Chapter 238 Action System
"... Maybe everyone has noticed that my virtual character image is a bit different from usual today." Han Feng raised the question in everyone's hearts. Everyone was curious whether Han Feng used the upgraded client. "Yes, this is a new feature we are about to launch. A system called the human body dynamic expression motion capture system is added..." Just as he was talking about this, Han Feng made a gesture, and then the six monitors on his head suddenly changed, each screen was divided into two in two images, one of which was the original Han Feng's virtual image, and the other picture was Han Feng's video image in the real world. He was giving a speech to everyone in front of the computer.
The camera was pulled very close, and Han Feng's partial expression was clearly displayed on the display. Suddenly, Han Feng smiled on his face, and then, his virtual characters in the virtual world also showed similar expressions. Then, Han Feng cooperated to make several other expressions, and his corresponding virtual image also showed the same expression.
"I don't know if you've seen anything," Han Feng continued his speech, and his virtual character's mouth began to move at this time. "This capture system can capture our facial expressions dynamically in real time, so that our virtual image can reflect our emotions more realistically, be happy and sad together."
At this time, everyone reported that the so-called capture system was here. For a while, private discussions began to become chaotic. Everyone wanted to express their views on this matter. However, since they are now one-way for Liudu Company, they had to find someone around them to talk about their views on this matter.
This is indeed a very interesting feature. Li Wang stood in the crowd, thinking about what kind of changes this function would bring to the game. At this time, he suddenly accepted someone else's communication request. When he opened it, he was stunned because the prompt window showed four words "Big Sword and Tiger Soul".
He turned around and looked at it, and then he realized that the big sword Hupo was standing behind him at some point. Li Wang showed a helpless expression on his face, so he had to accept his call request.
"Boss Penguin, what kind of capture system does this change the game? I don't think it's useful. The game is, who will pay attention to these details? Everyone is concerned about the game's plot system, monster system and upgrade system. Han Feng spent so much effort to introduce such a function to you?" Big Sword Hupo really couldn't understand.
"We can't figure out the official strategy of Six Degrees." Li Wang didn't see the mystery, but he knew that Han Feng would definitely have extraordinary features in promoting this function with such a big fanfare. "Maybe it's just an example he gave casually. Their game features are not the only ones."
As he was talking, Han Feng started again.
"This capture system is still in its early stages and has only completed some simple functions, but this is already very interesting." At this time, Han Feng in the camera suddenly made a few strange movements with his hands. Then, his virtual characters began to make a series of actions on the podium at this time. "For this capture system, we also have a custom action system. We can use the capture system to record our own actions, and then define specific actions by ourselves to determine the conditions for stimulating these actions..."
Han Feng gave a brief demonstration again, and then said: "This time we have cooperated with Blizzard and Westwood, and we have developed a lot of interesting things. I will introduce it to you for the time being. You will naturally find it in the specific experience process in the future..." Then, Han Feng quickly ended his speech and gave time to the two representatives of Blizzard and Westwood to speak.
When Li Wang heard Han Feng introduce the action custom system, he immediately understood the far-reaching meaning of Han Feng’s emphasis on introducing these two systems.
As a veteran gamer, he naturally played the revolutionary game console wii released by Nintendo. This game console with not very high technical content was sold out for a while, and it continued to create miracles in the history of game sales. The most important feature is that wii introduced the revolutionary technology of action sensing. Without affecting the gameplay, the wii's all-round controller completely freed players from the constraints of telecommunications and the constraints of complex buttons. The action sensing device in the controller allows players to control the game by using actions alone, opening the door to new game types and bringing players a new experience.
When Li Wang saw the motion capture system, he actually thought of wii, but his mind was still very blurred and he didn't know the connection. When he saw Han Feng being able to control the virtual characters to perform corresponding actions by just using gestures, he immediately understood that Liude Network actually used motion sensing in software!
The facial expressions were so subtle that they could capture and react smoothly, not to mention specific gestures.
Li Wang didn't know whether the corresponding hardware would be produced in the future, but he had already predicted what kind of new experience the Six Degrees game would bring to everyone.
In their speeches, representatives of Blizzard and Westwood focused on one common point, that is, they were surprised by the imagination and technology of Liudu Company. No one had thought that although Liudu Network Company's main business was not game development, they found in the specific process that Liudu Company's talents are completely in the world's leading position in this area. Moreover, they are very imaginative. When a new possible feasible idea emerges, they will discuss the new concept and quickly realize its prototype. Blizzard and Westwood said that the cooperation with Liudu Network Company was very smooth and pleasant, and the efficiency was a bit outrageous.
Han Feng accepted their praises unscrupulously. However, under his careful training and complete incentive measures, the employees of Liudu Company do not have to worry about family matters at all. The company will solve all problems for them and completely eliminate their worries. In addition, Liudu Company has discovered many top talents from all over the world during this period, which are all made with money.
After all the information was announced, the opening animations of "Six Degrees of Journey" and "Six Degrees of Battle" began to be played on the big screen. This was the first time both opening animations met the audience.
Both opening animations show the grand scenes of the game using war scenes.
What is prominent in the Six Degrees Journey is the modern high-tech war. The scene of various novel high-tech weapons erupting at the same time feasting the audience. Many weapon enthusiasts have begun to take screenshots of related weapons on the spot.
The theme of the Six Degrees of Battle with the same precedent as the previous practice of Warcraft, the scene of the orc army galloping, roaring deafeningly... Everyone remembered the scene when they were shocked by the gorgeous and majestic CG opening animation when they first played Warcraft. This feeling once again appeared in their hearts and became even stronger.
The effects of both animations are extremely excellent, at least in line with everyone's positioning for these two games. Since the current technology is much more advanced than before, these two animations are more gorgeous than before, and the 3D effect is more realistic. While everyone is shocked, they take it for granted.
However, after the two animations were played, two lines of letters finally appeared on the display, which introduced the specific time and resources spent on these two animations.
"The Six Degrees of Journey" - 195 hours.
"Six Degrees of Conquest" - 233 hours.
However, the number of people who produced these animations was less than one-third of the previous CG animation production staff, while the investment was only one-percent of the original one.
When everyone saw these two sets of data, they were truly shocked.
It took only about ten days, as well as so little manpower and material resources to produce such high-quality animations?
It was not until this time that everyone noticed the data and praises to Six Degrees that Blizzard and Westwood had just said in their previous speeches.
If the Liudu platform is really so excellent, wouldn’t it be just using this platform to shoot cg animation movies?
Those residents who love CG animation and CG designers are aware of this hidden message.
Chapter completed!
