[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all of them. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present disclosure described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0024] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present disclosure provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure as claimed, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0025] When users display their original content on an internet platform or provide it to other users, lighting switching is often necessary to indicate time changes or enhance emotions. In related technologies, players can only switch lighting by enclosing the game scene with components and then adjusting the lighting effects using self-luminous or non-luminous components. This method uses point light sources and cannot uniformly control the shadow effects of all virtual objects in the game scene. Furthermore, this method can only achieve lighting switching in the game level edit mode, not within the game level itself, resulting in a poor gaming experience for players.

[0026] Based on the above problems, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, device and electronic device for switching sky lighting in games. This technology can be applied to game scenarios where users display their original content through Internet platforms, especially in lighting switching scenarios in games.

[0027] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for switching sky lighting in a game can be executed on a local terminal device or a server. When the method is executed on a server, the method can be implemented and executed based on a cloud interaction system, wherein the cloud interaction system includes a server and a client device.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, various cloud applications can be run under the cloud interaction system, such as cloud games. Taking cloud games as an example, cloud games refer to a gaming method based on cloud computing. In the cloud game operation mode, the operating body of the game program and the main body of the game screen presentation are separated. The storage and operation of the sky lighting switching method in the game are completed on the cloud game server. The role of the client device is set to receive and send data and present the game screen. For example, the client device can be a display device with data transmission function close to the user side, such as a mobile terminal, TV, computer, PDA, etc.; but the cloud game server in the cloud is responsible for information processing. When playing the game, the player operates the client device to send operation instructions to the cloud game server. The cloud game server runs the game according to the operation instructions, encodes and compresses the game screen and other data, and returns it to the client device through the network. Finally, the client device decodes and outputs the game screen.

[0029] In an optional embodiment, taking a game as an example, a local terminal device stores a game program and is configured to present game screens. The local terminal device is configured to interact with the player via a graphical user interface (GUI), i.e., the game program is downloaded and installed and run conventionally via an electronic device. The local terminal device can provide the GUI to the player in a variety of ways, such as rendering it on the terminal's display screen or providing it to the player via holographic projection. For example, the local terminal device may include a display screen and a processor, the display screen being configured to present a GUI including the game screen, and the processor being configured to run the game, generate the GUI, and control the display of the GUI on the display screen.

[0030] In one possible implementation, the present disclosure provides a method for switching sky lighting in a game, providing a graphical user interface (GUI) via a terminal device, wherein the terminal device may be the aforementioned local terminal device or a client device in the aforementioned cloud interaction system. The GUI displays a scene image of a portion of a game scene and a corresponding sky lighting effect; the sky lighting effect is generated based on sky lighting parameters. As shown in FIG1 , the method includes the following specific steps:

[0031] Step S102 : responding to a sky lighting switching event, determining target sky lighting parameters and lighting switching parameters corresponding to the sky lighting switching event.

[0032] In specific implementation, the above-mentioned sky lighting switching event can be determined according to player settings or R&D needs. Specifically, the player can set the sky lighting switching event, as well as the target sky lighting parameters and lighting switching parameters corresponding to the sky lighting switching event in the game editor. Among them, the sky lighting switching event is used to indicate the trigger event for starting to update the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene. The sky lighting switching event can be a click operation on the switching control displayed in the graphical user interface, or it can be a controlled virtual object controlled by the terminal device entering the target area, etc., which is not specifically limited here. The above-mentioned lighting switching parameters may include lighting switching duration and other switching parameters, wherein the lighting switching duration is used to indicate the time required for the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene to be updated from the current sky lighting parameters to the target sky lighting parameters. The lighting switching duration can be 0 seconds, 3 seconds, 5 seconds, etc.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, the game scene includes a preset light source, the sky lighting parameters are attribute information corresponding to the preset light source, and the sky lighting effect is the lighting effect created by rendering the game scene according to the sky lighting parameters of the preset light source. The preset light source may include parallel light or a point light source. If the preset light source is a point light source, the point light source may be set at a preset position in the game scene, which may be determined based on R&D requirements or player settings.

[0034] In an optional embodiment, the skylight parameter includes at least one of the following sub-lighting parameters: light intensity, light color, light yaw angle, and light pitch angle. The light yaw angle indicates the horizontal angle of a parallel light or point light source; the light pitch angle indicates the vertical angle of a parallel light or point light source. Both the light yaw angle and the light pitch angle have a value range of -180 degrees to 180 degrees.

[0035] In the specific implementation, when the player triggers the sky lighting switch event, the current sky lighting parameters of the game scene, as well as the target sky lighting parameters and lighting switch parameters corresponding to the sky lighting switch event are first obtained; among them, the current sky lighting parameters are also the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene when the sky lighting switch event occurs.

[0036] Step S104, based on the lighting switching parameters, updates the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene from the current sky lighting parameters to the target sky lighting parameters, and dynamically displays the sky lighting effect of the dynamically changing game scene rendered in the process of updating the sky lighting parameters in the graphical user interface; wherein, the process of updating the sky lighting parameters is the process of updating the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene from the current sky lighting parameters to the target sky lighting parameters.

[0037] When a sky lighting switch event occurs, the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene can be updated from the current sky lighting parameters to the target sky lighting parameters according to the lighting switch parameters. During the process of updating the sky lighting parameters, the updated sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene are calculated in real time for each update, and the sky lighting effect of the game scene rendered based on the updated sky lighting parameters is displayed in the graphical user interface. Therefore, the updated sky lighting effect can be dynamically displayed in the graphical user interface, allowing players to intuitively see the changes in the sky lighting effect of the game scene.

[0038] The disclosed embodiments provide a method for switching sky lighting in a game. In this method, players can trigger a sky lighting switching event to switch the sky lighting effects corresponding to the game scene in the game level, making the switching of the sky lighting effects controllable, which helps to improve the player's gaming experience and gaming freedom.

[0039] The following embodiment describes a method for implementing the sky lighting effect of a dynamically changing game scene rendered in the process of updating the sky lighting parameters, where the lighting switching parameter is the lighting switching duration and the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene are updated from the current sky lighting parameters to the target sky lighting parameters based on the lighting switching parameters.

[0040] Specifically, according to the lighting switching duration, the change parameters of the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the unit time are determined in the process of updating the current sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene to the target sky lighting parameters; according to the change parameters of the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the unit time, the current sky lighting parameters and the target sky lighting parameters, the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene are dynamically updated in chronological order; the sky lighting effect of the dynamically changing game scene rendered based on the dynamically updated sky lighting parameters is dynamically displayed in the graphical user interface. Specifically, in the process of rendering the game scene, for example, rendering the virtual objects (such as buildings, characters, etc.) in the game scene, the model is rendered according to the sky lighting parameters using a preset lighting model. In the process of rendering the model, the lighting will affect the visual performance of the model. Therefore, in the present disclosure, by dynamically adjusting the sky lighting information, different visual performance effects will be dynamically generated when rendering the virtual model in the game scene.

[0041] Generally, the longer the lighting switching duration is, the smaller the change parameter of the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the unit time is. In practical applications, the lighting switching duration is multiplied by the specified frame number to obtain the target number of unit time for updating the sky lighting parameter in the process of updating the current sky lighting parameter corresponding to the game scene to the target sky lighting parameter; wherein the specified frame number is used to indicate the number of times the sky lighting parameter is updated per second; the result of dividing one by the target number is determined as the change parameter of the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the unit time. wherein, the specified frame number can be determined according to R&D requirements or player settings, and the specified frame number is usually a fixed value. For example, the specified frame number can be 10 frames, which means that the sky lighting parameter needs to be updated 10 times per second; the specified frame number can be 15 frames, which means that the sky lighting parameter needs to be updated 15 times per second. Specifically, the process of updating the current sky lighting parameter corresponding to the game scene to the target sky lighting parameter can be regarded as the process of the sky lighting parameter changing from 0 to 1, so that the change parameter of the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the unit time can be determined as the result of one divided by the target number.

[0042] Based on the above description, after determining the change parameter of the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the unit time, you can continue to determine the subtraction result of the target sky lighting parameter and the current sky lighting parameter; multiply the change parameter of the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the unit time by the subtraction result to obtain the parameter change corresponding to the unit time; in chronological order, update the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the current unit time to the sum of the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the previous unit time of the current unit time and the parameter change; among them, in the process of updating the sky lighting parameter, the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the first unit time when the sky lighting parameter starts to be updated is the current sky lighting parameter, and the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the last unit time is the target sky lighting parameter.

[0043] In practical applications, the subtraction result obtained by subtracting the target sky lighting parameter from the current sky lighting parameter is multiplied by the change parameter of the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the unit time to obtain the parameter change between two adjacent unit times. It can also be understood that the value obtained by subtracting the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the current unit time from the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the previous unit time is the parameter change. Then, in the process of updating the sky lighting parameter, in chronological order, the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the first unit time at which the sky lighting parameter starts to be updated is determined as the current sky lighting parameter, the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the second unit time is determined as the sum of the current sky lighting parameter and the parameter change, the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the third unit time is determined as the sum of the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the second unit time and the parameter change, and so on, until the sky lighting parameter corresponding to the last unit time is the target sky lighting parameter.

[0044] In a specific implementation, the sky lighting parameter includes at least one sub-lighting parameter; this sub-lighting parameter can be any of the following: light intensity, light color, light yaw angle, and light pitch angle. Therefore, it is necessary to determine a process for dynamically updating each sub-lighting parameter in the sky lighting parameter in a chronological order. This process performs the following steps 10-11 for each sub-lighting parameter in the sky lighting parameter:

[0045] Step 10: Determine the subtraction result between the sub-illumination parameters in the target sky illumination parameters and the sub-illumination parameters in the current sky illumination parameters.

[0046] Step 11: multiply the change parameter of the sky illumination parameter corresponding to the unit time by the subtraction result to obtain the parameter change amount of the sub-illumination parameter corresponding to the unit time.

[0047] Step 12, in chronological order, updates the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the current unit time to the sum of the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the previous unit time of the current unit time and the parameter change of the sub-lighting parameter; wherein, in the process of updating the sub-lighting parameter, the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the first unit time when the sub-lighting parameter starts to be updated is the sub-lighting parameter in the current sky lighting parameter, and the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the last unit time is the sub-lighting parameter in the target sky lighting parameter.

[0048] In the process of updating the sub-lighting parameters, in chronological order, the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the first unit time when the sub-lighting parameter starts to be updated is determined as the sub-lighting parameter in the current sky lighting parameter, the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the second unit time is determined as the sum of the sub-lighting parameter in the current sky lighting parameter and the parameter change amount, the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the third unit time is determined as the sum of the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the second unit time and the parameter change amount, and so on, until the sub-lighting parameter corresponding to the last unit time is the sub-lighting parameter in the target sky lighting parameter.

[0049] Specifically, if the current lighting pitch angle is 0 degrees and the target lighting pitch angle is 90 degrees, the lighting switching duration is calculated to require 30 unit times. The lighting pitch angle corresponding to the game scene can be updated from 0 degrees to 90 degrees. In chronological order, the lighting pitch angle corresponding to each unit time is [3, 6, 9, 12, …, 90].

[0050] In the above method, the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene can be updated from the current sky lighting parameters to the target sky lighting parameters according to the lighting switching duration, and the dynamic changes of the sky lighting effects during the sky lighting parameter update process can be displayed in the graphical user interface, thereby immersing players in the game and improving the player's gaming experience.

[0051] The present disclosure also provides another method for switching sky lighting in a game. This method is implemented based on the above embodiment and focuses on describing the specific process of pausing and switching sky lighting parameters. As shown in FIG2 , the method includes the following specific steps:

[0052] Step S202, responding to the game start instruction, controlling the graphical user interface to display the game scene corresponding to the game match.

[0053] The game start instruction can be determined based on the game rules. For example, the game start instruction can be triggered by the player triggering a start game control in the graphical user interface, or the game start instruction can be triggered by the player triggering any area in the graphical user interface. When the graphical user interface displays the game scene corresponding to the game match, the controlled virtual object controlled by the terminal device is in the game level or game match.

[0054] Step S204 , responding to a sky lighting switching event, determining target sky lighting parameters and lighting switching parameters corresponding to the sky lighting switching event.

[0055] Step S206, based on the lighting switching parameters, the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene are updated from the current sky lighting parameters to the target sky lighting parameters, and the sky lighting effect of the dynamically changing game scene rendered in the process of updating the sky lighting parameters and the shadow effect of the virtual objects in the game scene rendered based on the lighting yaw angle and lighting pitch angle in the dynamically updated sky lighting parameters are dynamically displayed in the graphical user interface.

[0056] In a specific implementation, a game scene may include multiple virtual objects, including virtual characters, virtual buildings, or virtual components within the game scene. Since skylights illuminate virtual objects, occlusion may occur. Therefore, shadow effects on virtual objects can be rendered based on the vertical yaw angle and horizontal pitch angle of the skylight's light. Typically, when the yaw angle and pitch angle are both 90 degrees, virtual objects will not be shadowed.

[0057] In one embodiment, the process of updating the sky lighting parameters lasts for a preset time period, which matches the lighting switching time period. The specific time period corresponding to the preset time period can be determined according to the player's settings.

[0058] Step S208, in the process of updating the sky lighting parameters, respond to the sky lighting update pause event, suspend the process of updating the sky lighting parameters, and continuously display the sky lighting effect of the game scene rendered according to the corresponding sky lighting parameters when responding to the sky lighting update pause event in the graphical user interface.

[0059] In specific implementations, the above-mentioned skylight update pause event can be determined based on player settings or R&D requirements. Specifically, players can set a skylight update pause event in the game editor, which is used to indicate the trigger event for pausing the update of the skylight parameters corresponding to the game scene.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, the graphical user interface further displays a switch control and a pause control; the sky lighting switch event includes triggering the switch control; and the sky lighting pause update event includes triggering the pause control.

[0061] In another optional embodiment, before responding to the sky lighting switching event in step S202, the system may further respond to a control instruction for the controlled virtual object corresponding to the terminal device, controlling the controlled virtual object to perform a first gaming behavior that satisfies a first preset condition, thereby triggering the sky lighting switching event. The first gaming behavior of the first preset condition may be determined based on the player's settings. Optionally, the first gaming behavior of the first preset condition may be controlling the controlled virtual object to move to a target area in the game scene. The target area is a specific area within the game scene, and the specific area within the game scene may be determined based on the player's settings. Based on this, before responding to the sky lighting pause and update event in step S208, the system may further respond to a control instruction for the controlled virtual object corresponding to the terminal device, controlling the controlled virtual object to perform a second gaming behavior that satisfies a second preset condition, thereby triggering the sky lighting pause and update event. The second gaming behavior of the second preset condition may be determined based on the player's settings. Optionally, the second gaming behavior of the second preset condition may be controlling the controlled virtual object to separate from the target area in the game scene. In this manner, players can control the switching and pausing of sky lighting by controlling the movement of the controlled virtual object, enriching gameplay.

[0062] During the process of updating the sky lighting parameters, if the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene have not switched to the target sky lighting parameters, the player triggers the sky lighting update pause event, which will immediately stop updating the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene, and continue to display the sky lighting effect of the game scene rendered according to the corresponding sky lighting parameters when responding to the sky lighting update pause event in the graphical user interface.

[0063] If the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene have been switched to the target sky lighting parameters, the switching will stop when switching to the target sky lighting parameters. At this time, if the player triggers the sky lighting pause update event, the sky lighting parameters corresponding to the game scene will not change, and the sky lighting effect of the game scene rendered based on the target sky lighting parameters will still be displayed in the graphical user interface, as well as the shadow effects of the virtual objects in the rendered game scene.

[0064] In actual applications, if during the process of updating the sky lighting parameters, the current sky lighting parameter is A, the target sky lighting parameter is B, and the current sky lighting parameter is C, then when a message is received that the sky lighting parameter needs to be switched to D, it will switch directly from C to D.

[0065] The above-mentioned skylight switching method in the game can change the skylight effect by receiving events during the game. At the same time, the skylight switching in this method can be overridden. When the skylight parameters are being updated, the new skylight parameters will be directly changed from the current updated skylight parameters after the replacement takes effect, thereby improving the player's gaming experience.

[0066] The present disclosure also provides another method for switching sky lighting in a game. This method is implemented based on the above embodiment. The method focuses on describing the process of setting a sky lighting switching event, a sky lighting pause update event, target sky lighting parameters, and lighting switching parameters. As shown in FIG3 , the method includes the following specific steps:

[0067] Step S302: Displaying a game editing scene and an editing window in a graphical user interface; wherein the editing window includes a plurality of editable components.

[0068] In a specific implementation, when a game editing command is triggered, a game editing scene and editing window may be displayed in the graphical user interface. The game editing command may be determined according to the game rules. For example, the editing command may be an operation to enter the game editor or an operation to select a scene map for editing. The above-mentioned game editing scene is a game scene in which editable components can be edited in the game editor.

[0069] The editing window can include multiple editable components. The specific component types and configurations of these editable components can be set according to R&D requirements. In actual applications, the editing window can include multiple different types of editable components, such as terrain components, mechanism components, decoration components, and combination components. Furthermore, each type of editable component also contains multiple editable components. Editable components of the same type have different display parameters in the game scene. This means that some editable components are visible in the game editing scene and in the game scene, while some are visible in the game editing scene but not in the game scene. For example, the large base plate component and sector frustum component in the terrain component, and the cylindrical component and gear component in the mechanism component are all editable components that are visible in the game editing scene and in the game scene. However, the spawn point component and respawn alternative point component corresponding to the logic component in the mechanism component are all editable components that are visible in the game editing scene but not in the game scene.

[0070] Step S304, in response to the selection operation on the target editable component, control the generation of a virtual object corresponding to the target editable component in the game editing scene; wherein the virtual object is configured to be displayed with preset display parameters, and the target editable component is a component among multiple editable components.

[0071] The preset display parameters include whether the display is visible or invisible in the game scene. In specific implementation, the specific operation of the above selection operation can be determined according to R&D requirements. For example, the selection operation can be dragging the target editable component into the game editing scene, or clicking or long pressing the target editing component in the editing window.

[0072] Step S306 , in response to the editing operation on the target editable component, determining the sky lighting switching event, target sky lighting parameters, and lighting switching parameters corresponding to the target editable component.

[0073] In a specific embodiment, a setting control is also displayed in the graphical user interface; the above step S306 can be implemented by the following steps 20-22:

[0074] Step 30, in response to the trigger operation for the setting control, the parameter setting panel corresponding to the target editable component is displayed in the editing window; wherein, the parameter setting panel includes multiple editable controls; the editable controls are used to set the sky lighting switching event, target sky lighting parameters and lighting switching parameters corresponding to the target editable component.

[0075] In specific implementation, the above-mentioned triggering operation for the setting control can be a click operation or a long press operation on the setting control. Triggering the setting control can display the parameter setting panel corresponding to the target editing component. The parameter setting panel is used to set the sky lighting switching event, target sky lighting parameters and lighting switching parameters corresponding to the target editable component.

[0076] Step 21 : In response to the event setting operation on the parameter setting panel, determine the sky lighting switching event corresponding to the target editable component.

[0077] In a specific implementation, the parameter setting panel includes a first editable control for setting a skylight toggle event and a second editable control for setting a skylight pause event. Therefore, in response to a first input operation on the first editable control, the skylight toggle event corresponding to the target editable component can be determined based on the first input operation. In response to a second input operation on the second editable control, the skylight pause event corresponding to the target editable component can be determined based on the second input operation.

[0078] The above-mentioned first input operation and second input operation can be determined according to the player's operation. In an optional embodiment, the above-mentioned first input operation includes: setting a target component associated with the target editable component, and setting the sky lighting switching event to: the controlled virtual object controlled by the terminal device moves to the scene area determined by the target component; the second input operation sets the sky lighting pause update event to: the controlled virtual object moves out of the scene area determined by the target component.
