————————

This is torture from the soul, and it is also a sharp blade that pierces the heart, Yang Jiangang was knocked out with one blow, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Zhao Jie and Yang Jiangang are definitely two wonders, once they met on a blind date website to find a girlfriend, the competition who can find it first, and then Zhao Jie found a page bug, Yang Jiangang gave the website more than a dozen suggestions on ease of use, and moved the blind date website to send him a pennant.

Chu Yuanxi smiled strangely in his heart, and pointed to the blackboard: "Let's talk about it, how are you going to counterattack?"

"I wanted to make cartoons, no, I should say that, I thought of a way to make cartoons at a very low cost. Yang Jiangang sat down again and said, "The game that Peng Fei came out of before, "Young World", do you remember?"

"You mean......" Chu Yuanxi understood a little, "You mean to make a copycat-style animation in that way?"

Juvenile World is the first mobile game after Yang Jiangang arrived at Pengfei Technology, and he personally caught the whole plot with the respect of the main planner, although Chu Yuanxi did not bring this project, but he also understood it a little.

In general, there are two kinds of plots in mobile games, the simple one is planned to configure some dialogues and rotate left and right, and the complex one is expressed by the program and the art cooperation, presenting a relatively strong audio-visual effect. For example, the artist does a good job of scripting, including the movement of characters and objects, including the sliding of the camera, etc., and assembles the program, or the program directly writes the performance process required by the plot into the code, and the artist makes some special actions to complete the plot performance.

This is not the case with "Young World", Yang Jiangang is ready to show his strength when he first arrives, and asks the program ape of the project team to make a set of editors for him, and Yang Jiangang proposes a set of plot mechanisms, and the program is realized, and then the planning can make up the plot by writing a table. Of course, special art resources still need art to be made, such as character expression changes, and so on.

This scheme makes the arrangement of the plot very flexible, which can be adjusted at any time, and it will not take up a lot of resources when it is finally packaged.

It's just that this method will seem very copycat in the process of showing a complex dynamic plot, for example, in the plot, the two immortals each ride a flying mount to escape and chase, and the chasing person has to keep hitting forward, which is difficult to be lifelike.

It's not that it's impossible, but to achieve the level of animation, it requires a lot of work from the program and the artist, providing more complex and delicate mechanics and actions to achieve this kind of plot. This is inevitable, otherwise why is the production cost of cartoons so high? However, the cost performance of this kind of work is extremely low for the game, and the entire game will basically only be used once, and the cost will not be less.

Therefore, "copycat style" is a very glaring label for the plot of this game, and the final reputation of players is not bad.

However, it is an indisputable fact that the cost has been greatly reduced, and the monthly workload of the program ape and a little cooperation of the art can meet the needs of the plot, mainly consuming the time of planning. The planner is a screenwriter, a director, or a cameraman, and Yang Jiangang spent a lot of time on this.

So what if you follow the normal process? It's basically about the same cost as making cartoons, and the high cost of cartoons is unbearable for game developers, and the sky-high price of CG animation goes without saying, even normal animation requires about 50,000 yuan per minute, and the price of making plot animation for the game is much more expensive because of the low cost performance.

Chu Yuanxi's mind quickly passed over the Tianyin consequences of "Young World", and only heard Yang Jiangang say: "My ideal is to extend this set of plot mechanisms and use them to make cartoons. Then build an animation production platform that makes animation accessible to everyone. Let all people like me who have ideas and talents but suffer from no way to achieve them have the opportunity to make their own animations and realize their own value!"

"Your great ideal is too detached from reality, isn't it?" Chu Yuanxi felt the need to say, "Not to mention anything else, the reason why you can play this set of mechanics by yourself is because you are a game planner, you are used to reading and writing tables, who can play that set of normal people?" ”

Chu Yuanxi gradually recalled how Yang Jiangang demonstrated this mechanism when he introduced it to his colleagues in the company, and that mechanism needed a complete set of tables to achieve, such as action tables, special effects tables, and dialogue tables, and finally they all needed to be written into enumeration values into the general table, so that they could be organized into a complete plot performance.

Normal people are already scratching their heads when they look at a watch, and they will go crazy when they play this.

"Diao Si has nothing, if you want to counterattack, how can you not put in some effort? Isn't there a noble bloodline who still wants to lie down and win?" Yang Jiangang said disdainfully, "How about it?"

"Have you ever thought about how to solve the art resources? Chu Yuanxi shirked, "For example, if a person wants to shoot a certain animation, he has a script, but he has no art resources, can he give him a complete set of new works?

"No, no, your logic is the opposite. Yang Jiangang knew what Chu Yuanxi thought: "It's not the creator who makes the application, and then the platform produces art resources, and then the creator makes it." This kind of process definitely doesn't work, and it can only serve a small number of people. ”

Normal people will think like this, just like a director who wants to make a movie, takes the script to find a film company, and the company thinks it is okay to shoot the filming, allocate the budget to find the actors, and organize the supporting team to start the film after saving a plate.

I only heard Yang Jiangang say: "The platform I want to do is to first accumulate a wave of basic art resources, and then let the grassroots producers learn this mechanism, and then tailor it to the resources that the library has, understand? If you need a few art resources that can greatly improve the quality of the animation but the library doesn't, then put it forward to see how to solve it." ”

"This ......" Chu Yuanxi was silent, because this brain hole was too big, and he said after a while: "Even basic art resources need a very large library, right? You mean, you need me to support you and make a batch of such art resources? Have you made a budget?"

"I've done it, but the main budget is the engine cost, and the art resources don't cost much. Yang Jiangang smiled slyly and said: "There are so many corpses in the game market, there are more than 20,000 corpses in the game team, and they are full of scrapped art resources, what a waste of this?

Chu Yuanxi's mouth was wide open, and he said in his heart, "You still don't think the copycat style is thorough enough, right?"
