specifically, the server analyzes the second loading instruction and reloads the cloud game to the third picture according to the second loading instruction.

And S603, sending the data corresponding to the third picture to the second terminal so that the second terminal displays the third picture.

Specifically, the server sends data (such as video stream data) corresponding to the third picture to the second terminal through the network after video coding, so that the second terminal decodes and renders the data corresponding to the third picture, and displays a picture rendered by the server, that is, the third picture, on the second terminal.

It is to be understood that steps S601-S603 are for enabling the user/player to return to the third screen to reselect the archive after selecting the archive (first target archive) in the third screen and previewing the archived task content in the second screen.

Referring to fig. 7, in an embodiment of the present invention (when the archive loading manner is the random loading manner), after step S1052, the archive sharing method for cloud games further includes the following steps:

s701, acquiring the second loading instruction;

s702, returning to the step S1051 according to the second loading instruction.

It is understood that steps S701-S702 are used to enable the user/player to obtain an archive (first target archive) by random loading and to return to re-randomly select the archive after previewing the archived task content on the second screen.

Step S1054, loading the cloud game to the first screen according to the first loading instruction.

Specifically, according to the first load instruction received in step S1053, the server parses the first load instruction, and loads the cloud game to the first screen.

And S106, sending the data corresponding to the first picture to the second terminal so that the second terminal can display the first picture.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the server sends data (e.g., video stream data) corresponding to the first picture after video coding to the second terminal through the network, so that the second terminal decodes and renders the data corresponding to the first picture, and displays the picture rendered by the server, that is, the first picture, on the second terminal.

According to the steps S101 to S106, in the archive sharing method for cloud game in the embodiment of the present invention, by analyzing the archive request initiated by the first terminal, the corresponding archive data is stored in the task pool of the server, and when the archive sharing request initiated by the second terminal is received, the archive set is obtained from the task pool according to the archive sharing information requested by the second terminal, and the first target archive is loaded from the archive set according to the archive loading manner, so that the second terminal displays the first picture of the cloud game after the first target archive is loaded, thereby implementing a more convenient and flexible archive sharing manner between cloud game users, improving interactivity between cloud game users, meeting the interaction requirements of the cloud game users, and improving the game experience of the cloud game users.

Taking a first terminal as a terminal (terminal A for short) held by a user A, a second terminal as a terminal (terminal B for short) held by a user B, and game task types including adventure types, strategy types, card types, shooting types and sport types as examples, based on the sharing method of the embodiment of the invention, a specific application embodiment is provided, which mainly comprises the following steps
