Although Mori Xia wants to revise the release time, it is a pity that Hideaki Anno does not agree. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There is no way, Senxia's plan has to be carried out according to the original plan.

In the end, Senxia and they also made a new plan.

Lelouch's anime will start airing in July, with the first episode being an extended version, with a total of 13 episodes in the first season, and January 2000, the second half of the first season being split and broadcast, and the 14th episode also being extended.

As for the game, it will be released at the end of August.

"If you put all your heart into anime, you can put all of Musashino's power into it, and then find a way to find another animation manufacturer to work with. ”

In the animic club, Iki is evaluating their entire strategy.

"In terms of games, it should be possible to complete it in August, but the deadline is tighter than the animation. "It was Senxia who said this.

"Ah, it's only been more than half a year, and it's really hard to get it. Qianjia was also looking at the company's information.

"Anyway, is it really okay for us to do this now?" Lihua muttered, "I remember we have other jobs, right?"

If they want to devote themselves to Lelouch's production, then they will be limited to other jobs, and Animic probably doesn't have to think about developing any other games during this time.

But there are still a lot of things about the Senxia Society.

"Brother Pony's support is also a problem......"

As a good young man who is jealous and hateful and hates copycat piracy, Sen Xia feels that Brother Xiao Ma is still very promising.

QICQ's current development prospects are very good, although there is no profit point, but it is good to have someone in charge.

In addition, there is also the DW club, an 18x vest club, although there are old voids in this place who are helping, but Senxia doesn't have the spare energy to take care of that side.

"Leave it to Lao Xuan for the time being, and then let's see if we can find two more scripters......" Senxia felt that for the time being, it could only be handed over to Lao Xuan and them to do, and there was no way to do it in terms of manpower, but Lao Xuan still had connections, and Senxia had enough funds here, so in any case, there should be no problem in this regard, and Ghost Cry Street would probably be able to launch a trial version in three months.

"And then there's the animated film "The Sky of Edge". Mori Xia asked this question, "Fortunately, our side is mainly co-production, otherwise, I am afraid that things will be more troublesome." But in this case, the main thing in this area is that I need to step forward......"

This aspect of work, mainly Sen Xia himself needs to come forward, script design, story structure, speaking of which, the whole thing does not seem to be so easy to deal with.

"Well, I'll talk about personal matters later, let's talk about the club first. "Qianjia asked Mori Xia to talk about things related to the club first.

"That's nothing, it's mostly technical. "Senxia doesn't think there's anything big wrong.

"What about PrgMaker and the Mithril platform?"

Chika spoke of a place.

"I don't have any ideas for the time being, although I have a lot of ideas, but there is no way to implement them at the moment, if we can double the speed of the Internet now, I think this is quite a possibility. ”

But no.

The Japanese don't even realize that at this time, even a large eastern country with an underdeveloped network is ahead of Japan in terms of network.

Want to wait for the Internet to develop?

Two more years!

However, Mori Xia does not mean to completely abandon the Internet, he said: "The biggest development opportunity of the Mithril platform at present is in the United States, more broadly in North Rice, and then in Europe, and on the Japanese side, it should be ranked in the third tier." ”

It's still early.

This is the opinion of Mori Xia.

"So, the idea now is to set up a department and then dedicate that to that, and separate it from the games part. ”

"Well, that's fine. ”

Qianjia nodded.

After saying this, the rest of the matter is to mobilize the network.

Whether it's begging grandpa to sue grandma, or brandishing the killer trick of money, Senxia's job behind them is to find a way to pull people.

After Qianjia and the others were busy, Sen Xia came to the room on the other side.

Ichiro Kuroshima and Huang Lei are working hard here at this time.

"Ah, Mr. Xia Sen!"

After seeing Mori Xia coming, Ichiro Kuroshima stood up.

"Well, how are your engines written now?"

When the demo was shown before, although it felt pretty good, there was a situation like the game "Fire Civilization": the requirements for configuration were too high.

Originally, this demo was going to be shown on the Winter CM, but for this reason, they didn't end up with the unfinished version - because the laptop couldn't run at all......

But it doesn't matter.,Because this game is a "masterpiece" that Senxia is about to make.,Although this work can't go to the winter cm.,But it will land on the E3 game show.。

Although this year's E3 Game Show is not as good as the future E3, it is also a little famous in the industry.

On top of that, this year, from March 20th to 21st, they will be going to the Tokyo Game Show.

Well, that's right, it's the Tokyo Game Show in the future, which is said to be as famous as E3.

In 1999, the Tokyo Game Show was held twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, and in 1999, the Tokyo Game Show was held from March 20th to 21st.

The Tokyo Game Show is located at the Makuhari Messe (also known as Makuhari Messe) in Chiba Prefecture.

By the way, in the early 90s, there were a few times when IKET was held in Makuhari Mese.

"Well, it's barely done," Kuroshima exhaled with emotion after hearing Mori Xia's question, "At least now the requirements for game configuration have dropped a lot, and we have also strengthened the design of the characters' facial expressions according to your suggestion from Mr. Xia Sen." ”

When he said this, Kuroshima Ichiro's face showed a sublime and joyful expression that had finally reached it after overcoming endless darkness, and even Mori Xia felt the kind of misery coming from the other party.

"Thank you for your hard work," Mori Xia patted Ichiro Kuroshima on the shoulder, "But the work behind will probably be harder." ”

Well, although I'm very sorry for Ichiro Kuroshima, I'm afraid there will be a lot more work behind them.

There's no way, who called Ichiro Kuroshima They are social animals, since they are social animals, they can only work quickly......

After talking to Kuroshima Ichiro, Kuroshima Ichiro called Huang Lei over.

"We've put a lot of effort into this aspect of the revisions, mainly to optimize the modeling and textures. We've removed a lot of the model's textures to save space - mainly in the scene, of course. ”

One of the things that 3D games can't do without is modeling and textures.

The so-called texture, this is the appearance of the object, for example, there is a beautiful car in the game, the pattern and texture on the car, is the texture, if the texture is removed, the player may see, is a pink or gray model, or the whole car will directly "disappear", as for whether it disappears or becomes something else, this is determined according to the game engine and the game's calling mechanism.

Using textures makes the graphics look very beautiful, but one of the problems with this is that as you add more textures, the game itself gets more and more stuck.

Generally speaking, a model is about one sticker, but some beginners will give a model a dozen stickers to achieve the effect of a sticker, and these beginners make things, which will make the resource call very large, so that the whole picture becomes stuck.

"In order to optimize, we removed all the unnecessary textures and directly filled the graphics with commands, which is not satisfactory, but after full optimization, we can save at least half of the resources. ”

Huang Lei wiped his sweat as he spoke, about this matter, he also communicated with the domestic side, but the fire civilization has received investment from Intel, they think that as long as this game can make Pentium 3 playable, it would be good, and optimization is time-consuming and laborious, there is no need at all.

After some exchanges, Huang Lei knew that he could only rely on himself for everything.

Although the graphics of the game are beautiful, but the game resources consumed are also very large, and in the end, everyone's computer can't play, so it's not interesting.

Because of the limited time, Huang Lei did not have the ability to make large-scale changes to the engine, and at this time, he could only make corrections where he could think of them, the most critical of which was the "bones", "models" and "textures" in the game.

"I just let the system generate the color blocks and graphics, and although it will be a lot of work, at least the results are good. ”

Although making a 3D model requires a texture, this is not absolute, the real master, when making a 3D model, you can directly use the system command, let the system directly "fill" the shape on the model.

To use an inappropriate analogy, it's as if someone used PS to draw a picture on a blank piece of paper and spent an hour of their time, while another person, who directly used the in-game paint bucket tool, or the brush tool, clicked the mouse, and a color block and pattern appeared.

So, the amount of resources consumed in a dozen textures and without a texture, which is completely different.

"And then for the model, I tried to simplify it as much as possible, and we optimized it all, and these are all done in places that players rarely see, or can't see, and have little impact on the picture. ”

In the rebellious Lelouxiu, there are many scenes and patterns, and Huang Lei has optimized his models one by one.

In the model, there is a concept of "face", which can be understood as Steve in "Minecraft" and the nano display of Crysis, the former is a six-sided hexahedron, and the latter is a person composed of countless surfaces.

Huang Lei: They have optimized the model in this regard.

Because the character itself is realized using a 2D picture that imitates 3D, it does not occupy much resources, but 2DLIVE is not omnipotent, and there are still many places where it is necessary to use 3D.

"In terms of characters, we modified the display effect, and in the long shot, we used the 2DLIVE technology developed by Xia Sen, and then when the player switched to a close-up view, or when the picture was calculated in real time, it switched to 3D. "This idea was thought of by Huang Lei, he felt that he was quite creative in this place, so he took it out and told Senxia about it," I originally wanted to use GIF pictures instead, but when GIF images are called, clarity is a problem, and when using the image substitution method, the characters' movements will be incoherent, and when the screen is transferred, it will also be full of disobedience, so I used 2DLIVE to smooth the whole movement process of the characters. ”

Huang Lei turned on his computer, and then showed Sen Xia, he continued while demonstrating: "And switch to a close-up scene, there are fewer objects that can be displayed in the picture, and the system can use more resources, at this time, we can turn the character back into a 3D model, and the player can watch it at close range." When cutting the mirror, the player will not pay attention to the sense of disobedience. ”

When the picture is small, 2DLIVE can fool the past, but after the picture becomes larger, a small deformation can easily distort the picture, so it is necessary to switch 3D in close view.

"What about the characters' expressions?"

Facial expressions are a very important part.

In Future 3D, which mainly refers to the group of people who are mainly Korean games, most of the emphasis is on the body and modeling of the characters, and in their opinion, it seems that the facial expressions of the characters are not important.

But Senxia's idea is not like this, he thinks that whether the facial expression is vivid or not, this is a very necessary place - there are other places that can be reduced, only here, it is absolutely uncompromising.

And Sen Xia is also very justified in this, because he knows that there is a game manufacturer who plays with the facial expressions of the characters almost superbly. And the name of this game manufacturer is called "Blizzard".

Yes, Senxia is here in the fine tradition of participating in the (mountain) test (village) of my great blizzard......

......

The optimization process is to consult the solution of professionals, non-data copy and paste, and it is also feasible in reality, but the words are magical, there may be some inaccuracies, so you don't have to care about these small problems.
