Referring to fig. 1, a schematic structural diagram of a terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 1, the terminal includes a main board 110, an external input/output device 120, a memory 130, an external interface 140, a touch system 150, and a power supply 160.

The main board 110 has integrated therein processing elements such as a processor and a controller.

The external input/output device 120 may include a display component (e.g., a display screen), a sound playing component (e.g., a speaker), a sound collecting component (e.g., a microphone), various keys, and the like.

The memory 130 has program codes and data stored therein.

The touch system 150 may be integrated into a display component or a key of the external input/output device 120, and the touch system 150 is used to detect a trigger operation performed by a user on the display component or the key.

The power supply 160 is used to power the various other components in the terminal.

In the embodiment of the present application, the processor in the main board 110 may generate a virtual scene by executing or calling the program code and data stored in the memory, and expose the generated virtual scene through the external input/output device 120. In the process of displaying the virtual scene, a trigger operation executed when the user interacts with the virtual scene may be detected by the capacitive touch system 150.

For example, please refer to fig. 2, which illustrates a schematic diagram of an appearance customization interface provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, the virtual item selection interface includes a virtual item display area 20 and a custom control area 21, where the virtual item display area 20 may include a virtual item type selection control 201 and a virtual item model display area 202, and the custom control area 21 may include a custom control 211.

When the user triggers the custom control 211 in the custom control area 21, the appearance element corresponding to the custom control 211 can be displayed in the virtual item model display area 202 in the virtual item display area 20.

In a possible implementation manner, the appearance customization interface may be an operation interface for customizing the appearance of the owned virtual prop by a user viewing the owned virtual prop in a backpack, or may be an operation interface for customizing the appearance of all the virtual props by a user viewing an equipment picture.

Please refer to fig. 3, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a process of displaying a virtual item in a virtual scene according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Wherein, the method can be executed by a computer device, and the computer device can be a terminal. As shown in fig. 3, the computer device may present the virtual item by performing the following steps.

Step 31, displaying a virtual scene picture, wherein the virtual scene picture is a picture of the virtual scene observed at a viewing angle corresponding to the first virtual object.

In a possible implementation manner, taking a terminal to display the virtual scene picture as an example, the virtual scene picture is a picture in a program interface displayed when the terminal runs a virtual scene application program; the first virtual object is a virtual object controlled by a user through a terminal, or in other words, the first virtual object is a virtual object corresponding to a currently logged-in user account in a virtual scene application program run by the terminal.

Step 32, in response to that the distance between a second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than a first distance threshold, obtaining a custom appearance parameter of a first virtual prop from a server, wherein the first virtual prop is a virtual prop equipped with the second virtual object; the customized appearance parameter is used for indicating the customized appearance effect of the user on the virtual prop.

In a possible implementation manner, the first distance threshold is a distance threshold preset by a developer or a maintenance person.

Optionally, the first distance threshold is a user-defined distance threshold. For example, when the terminal runs the virtual scene application, a distance threshold setting interface may be presented, the user may perform a distance threshold setting operation in the distance threshold setting interface, and accordingly, the terminal sets the first distance threshold in response to the distance threshold setting operation.

Step 33, in response to the second virtual object being in the virtual scene picture, displaying the first virtual item equipped on the second virtual object in the virtual scene picture according to the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual object.

In one possible implementation, in response to the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene being greater than or equal to the first distance threshold, the computer device does not perform the step of obtaining the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual prop from the server.

For example, please refer to fig. 4, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a trigger for obtaining a custom appearance parameter according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 4, in the virtual scene 42 presented by the terminal 41, there are a virtual object 42a, a virtual object 42b, and a virtual object 42c, where the virtual object 42a is a virtual object controlled by the terminal 41, and the virtual object 42b and the virtual object 42c are virtual objects controlled by other terminals, respectively. In fig. 4, the area 42d around the virtual object 42a is a circular area with a radius of a first distance threshold, the virtual object 42b is within the area 42d, i.e. the distance between the virtual object 42b and the virtual object 42a is smaller than the first distance threshold, and the virtual object 42c is outside the area 42d, i.e. the distance between the virtual object 42c and the virtual object 42a is larger than the first distance threshold; at this time, the terminal 41 acquires the custom appearance parameters of the virtual item equipped with the virtual object 42b from the server 43, without acquiring the custom appearance parameters of the virtual item equipped with the virtual object 42c from the server 43. Taking a game scene as an example, the range of some game scenes is very large, and accordingly, there are many virtual objects (for example, hundreds) in the game scene, and in one game, for a certain player, the number of other objects within a certain range (for example, a circular range with a radius equal to a first distance threshold) that can be close to the virtual object controlled by the player is usually not too many, and with the solution shown in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal of the player only needs to obtain the customized appearance parameters corresponding to a small number of other virtual objects from the server, and does not need to obtain the customized appearance parameters corresponding to all other virtual objects in the virtual scene.

To sum up, in the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present application, by displaying the virtual scene picture, when the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than the first distance threshold, the user-defined appearance parameter of the first virtual prop is obtained from the server, and when the second virtual object is in the virtual scene picture, the first virtual prop equipped on the second virtual object is displayed in the virtual scene picture according to the user-defined appearance parameter of the first virtual object, so that the terminal obtains the user-defined appearance parameters of other virtual objects when the other virtual objects meet the specified conditions, the data volume of obtaining the user-defined appearance parameters by the terminal is reduced, and the network traffic of the terminal is saved.

Through the scheme shown in fig. 3, when the terminal displays the virtual scene, the display process of the virtual item equipped to other virtual objects can be as shown in fig. 4. Please refer to fig. 5, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a process of displaying a virtual item in a virtual scene according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 5, a terminal (for example, the terminal shown in fig. 1) running an application corresponding to the virtual item may display the virtual item by performing the following steps.

Step 51, displaying a virtual scene picture, wherein the virtual scene picture observes the picture of the virtual scene at a viewing angle corresponding to the first virtual object.

Step 52, in response to that the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is greater than or equal to the first distance threshold, displaying the first virtual item equipped on the second virtual object in the virtual scene picture according to the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual item.

Step 53, in response to that the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than the first distance threshold, displaying the first virtual item equipped on the second virtual object in the virtual scene picture according to default appearance parameters.

To sum up, in the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present application, by displaying the virtual scene picture, when the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than the first distance threshold, the virtual prop equipped with the second virtual object is displayed according to the customized appearance parameter corresponding to the second virtual object, and when the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object is not smaller than the first distance threshold, the virtual prop equipped with the second virtual object is displayed according to the default appearance parameter, so that the terminal obtains the customized appearance parameters of other virtual objects when the other virtual objects meet the specified conditions, the data volume of obtaining the customized appearance parameters by the terminal is reduced, and the network traffic of the terminal is saved.

Please refer to fig. 6, which shows a flowchart of a method for displaying a virtual item in a virtual scene according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Wherein, the method can be executed by a computer device, and the computer device can be a terminal. As shown in fig. 6, taking the computer device as a terminal as an example, the terminal may display the virtual item by performing the following steps.

Step 601, displaying an appearance self-defining interface.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when entering a game application program with a virtual item display scene, a trigger operation may be performed according to a user-defined requirement on the appearance of a virtual item, so as to display an interface for performing appearance definition on the virtual item.

The appearance customized interface can comprise a virtual prop display area and a customized control area; the virtual prop display area may be used to display a model of a second virtual prop, and the custom control area may include custom controls of various appearance elements.

The appearance self-defining interface can be an editing interface for presetting the appearance of the virtual prop by each user before entering the game-play state.

In a possible implementation manner, the virtual item display area may include a trigger control for selecting a second virtual item type, and when a trigger operation on the trigger control corresponding to the second virtual item of the designated type is received, a model of the second virtual item of the designated type may be displayed in the virtual item display area.

In one possible implementation, the appearance element in the custom control area may include at least one of a ground color filled in a designated area on the model of the second virtual prop, a ground pattern filled in the designated area, and a pattern of a decal on the surface of the model of the second virtual prop.

When the user triggers the designated area on the model of the second virtual prop, the user can determine to perform the next operation on the designated area, and if the user selects the corresponding custom control in the custom control area, when the selected custom control is the filling of the ground color or the ground pattern, the designated area can be filled with the ground color or the ground pattern corresponding to the custom control.

For example, please refer to fig. 7, which illustrates an interface diagram of a ground color filling according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown in fig. 7, by performing a trigger operation on the control 71 corresponding to the grip area of the virtual weapon model, a ground color may be filled in the grip area 72, and a custom control corresponding to a desired ground color, for example, a custom control corresponding to blue, is selected in the custom control area, and after the selection operation is completed, the grip area 72 of the virtual weapon model may be filled with blue ground color.

Please refer to fig. 8, which illustrates an interface diagram of a shading filling according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown in fig. 8, by performing a trigger operation on a control 71 corresponding to a grip region of the virtual weapon model, a shading may be filled in the region 72, and a required shading, which may be a blue dot shading, is selected in the user-defined control region, and after the selection operation is completed, the grip region of the virtual weapon model may be filled with the blue dot shading.

Alternatively, please refer to fig. 9, which illustrates an interface diagram of a shading integral filling according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown in fig. 9, when the shading filling is selected to be performed on the whole of the virtual weapon model, the control 91 corresponding to the whole of the virtual weapon model may be triggered, and when the blue dot shading is selected in the custom control area, and when the specific filling area is designated as the whole model, the blue dot shading filling may be performed on the whole model of the virtual weapon.

Step 602, in response to the selection operation of all or part of the at least two customizable components, determining the target component with customized appearance.

The model of the second virtual prop may include the at least two customizable components.

In a possible implementation manner, a selection function of the appearance-customized component is provided for the user, that is, the user determines to perform appearance customization on one or more components through a selection operation of the customized component in the model of the second virtual prop, and the component selected by the user is the target component.

For example, taking the example that the virtual item is a virtual gun in a game scene, the virtual gun includes three customizable components, namely a stock, a gun body receiver and a gun handle. In one possible implementation, the user determines that the appearance is customized as a whole with the full gun by selecting all three customizable components; in another possible implementation, the user determines to individually customize the appearance of a component by selecting any one of the stock, the body receiver, and the grip.

Step 603, in response to the selection operation of the target custom control, overlaying an appearance element corresponding to the target custom control on the model of the second virtual prop.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when a selection operation of a target custom control in the custom control area is received, appearance elements corresponding to the target custom controls may be superimposed on a model of a second virtual item displayed in the virtual item display area.

In one possible implementation manner, in response to a selection operation on a target custom control, and an appearance element corresponding to the target custom control is a filling shading, the filling shading corresponding to the target custom control is superimposed on a target component.

The appearance elements corresponding to the target custom controls can be different, and the selection operation of the target custom controls can be performed at least once.

In a possible implementation manner, when the appearance element corresponding to the target custom control includes a filling shading and a filling ground color, in order to superimpose the filling shading and the filling ground color into a target component, it is necessary to obtain an initial color value of each model vertex data in an editing region where the target component is superimposed in an initial model of the virtual prop, and then obtain the filling shading and the filling ground color, multiply the filling shading superimposed on the initial color value of each corresponding model vertex data by a color value of the filling ground color, and determine a corresponding filling effect in the editing region of each superimposed target component.

For example, when the virtual prop is a virtual weapon, the color of the vertex data of the body area of the initial model of the virtual weapon is red, the color of the vertex data of the stock area is green, and the color of the vertex data of the grip area is blue, if the filling shading used in three different areas is different, the filling effect in the area needs to superpose the color value of the vertex data and the filling shading used in the area, and then multiply the filling color value used in the area, and the customized filling shading and the filling shading can be realized by changing the filling shading used in the area and the filling color value used in the area.

Please refer to fig. 10, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a calculation of filling ground color and filling ground tint according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown in fig. 10, the vertex data color value 1001 is a red area and the vertex data color value 1001 is a blue area, the used filling color values 1003 are all white (255, 255, 255), it can be obtained through calculation that the custom ground color in the two areas should be consistent with the pattern color of the filling ground tint 1002, the used filling color value 1003 in the area with the vertex data color value green is blue (34, 30, 255), and the custom ground color in the area with the vertex data color value 1001 green can be obtained through calculation that the custom ground color in the area with the vertex data color value green is blue, because the filling ground tint 1002 used in the area with the vertex data color value green 1001 is a striped pattern, the area becomes a blue striped pattern, and finally, the effect 1004 of overlaying the color values is displayed on the virtual prop model.

In another possible implementation manner, in response to a selection operation on the target custom control, and an appearance element corresponding to the target custom control is a target pattern, the target pattern is displayed in a superimposed manner on the model of the second virtual prop, and the pattern adjustment control adjusts the target pattern in response to an adjustment operation performed on the pattern adjustment control.

When the appearance element corresponding to the target custom control comprises a target pattern, and after the target custom control is selected, the target pattern corresponding to the target custom control can be superposed on the virtual prop model in the virtual prop display area, and the pattern adjusting control for adjusting the target pattern can adjust the pattern through adjusting the pattern adjusting control, so that the target pattern can be adjusted.

Wherein the adjustment operation comprises at least one of a size scaling operation, a position adjustment operation, and a pose adjustment operation.

For example, the adjusting of the target pattern may include at least one of a rotation angle of rotating the target pattern, a change of transparency of the target pattern, an adjustment of a size of the target pattern, and an adjustment of a degree of offset of a texture in the target pattern.

For example, please refer to fig. 11, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a target pattern overlay interface according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown in fig. 11, when a smiling face pattern is selected as a target pattern in a custom control, a smiling face pattern 1103 that can be adjusted and also can be deleted can be generated in a virtual prop display area, the position and size of the smiling face pattern can be adjusted by dragging a moving control 1102 at the lower right corner, and the smiling face pattern can be deleted by touching a control 1101 at the upper left corner.

In a possible implementation mode, generating mapping coordinate (UV) information of the virtual prop model, when a target user-defined control is selected, projecting and updating the UV information into the mapping coordinate information according to a rotation angle, a transparency, a size and a texture offset set by an adjusting operation, displaying an adjusted target pattern on the virtual prop model according to the mapping coordinate information, and displaying the superimposed target pattern on the virtual prop model through the same mapping process.

For example, please refer to fig. 12, which illustrates a schematic diagram of superimposing a target pattern by map coordinates according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown in fig. 12, superimposed decal parameters 1202 such as the rotation angle, transparency, size, and texture offset of the decal picture smiley face 1201 are changed by an adjustment operation, the decal picture smiley face is mapped on corresponding decal coordinates (UV)1203 according to these values, and a superimposed smiley face pattern 1204 is displayed on the virtual item model according to the mapped decal coordinates.

In another possible implementation manner, by using a manner that two rendering targets are alternately drawn, one of the rendering targets is used for overlaying the pattern and is arranged on the material of the virtual prop, the other rendering target is used for recording the drawing result of the previous time, and the next time of overlaying is performed, the two rendering targets are alternately used, so that the overlaying effect of the target pattern is realized.

In addition, in response to the user-defined finishing operation and the existence of the pattern with at least two overlapped areas on the model of the second virtual prop, combining the pattern with at least two overlapped areas into a single combined pattern; and adding a custom control corresponding to the combined pattern in the custom control area.

Wherein, the single combined pattern can be formed by combining and superposing according to at least one basic figure.

Wherein the basic pattern may be at least one of a rectangle, a triangle, and a circle.

For example, please refer to fig. 13, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a combined pattern generation according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown in fig. 13, after four circular patterns with different colors are combined and superimposed, it may be determined that the generated pattern of the target component is a pattern 1301 similar to a bulls-eye, the bulls-eye pattern 1301 may be one of decal patterns and stored in a decal pattern library, and the bulls-eye pattern may be superimposed on a virtual prop model currently performing appearance customization by selecting a trigger control 1302 corresponding to the bulls-eye pattern.

In one possible implementation, the single combined pattern is formed by combining and superposing a preset target pattern and at least one basic pattern.

Wherein, the data corresponding to the single combined pattern can be stored in the database for storing the target pattern data, or can also be stored in the memory.

Step 604, in response to the custom completion operation, generating a custom appearance parameter of the second virtual item according to the appearance element superimposed on the model of the second virtual item.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when appearance customization is completed, the terminal may obtain fixed data of an appearance element corresponding to a control performing selection operation and data performing desired adjustment, and generate a customized appearance parameter.

The customized appearance parameters can be used for constructing a customized model of the virtual prop.

Step 605, uploading the customized appearance parameters of the second virtual item to a server.

In this embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal may upload the customized appearance parameters corresponding to the customized second virtual item to the appearance customization server.

The appearance self-defining server can be a hall server, and the hall server is used for providing a server with background support for the virtual scene matching service.

In a possible implementation manner, the model of the customized virtual prop constructed by the customized appearance parameters can be stored in the server for the user to query and set at any time.

For example, please refer to fig. 14, which shows a schematic interface diagram generated by a customization scheme according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown in fig. 14, the virtual weapon model after the target pattern is superimposed may be stored as scheme 1, and when the user performs touch operation on the trigger control 1401 corresponding to scheme 1, the terminal may directly invoke the custom appearance parameters in scheme 1 to construct the virtual weapon model into the custom appearance 1302 corresponding to scheme 1.

For example, the customized appearance of the virtual prop edited by the user in the hall interface may be converted into data to be uploaded to the server, the data of N parts are required for the ground color and the ground pattern data, the data of the applique needs to occupy a large amount of data, and the specific occupied amount of data may be as shown in table 1 below.

Data field	Numerical value	Type (B)	Size and breadth
				Applique ID
	1001	int32	4 bytes
				Color value ID	1	int8	1 byte
Rotate	0.0	float	4 bytes
				Transparency	1.0	float	4 bytes
Zoom	(4.0，4.0)	float2	8 bytes
				Texture migration	(16.0，8.0)	float2	8 bytes

TABLE 1

From the above data amount, the data amount required for one decal is calculated to be 4+1+4+4+8+8 ≈ 29 (byte), and if there are 30 decals, the required data amount is 29 × 30 ≈ 870 (byte) ≈ 0.84KB

In one possible implementation, the request for data from the lobby server may be via the TCP protocol.

Step 606, showing the virtual scene picture.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal may display the virtual scene picture in the battle process of the application program by receiving an operation instruction of a user, where the virtual scene picture is a picture of a virtual scene observed at a viewing angle corresponding to the first virtual object.

Wherein, a first virtual object and a second virtual object can be included in the virtual scene picture, wherein the second virtual object can be other virtual objects except the first virtual object. The first virtual object and the second virtual object may be equipped with virtual props and may be presented in a virtual scene.

Referring to fig. 15, a schematic diagram of a lobby preparation interface according to an embodiment of the present application is shown; in one possible implementation, the virtual scene is a lobby preparation picture as described in fig. 15, or a picture during a battle.

The user-defined virtual props of the prepared pictures in the hall can be displayed.

Step 607, in response to the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene being less than the first distance threshold, querying the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual item in the local buffer.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, in the battle process, when it is acquired that the distance of the second virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than the first distance threshold, the terminal corresponding to the first virtual object queries whether the terminal has the custom appearance parameter of the first virtual item in the local buffer.

Wherein the first virtual item may be a virtual item of a second virtual object equipment; the customized appearance parameters may be used to indicate the user's customized appearance effect on the virtual prop.

For example, when the first distance threshold is preset to be 5m, in a virtual scene of the user a, a virtual object operated by the user a is taken as a circular point and is taken as a circle with a radius of 5m, and if it is detected that other virtual objects appear in the circular area, whether custom appearance parameters corresponding to virtual props held by the other virtual objects are cached locally or not is queried in a terminal used by the user a.

In one possible implementation manner, when the distance between the first virtual object and the second virtual object in the virtual scene within a period of time is smaller than the first distance threshold, the local cache of the first virtual object may store the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual item.

In one possible implementation manner, in response to the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual item being queried in the local cache, the first virtual item equipped on the second virtual object is displayed in the virtual scene picture according to the customized appearance parameter being queried locally.

Step 608, in response to that the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual item is not queried in the local buffer, obtaining the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual item from the server.

In a possible implementation manner, the terminal obtains the identifier of the first virtual item from the virtual scene server.

The virtual scene server is a server for providing background support for the virtual scene.

The identification of the virtual item may include an identification of a virtual object holding the virtual item and a type identification of the virtual item.

That is, the identification of the first virtual item may include an identification of the second virtual object and an identification of the item type of the first virtual item.

For example, the identifier of the first virtual item may include an identifier of the second virtual object, the identifier of the second virtual object may include an account number, a name, and the like of the second virtual object, and the type of the first virtual item may include an identifier of a model, a name, and the like.

In one possible implementation, the corresponding custom appearance parameters may be different for the same type of virtual weapon for different virtual objects; for the same kind of virtual weapon of the same virtual object, the corresponding customized appearance parameters may be one or more fixed.

In a possible implementation manner, the customized appearance parameters of the first virtual item are obtained from the appearance customized server through the identifier of the first virtual item.

The appearance self-defining server can be a server for providing background support for the appearance effect self-defining function of the virtual prop. The appearance self-defining server can also be a hall server and is used for providing a server with background support for the virtual scene matching service.

In a possible implementation manner, in response to that the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than a first distance threshold and larger than a second distance threshold, the customized filling shading parameter of the first virtual prop is obtained from the server.

For example, in the course of fighting, when the distance between the first virtual object and the second virtual object is within the specified range, the picture of the first virtual item displayed in the virtual scene of the first virtual object is small, and if the detailed pattern on the first virtual item is displayed, the display is unclear, and the picture of the virtual scene is not affected much, so that in order to save traffic, the detailed pattern on the first virtual item does not need to be obtained, and only the filling shading of the first virtual item needs to be displayed. Therefore, when the actual distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than the first distance threshold, the first virtual object can obtain part of the customized appearance parameters, and when the actual distance is judged to be larger than the second distance threshold, the customized filling shading parameters of the first virtual prop can be obtained from the server.

In one possible implementation manner, in response to that the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than or equal to the second distance threshold, the custom pattern parameter of the first virtual prop is obtained from the server.

For example, in the course of fighting, when the distance between the first virtual object and the second virtual object is within the designated range, the picture of the first virtual item displayed in the virtual scene of the first virtual object is large, and the detail pattern on the first virtual item needs to be displayed, so that the parameter corresponding to the detail pattern on the first virtual item needs to be obtained to display the detail pattern of the first virtual item and the filling shading of the first virtual item needs to be displayed. Therefore, when the actual distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than or equal to the second distance threshold, the first virtual object can obtain all the customized appearance parameters, and when the actual distance is judged to be smaller than or equal to the second distance threshold, the customized filling shading parameters and the customized pattern parameters of the first virtual prop can be obtained from the server.

The customized appearance parameters comprise at least one of customized filling shading parameters and customized pattern parameters; the user-defined filling shading parameter is used for indicating filling shading superposed on the model surface of the virtual prop; the custom pattern parameter is used to indicate a pattern superimposed on the filled shading of the virtual prop.

In another possible implementation manner, in response to that the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is greater than or equal to the first distance threshold, and the second virtual object is in the virtual scene picture, the first virtual item equipped on the second virtual object is displayed in the virtual scene picture according to the default appearance parameter of the first virtual item.

For example, in the battle process, when the distance between the first virtual object and the second virtual object is within the designated range, the first virtual item may be displayed in the virtual scene of the first virtual object, but the displayed picture of the first virtual item is extremely small, and it is not necessary to display the detail pattern on the first virtual item and fill the shading, so in order to save the flow, when the actual distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is greater than or equal to the first distance threshold, the first virtual object may display the first virtual item according to the default appearance parameter of the first virtual item.

And step 609, storing the user-defined appearance parameters of the first virtual prop acquired from the server into a local cache.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal may store part or all of the customized appearance parameters in a local cache, so as to query the corresponding customized appearance parameters according to the first virtual item identifier next time.

The customized appearance parameters can comprise customized filling shading parameters and customized pattern parameters.

For example, please refer to fig. 16, which shows a flowchart of virtual item display in a battle process according to an embodiment of the present application; please refer to fig. 16, which illustrates a flowchart of displaying virtual items during a battle according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 16, during the battle, player 1 and player 2 are present. When the player 1 does not hold the gun in the fighting process, the player 2 holds the gun with the customized appearance, in the virtual scene corresponding to the player 2, the player 2 can synchronize the data of the weapon carried by the player 2 through the combat server to obtain the appearance parameters corresponding to the customized gun, wherein the data of the weapon may be refreshed by player 2 when acquiring the weapon during the battle (S1601), when player 2 enters the synchronous visual field range of player 1, the combat server synchronizes the weapon data of player 2 to player 1 (S1602), and when player 1 receives the weapon data of player 2, it requests the weapon self-defining appearance parameters of player 2 to the lobby server (S1603), and when player 1 requests the weapon self-defining appearance parameters of player 2 to the lobby server, whether the local cache data can be directly used is judged according to whether the local client has weapon self-defining appearance parameters of the cache player 2 (S1604). When the customized appearance parameters of player 2 are synchronized to player 1, the weapon customized appearance effect of player 2 is shown on the client of player 1.

To sum up, the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present application displays the virtual scene picture, obtains the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual prop from the server when the distance between the second virtual object and the first virtual object in the virtual scene is smaller than the first distance threshold, and displays the first virtual prop equipped on the second virtual object in the virtual scene picture according to the customized appearance parameter of the first virtual object when the second virtual object is in the virtual scene picture, so that the terminal can display the customized appearance virtual prop when meeting the specified conditions, the data size of the terminal obtaining the customized appearance parameter is reduced, and the network traffic of the terminal is saved.
