414. Imminent LoveLive! Contest

As a computer game, in addition to the content, the picture quality and the convenience of downloading are undoubtedly also a key point of consideration. Although in the current 4G era, where the maximum downlink speed has reached 100Mbps - that is, 12.5MB/s - in theory, the so-called "masterpieces" of dozens of gigabytes have become more and more acceptable to people.

However, for most game manufacturers, it is better to compress the size of the game body as much as possible. Especially for visual games like galgame, in addition to the script and original art, cutscenes are undoubtedly a very important point. This is especially important in the Gate of the Destiny Stone.

Compared with the method of adding special effects to the picture used by the general galgame, the "Gate of Destiny Stone" has many special effects that are not supported by the game engine itself, and it is also quite cumbersome if you want to implement it through a program. Therefore, compared to the general galgame, its choice is to use more CG animation.

Of course, there may also be plenty of budgets, so the two development companies directly waved their hands and began to throw money at this reason?

Compared with general video formats, bink has many advantages, and here are just a few of the most important points for game production - high compression ratio, high picture quality, high audio quality, and at the same time, the requirements for the playback system are very low.

These points almost perfectly fit the requirements of a galgame in terms of CG animation. And the high compatibility of this video format also meets the platform porting problems that may occur in the future.

As I said before, Jiang Yu's "Gate of Destiny Stone" is being produced in the free galgame engine Kirikri on the market, and of course it will not support some unique special effects. Most of the things that can be achieved directly with such free game engines are simple enough to be achieved with PPT, and no matter how complex they are, they will not go beyond the category of glare, snowflakes or cherry blossoms.

If Jiang Yu wants to implement some unique functions, it is not impossible to choose to write the relevant code directly, but compared to the time spent directly using animation, it is not easy to compare. After all, his previous main research direction was not in this area. Moreover, he is still a half-- not the kind of big guy who can spend a few nights directly develop a single thought.

If you do do it, and unexpectedly, all goes well......

Then let's sincerely wish that the new fandom club "Simple Plan Softare", whose name was only confirmed not long ago, can catch up with next year's winter i~~

Ahem, let's get down to business. After thinking about this problem clearly, Jiang Yu first sent a message to Mitaka Ren, which roughly means that due to his own mistakes, the format of the video is a little problematic, but this time he will do it himself, and the video file after that will have to trouble Misaki Ueii to convert it to bink format and then send it to him Yunyun.

After sending this message, Jiang Yu immediately downloaded a popular software for converting video formats on the Internet - from the program level, the so-called video files are actually encoded frames of artificially selected or matched frames. The so-called player, from the program level, is the decoder.

From this point of view, the seemingly lofty "transformatting" is actually the process of decoding and then encoding. But now, for non-related practitioners, there are not many opportunities to use transcoding software.

After quickly installing the software, Jiang Yu selected all the video files to be converted, and then began to stupefied on the sidelines. Although it is not impossible to use a computer now, his years of experience have made him more accustomed to playing with his mobile phone or doing something else while working on a certain software that takes up a lot of running memory in the computer.

Just after he opened Twitter three times and turned it off three times in a bit of boredom, he suddenly received a message from Suino on his line.

Honoka: "Yujun Yujun! We're close to lovelive! It's time to play offline! And it's still ranked 16th!"

Jiang Yu was stunned when he saw this news, and quickly recalled "lovelive!" in his mind. News about the competition. This year's competition continues the rules of the previous one, and only the top 20 on the campus idol list can participate in the offline competition, that is, the competition that can really participate in the final evaluation.

And these days are the time to determine the final entry places. But it seems that the promotional effect of that roadside live and the song "Onder Zone" seems to be pretty good?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu couldn't help but show a heartfelt smile on his face and began to tap on the virtual keyboard on the mobile phone screen.

Tu Su: "Congratulations! After that, you should prepare well for the competition! I may not be able to help much, but if there is any difficulty, it doesn't matter if you talk to me. This is your duty as your number one fan and friend~ (laughs)."

On the other side, in the activity room of the idol club of Otonogihan Academy.

After seeing Jiang Yu's reply, Sui Naiguo also put on a brighter smile than before, raised his mobile phone with some excitement, and said loudly: "Yujun, he congratulated us!" Then, hopefully we can win the championship! ”

"Uh...... Win? ”

“…… It doesn't feel like Yujun would say it......"

"Although I'd love to see that...... But it seems a little difficult, right? ”

"Yes, yes! And there's also A-rise, the super popular campus idol that ranks first? That A-Rise?! ”

"Rin also likes this kind of flower meow!"

"I don't think there's anything wrong with that, it's all about having a goal."

"Hmph~ Cowardice before fighting is a taboo for soldiers."

"That...... It's not war, is it? ”

"Oops, hey~~ It feels interesting~ (whispering) Sure enough, whether it's outside of fate or the Pope, is it beneficial to this group?"

"Huh? What were you talking about? Hope? ”

"It's nothing~"

After a commotion, Eri Ayase took Honoka's mobile phone, glanced at the information on it a few times, and then reluctantly hid her face and said, "That's not what you mean, right?" Speaking of which, how can you decipher that meaning? ”

"Hmm......" Hono Guo wrinkled her nose and retorted, "It's not bad anyway!" Now that you've participated in the competition, you must work hard to achieve the goal of 'winning'! What's more, although the situation has improved a little now, the decision to abolish the school is only postponed, and it has not been completely abandoned, right? ”

For Sui Naiguo, who was suddenly able to speak well, Sonoda Haiwei glanced at him with some surprise, and then took over and added: "Sui Naiguo is right, although the muse has achieved certain results, but there is no guarantee that it will be able to solve the crisis of abandoning the school, everyone still has to work harder!" ”

Speaking of this, Sonoda Haiwei paused, and gestured to the leader of the muse with his eyes. This time, Sui Nao Guo unexpectedly understood the meaning of his friend, stepped forward, looked around, and said loudly: "Then, aim to win the lovelive! contest - come on!" ”

"Oh~~"×8 wants to talk about "Programmer in the Second Dimension" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
