining a target area based on the first position; determining the occupancy status of each position included in the target area; selecting the positions in the target area whose occupancy status meets the status requirements as candidate positions; determining the distance between each candidate position and the first position based on the position information of each candidate position and the position information of the first position; and selecting the candidate positions whose distance from the first position meets the distance requirements as the second position.

[0103] The fact that the occupied state meets the state requirement means that the occupied state is unoccupied. The fact that the distance between the first location and the first location meets the distance requirement means that the distance between the first location and the first location is the shortest.

[0104] The present embodiment of the present application does not limit the process of determining the target area based on the first position. Optionally, the process of determining the target area based on the first position includes determining the target area with the first position as the center and the target length as the radius. The target length is set based on experience or adjusted according to the implementation environment, and is not limited in the present embodiment of the present application. Exemplarily, the target length is 5 meters.

[0105] In one embodiment of the present application, any candidate position among the candidate positions can also be used as the second position. Alternatively, the aesthetics of the candidate positions is determined, and the candidate position among the candidate positions whose aesthetics meets the aesthetic requirements is used as the second position. The aesthetics of the candidate position is used to indicate the beauty of the scenery of the candidate position. The higher the aesthetics of the candidate position, the more beautiful the scenery of the candidate position; conversely, the lower the aesthetics of the candidate position, the less beautiful the scenery of the candidate position. The aesthetics meeting the aesthetic requirements can be that the aesthetics is greater than the aesthetic threshold. The aesthetic threshold is set based on experience or adjusted according to the implementation environment, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0106] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the method for determining the aesthetics of the candidate location. For example, a picture containing the candidate location is obtained, the aesthetics of the picture is determined, and the aesthetics of the picture is used as the aesthetics of the candidate location.

[0107] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the method for determining the aesthetics of an image. For example, the aesthetics of an image is determined based on the image information of the image. The image information of the image includes the brightness of the image, the number of objects included in the image, the color of the image, etc.

[0108] In one possible implementation, after determining the second position, when the object information of the third virtual object in at least one second virtual object is triggered, the process of summoning the third virtual object includes: when the object information of the third virtual object in at least one second virtual object is triggered, determining a target movement path with the position of the third virtual object as the starting point and the second position as the end point; sending a movement instruction to a device corresponding to the third virtual object, the movement instruction including the target movement path and the object identifier of the third virtual object, the movement instruction being used to control the third virtual object to move to the second position along the target movement path, so that the third virtual object is displayed at the second position of the photo taking page.

[0109] In one possible implementation, the process of determining a target movement path starting from the location of the third virtual object and ending at the second location includes: determining multiple candidate movement paths starting from the location of the third virtual object and ending at the second location; determining the length of each movement path; and selecting, among the multiple candidate movement paths, the candidate movement path that meets the length requirement as the target movement path. The length meeting the length requirement means the candidate movement path that is the shortest. The reason for selecting the shortest candidate movement path as the target movement path is to reduce the time required for the third virtual object to move from its current location to the second location, thereby improving the efficiency of the game photo taking process.

[0110] In one possible implementation, in response to the absence of a location in the target area whose occupancy status meets the status requirement, a notification message is displayed on the photo taking page, indicating that the location of the first virtual object is not suitable for a photo. The content of the notification message can be arbitrary and is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0111] like Figure 6 This is another display diagram of a photo taking page provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 The photo taking page shown has a notification message 601 displayed on it.

[0112] In one possible implementation, after summoning the third virtual object, a target image and a prompt are displayed on the photo capture page. The target image indicates the third virtual object, and the prompt indicates that the third virtual object is moving toward the second location. Optionally, the target image is a running third virtual object, and the prompt may include any content, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application.

[0113] like Figure 7 This is another display diagram of a photo taking page provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 The photo taking page shown therein displays a target image 701 and a prompt message 702 , wherein the content of the prompt message 702 is “The waiter is moving…”.

[0114] In one possible implementation, after summoning the third virtual object, a movement map may be displayed, showing the target movement path and the third virtual object moving along the target movement path. This allows the movement of the third virtual object to be displayed in real time, allowing the game player to understand the movement of the third virtual object, resulting in a better gaming experience and increased gameplay interest.

[0115] Optionally, after summoning the third virtual object, the summoning control is in an unavailable state. Exemplarily, the summoning control is displayed in gray to indicate that the summoning control is in an unavailable state.

[0116] In one possible implementation, after the third virtual object is summoned to the second location, the third virtual object performs a standby action for the third virtual object at the second location. The standby action for the third virtual object can be any action and is not limited in this embodiment of the present application. For example, the standby action for the third virtual object can be a smile.

[0117] In step 204 , a first photo is displayed, where the first photo includes a first virtual object and a third virtual object.

[0118] In a possible implementation, before displaying the first photo, it is necessary to first obtain the first photo. The process of obtaining the first photo includes: intercepting the photo page to obtain the first photo, and the first photo includes the first virtual object and the third virtual object.

[0119] Optionally, a shutter control is also displayed on the photo taking page, and the shutter control is used to trigger the photo acquisition function. Figure 4 404 in the figure represents a shutter control. The process of capturing the photo page and obtaining the first photo includes: when a photo acquisition function is triggered, capturing the photo page and obtaining the first photo. The process of triggering the photo acquisition function includes: triggering the photo acquisition function in response to a triggering operation on the shutter control. The triggering operation on the shutter control may be a click operation on the shutter control, or other operations on the shutter control, which are not limited in this embodiment of the application.

[0120] When the photo acquisition function is triggered, the interactive controls displayed on the photo page can be first canceled, and then the photo page can be captured to obtain the first photo. Since the present application is to obtain a first photo containing the first virtual object and the third virtual object, the interactive controls displayed on the photo page are not important elements of the first photo obtained. Therefore, the interactive controls displayed on the photo page are first canceled, and then the photo page is captured. In this way, the first photo obtained includes the first virtual object and the third virtual object, but does not include the interactive controls, making the first photo obtained neater and more effective.

[0121] like Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of a first photo provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 8 The first photo shown includes a first virtual object 801 and a third virtual object 802 .

[0122] In one possible implementation, when the photo acquisition function is triggered, the photo page is intercepted. Before obtaining the first photo, first photo information of a target virtual object may be determined. The target virtual object is at least one of the first virtual object and the third virtual object. The first photo information of the target virtual object includes at least one of the target virtual object's first photo expression, first photo action, or first photo orientation.

[0123] After determining the first photographic information of the target virtual object, the target virtual object is adjusted based on the first photographic information to obtain an adjusted target virtual object, where the adjusted photographic information of the target virtual object serves as the first photographic information; the target virtual object is removed from the photographing page and the adjusted target virtual object is displayed on the photographing page, so that the first photograph obtained includes the adjusted target virtual object.

[0124] The process of determining the target virtual object's first photographic expression, the process of determining the target virtual object's first photographic action, and the process of determining the target virtual object's first photographic orientation are similar. Therefore, the embodiments of the present application only illustrate the process of determining the target virtual object's first photographic action when the target virtual object's first photographic information includes the target virtual object's first photographic action. The process of determining the target virtual object's first photographic action includes: displaying a first photographic control for the target virtual object on a photographing page; displaying a photographic action determination control in response to a triggering operation on the first photographic control for the first virtual object; displaying action information of at least one candidate photographic action in response to a triggering operation on the photographic action determination control; and when the action information of any candidate photographic action among the at least one candidate photographic action is triggered, using any candidate photographic action as the first photographic action of the target virtual object.

[0125] Among them, the action information of the candidate photo-taking action can be the action name of the candidate photo-taking action, or it can be other information that can uniquely represent the candidate photo-taking action. The embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0126] like Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of a process for determining the first photographing action of a target virtual object provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 9 The photo taking page shown in (1) in FIG. 1 shows a first photo taking control 901 of a target virtual object (first virtual object). In response to a triggering operation of the first photo taking control 901 for the target virtual object, the first photo taking control 901 is displayed. Figure 9 (2) in Figure 9 In (2) of FIG, a photographing action determination control 902 is displayed. In response to the triggering operation for the photographing action determination control 902, the display Figure 9 (3) in Figure 9 In (3), there are multiple candidate names of photo actions, namely, scratching head, making a face, laughing, and smiling. In response to the trigger operation for "ghost face", "ghost face" is used as the first photo action of the target virtual object.

[0127] In one possible implementation, after displaying the third virtual object in the second position of the photo page, an Nth photo control for the target virtual object may also be displayed on the photo page. The Nth photo control for the target virtual object is used to determine the Nth photo information for the target virtual object. The process for determining the Nth photo information for the target virtual object is similar to the process for determining the first photo information for the target virtual object described above, and will not be further described in detail in this embodiment of the present application. Where N is an integer greater than 1. In this way, multiple photo information can be set at once, and then, in subsequent photo shooting processes, multiple photos can be taken continuously based on the photo information for each shot.

[0128] Optionally, when the first photo is acquired, the first photo may be stored in an album corresponding to the first virtual object.

[0129] In one possible implementation, the second photo information of the target virtual object can also be determined, and the second photo information of the target virtual object includes at least one of the target virtual object's second photo expression, second photo action, or second photo orientation. When the photo acquisition function is triggered, the photo page is intercepted to obtain the first photo. Then, the target virtual object can be adjusted based on the second photo information of the target virtual object to obtain a re-adjusted target virtual object, and the re-adjusted photo information of the target virtual object is the second photo information; the adjusted target virtual object is canceled from the photo page, and the re-adjusted target virtual object is displayed on the photo page; the photo page is intercepted to obtain a second photo, and the second photo includes the re-adjusted target virtual object.

[0130] The process of intercepting the photo taking page to obtain the second photo includes: when the photo acquisition function is triggered again, intercepting the photo taking page to obtain the second photo.

[0131] Optionally, after obtaining the second photo, the target virtual object can be adjusted based on the third photo information of the target virtual object to obtain the target virtual object after three adjustments, and the photo information of the target virtual object after three adjustments is the third photo information; the target virtual object after the third adjustment is removed from the photo page, and the target virtual object after the third adjustment is displayed on the photo page; when the photo acquisition function is triggered three times, the photo page is intercepted to obtain a third photo, which includes the target virtual object after the third adjustment. And so on, all the acquired photo information can be traversed to obtain the photo of each shot.

[0132] After traversing all the photo information, the cycle will be restarted so that the player can retake the photo until the player resets the photo information or exits the photo function.

[0133] In a possible implementation, after acquiring the first photo, the first photo may be displayed. Optionally, the process of displaying the first photo includes: displaying a photo page, wherein the first photo is displayed on the photo page. Exemplarily, the process of displaying the photo page includes: displaying the photo page when the exit photo function is triggered. An exit control is also displayed on the photo page. Figure 4 405 is an exit control, which is used to trigger the exit of the photo-taking function. In response to the triggering operation on the exit control, the exit of the photo-taking function is triggered. The triggering operation on the exit control can be a click operation on the exit control.

[0134] like Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of a photo page display provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 10 The photo page shown displays a first photo 1001 .

[0135] After the first photo is displayed, the first photo may be adjusted to obtain an adjusted first photo, and the adjusted first photo may be displayed.

[0136] Optionally, the process of adjusting the first photo to obtain the adjusted first photo includes: when the photo adjustment function is triggered, adjusting the first photo to obtain the adjusted first photo; the process of displaying the adjusted first photo includes: displaying the adjusted first photo on the photo page.

[0137] In a possible implementation, the photo page also displays a photo editing control, such as Figure 10 1002 is a photo editing control. In response to a trigger operation on the photo editing control, the image adjustment function is triggered. The trigger operation on the photo editing control may be a click operation on the photo editing control. The process of adjusting the first photo includes: adjusting the size of the first photo, adjusting the color tone of the first photo, adding a filter to the first photo, adding a sticker to the first photo, etc.

[0138] In a possible implementation, after the first photo is displayed, the first photo may be presented to the third virtual object.

[0139] Optionally, a gift control is also displayed on the photo page, such as Figure 10 1003 in the example represents a gift control. In response to a trigger operation on the gift control, a gift photo function is triggered. When the gift photo function is triggered, the first photo is gifted to the third virtual object. The trigger operation on the gift control may be a click operation on the gift control. When the gift photo function is triggered, the first photo is gifted to the third virtual object.

[0140] After acquiring the first photo, because the first photo includes the first virtual object and the third virtual object, the first photo can increase the favorability between the first virtual object and the third virtual object. Optionally, after acquiring the first photo, the favorability between the first virtual object and the third virtual object is increased by a target value. The target value is set based on experience or adjusted according to the implementation environment, and is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0141] For example, the target value is 2, the favorability between the first virtual object and the third virtual object is 10, and after obtaining the first photo, the favorability between the first virtual object and the third virtual object increases by 2, and the favorability between the first virtual object and the third virtual object becomes 12.

[0142] The degree of favorability between the first virtual object and the third virtual object will affect the number of photo actions and / or photo expressions that can be selected when the first virtual object and the third virtual object take a photo together. That is, the more photos the first virtual object and the third virtual object take, the higher the degree of favorability between the first virtual object and the third virtual object, and the more photo expressions and / or photo actions that can be selected when the first virtual object and the third virtual object take a photo together.

[0143] Optionally, the photo page also displays an exit photo taking control, such as Figure 10 1004 represents the exit photo control. In response to a trigger operation for exiting the photo control, the third virtual object automatically moves back to its original position. If the player exits the photo control while the third virtual object is moving toward the second position, the third virtual object stops moving toward the second position and returns to its original position.

[0144] When taking a photo in-game, the above method summons a third virtual object selected from at least one second virtual object associated with the first virtual object, thereby displaying a first photo including the first and third virtual objects. This method eliminates the need for the first virtual object to run around the game map searching for the third virtual object with which to take a photo. By directly summoning the third virtual object, the time required to capture the first photo is reduced, improving both the efficiency of taking and capturing photos.

[0145] Moreover, the photographic information of the first virtual object and the target virtual object in the third virtual object for the group photo can also be set, so that the photographic information of the target virtual object in the first photo obtained is the set photographic information, making the setting of the photographic information more flexible, and thus making the obtained first photo more in line with the player's requirements.
