Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention allows a player to freely adjust the characteristics of a magical attack expressed by using a general game device by a simple operation of an input device. The present invention relates to a control method for a battle-type fighting action game apparatus, which enables real-time confirmation of even the attack contents, and a readable recording medium recording a battle-type fighting action game program using the control method.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Today, a plurality of unique characters appear, and a character selected by a player competes with a character selected by a computer or another player.
Competitive fighting action games are gaining popularity.
The characters that appear have their own special technique, and the game proceeds in a tentative basic flow, in which the game is decided by how to avoid the opponent's attack and decide the own technique. The way to play is relatively simple and easy to understand, and anyone can easily enter it. However, the technical level of the inside is generally high, and real-time property and high quality of computer graphic and sound are required. In addition, recently, a fighting action game in which realistic motion of a character is expressed by using a motion capture technology that samples the actual motion of a person or an animal has appeared, and it is very popular. In these battle-type fighting action games, different tricks are assigned in advance to combinations of various button information from the input device pressed within a predetermined time, and button input is performed according to the combination. Is to express a target technique such as "throw" or "kick".

Although it is not a battle-type fighting action game, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-215859, an invention is assigned to each button of the input device to reduce operation mistakes, and a pitch is set in advance for each button. An invention is disclosed in which a button is pressed to perform a performance after selecting a tone color.

Further, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-239149 discloses an invention in which an identification symbol for identifying a pressed button is lit and displayed, and at the same time, an identification sound is output for the purpose of mastering the operation procedure of the button of the input device. There is.

Further, in the fighting type fighting action game, when a character performs a technique, there is no one that reads out aloud the names of concrete constituent elements constituting the technique.

[0006]

However, this has the following drawbacks. It is good that you can use the intended technique by pressing a predetermined button and you can attack, but on the other hand you can not add subtle changes to that technique, so you have freedom as a game It has a drawback that the expression is low and the expression is easily tired.

Further, in the systems of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-215859 and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-239149, in which the voice corresponding to the button is played back as it is, the playback is started immediately after the button is pressed. In a fighting action game, when a character accompanies a motion (motion) when attacking, it is more natural for the sound to be played back according to a change in the image, and when switching a plurality of animations as in the present invention, the The present invention is superior to the present invention because it can be realized in any system that reproduces the voice corresponding to the control command to be executed. vice versa,
If a system that reproduces the sound corresponding to the button as it is is used in such a battle-type fighting action game, it does not match the image change at all, so it can be said that it is a fatal drawback.

Further, the basic way of playing the fighting type fighting action game is how to avoid the attack of the opponent and apply the attack of oneself to the opponent. However, unlike the conventional one, only the appearance is used without using voice. In terms of expression, it is difficult to realize one way of fun that is unique to competitive fighting action games, which is to judge what the opponent is doing next, look ahead of the opponent's technique, and take action by themselves. It can be said that it lacks the fun of.

Therefore, according to the present invention, the characteristic of the magical attack expressed can be freely adjusted by a simple operation of the input device, and the detailed attack contents of the opponent as well as the own attack can be confirmed in real time by voice. An object of the present invention is to provide a control method of a fighting type fighting action game apparatus and a readable recording medium recording a fighting type fighting action game program using the control method.

[0011]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Fig. 2 is a schematic block diagram of the entire control, Fig. 3 is a plan view of the input device (2), and Fig. 4 is a conceptual diagram.
A schematic flow chart is shown in FIGS. 5, 6 and 7. In the battle-type fighting action game taken up here, various unique techniques that each character plays are called “magic”. “Magic” has various attributes such as “flame”, “water”, and “thunder”. In addition, the control command to be executed is called "magic parameter", and these are 3 "speed", "force", and "diffusion".
Means different magical components of one property. The temporary storage area of the data table showing the input reception status created on the storage memory (3) is called a "magic parameter register" and is shown in FIG. Although the data table can also be shown by a byte string, in the present embodiment, the input reception status is shown by turning on / off the bit string. And the □ button (41) is “speed”, and the Δ button (42).
Different magic parameters are made to correspond to the respective buttons of the input device (2) in advance, such as “force” and “o” button (43) “diffusion”.

Further, the magical firing by the character is executed through a maximum of three stages of animation. As the animation data used at this time, it is desirable to use the coordinate data of the real movement obtained by the motion capture, not the coordinate data calculated or artificially arranged. The period during which the reception of the input information is accepted is called "charge" as the magic preparation period. While charging, the character makes an attempt to apply magic according to the animation data selected at that time. The process branches depending on the number of times the input is received within a predetermined time, and the animation is switched to the next animation. Also,
The elapsed time acquisition unit (7) resets the elapsed time each time the animation is switched after a predetermined time has elapsed, and starts acquiring the elapsed time from this time again. As shown in FIG. 2, the control unit (4) here serves as a so-called central processing unit (CPU), and the input receiving unit (5).
It refers to the mutual control of the respective processing units such as, and each processing unit itself, and is connected to the outside such as the recording medium (1) by a bus.

(A) CD storing the embodiment of the present invention
-Insert the recording medium (1) such as ROM into the game machine main body,
The power is turned on (step S101). The recording medium (1) is a medium in which programs and data that can be loaded in the storage memory (3) are recorded. After the program is loaded automatically, then the start button (40) of the input device (2)
Press to start the game (step S102).

(B) The reception of the input from the input device (2) is started (step S103), and the input receiving section (5) checks whether or not the first input is received (step S10).
4). When the reception of the first input is recognized, the elapsed time acquisition unit (7) immediately starts to acquire the elapsed time (step S105). Then, in the storage unit (6), the bit at the corresponding position of the magic parameter register is set to 1 depending on the number of receptions 1 and the type of the received information (input button) (step S106). For example, if the first button pressed is the □ button (41), that is, “speed”, bit 0
Becomes 1. When the input receiving unit (5) does not receive the input, it waits until the input is received.

(C) Then immediately enter the mode of FIG.
In the animation part (10), first in A1 of FIG.
Start the animation character movement (step S
107) and is displayed on the TV (television monitor) (14) by the image processing unit (12). Furthermore, the voice selection unit (1
In 1), the voice of the magic parameter corresponding to the bit set to 1 in the first reception on the magic parameter register is selected and its reproduction is instructed (step S10).
8), reproduced from the voice processing unit (13) through the speaker (15). Then, the input receiving unit (5) receives the next new button input from A1 to B1 for a predetermined time.

(D) Next, the elapsed time acquisition unit (7) acquires the elapsed time and checks whether a predetermined time from A1 to B1 has elapsed (step S109). If it is within the predetermined time, it is checked whether the input is received (step S11).
0). When the input is received, it is checked whether the total number of receptions from the start of input reception is within the third time (step S
111). If it is within the third time, the bit at the corresponding position of the magic parameter register is set to 1 in the storage unit (6) according to the number of times of reception and the type of the received information (step S112). For example, if there is the second reception and the pressed button is the O button (43), that is, the "spread" button, the bit 5 becomes 1. When no input is received or when the number of receptions exceeds the third, the process returns to the step of checking whether a predetermined time has passed (step S109).
Then, at B1 after the lapse of a predetermined time, it is checked how many new inputs are received between A1 and B1, and the process branches.

(E) When no new input is received between A1 and B1 (step S113), the execution unit (8) sets the bit (1) in the magic parameter register until then ( The execution of the magic parameter corresponding to the previous first reception) is started (step S11).
4). Then, the erasing unit (9) clears the magic parameter register to 0 (step S115), and the image processing unit (1
2) Magical launch on TV (14) (step S1)

(F) When a new input is received once between A1 and B1 (step S117), the animation unit (10) switches to the second animation A2, and the second animation The motion of the character is started (step S118), and the image processing unit (1
2) is displayed on the TV (14). Then, in the voice selection unit (11), the voice of the magic parameter corresponding to the bit which is 1 in the second reception on the magic parameter register is selected and its reproduction is instructed (step S119), and the voice processing is performed. From section (13) to speaker (1
Played through 5). Further elapsed time acquisition unit (7)
Then, the elapsed time is reset and the acquisition of the elapsed time is started again (step S120), and the input receiving unit (5)
Then, the next new button input is accepted from A2 to B2 for a predetermined time.

(G) The elapsed time acquisition unit (7) acquires the elapsed time and checks whether a predetermined time from A2 to B2 has elapsed (step S121). If it is within the predetermined time, the input receiving unit (5) checks whether or not the input is received (step S122). When the input is received, it is checked whether the total number of receptions from the start of input reception is within the third time (step S123). If it is within the third time, the bit at the corresponding position of the magic parameter register is set to 1 in the storage unit (6) depending on the number of times of reception (that is, the reception here is the third time) and the type of the received information (step S124). When no input is received or when the number of receptions exceeds the third, the process returns to the step of checking whether the predetermined time has passed again (step S121). Then, at B2 after a lapse of a predetermined time, it is checked how many new inputs are received between A2 and B2, and the process branches.

(H) If no new input is received between A2 and B2 (step S125), the execution unit (8) sets the bit set to 1 in the magic parameter register (received 2 Execution of the magic parameter corresponding to (number of times) is sequentially started from the order in which 1 is stored, that is, from the lower bit side (step S126). Then, the eraser (9) clears the magic parameter register to 0 (step S127), and the image processor (12) causes the TV (1
After displaying the magical emission (step S128) in 4) and ending, return to (b).

(I) If a new input is received once or more between A2 and B2, the animation part (1
In 0), the A3 of the third animation is switched to, the motion of the character of the third animation is started (step S133), and T is set by the image processing unit (12).
It is displayed on V (14). And the voice selection unit (11)
In, the voice of the magic parameter corresponding to the bit which is 1 in the third reception on the magic parameter register is selected and its reproduction is instructed (step S134),
It is reproduced from the voice processing unit (13) through the speaker (15). Further, the elapsed time acquisition unit (7) resets the elapsed time and starts acquiring the elapsed time again (step S135), and since the reception has already been performed three times in total,
After that, the input is not accepted, and after a lapse of a predetermined time (step S136), in the execution unit (7), the magic parameter corresponding to the bit set to 1 in the magic parameter register (three times received) is set. The execution is sequentially started from the lower bit side (step S137). Then, the erasing unit (8) clears the magic parameter register to 0 (step S138), and the image processing unit (12) sets the TV.
After displaying the spell of magic (step S139) in (14) and ending, return to (b).

(J) If a new input is received twice or more between A1 and B1, the animation part (1
In 0), switch to A2 of the second motion,
The motion of the character in the second motion is started (step S129), and the TV (14) is started by the image processing unit (12).
