Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a gaming machine having a display device capable of displaying an object to be drawn on which required image processing has been performed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Display control in pachinko machines in recent years has become extremely versatile, and realism has been pursued. For this reason, various proposals have been made for applying a CG (computer graphic) method to make the movement of a symbol or the like realistic. For example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2000-339495 describes an object in a virtual three-dimensional space which is drawn while moving its viewpoint and updates its texture to express a realistic movement with a small memory capacity.

However, when such a CG technology is applied to a game machine such as a pachinko machine or a pachislot machine, a one-point perspective view from a certain viewpoint (1).
Since only the drawing target object is drawn using the point perspective image), only a perspective view from a single viewpoint can be used, which is unsatisfactory in terms of realism.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve such a conventional problem, and a novel effect can be achieved by switching and displaying a single-point perspective image and a multiple-point perspective image of an object to be drawn. It is intended to provide a gaming machine.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention relates to a gaming machine provided with a display device capable of displaying an object to be rendered on which required image processing has been performed. A display control means is provided for switching and displaying a single-point perspective image and a multiple-point perspective image of a project on the display device.

According to the present invention, a novel effect can be achieved by switching and displaying the single-point perspective image and the multiple-point perspective image of the object to be drawn on the display device.

[0006] The display control means may include means for performing the switching display when a predetermined game state is entered.

[0007] The multiple-point perspective image may be a two-point perspective image or a three-point perspective image. Further, the display control means may further include a mapping means for pasting an original image representing a design to the plurality of perspective images.

[0008] Such display control can be realized by recording a display control program on a computer-readable recording medium, and reading and executing the display control program recorded on the recording medium by a computer. Examples of such a recording medium include a semiconductor recording medium such as a ROM and a semiconductor IC, an optical recording medium such as a DVDROM and a CDROM, a magnetic recording medium such as a flexible disk, and a magneto-optical recording medium such as an MO. Further, the display control program may be downloaded from the information processing device via a communication network.

In step S180, data necessary for display control of the ordinary symbol display device 108 is stored in the RAM.
203 and a command necessary for display control of the special symbol display device 100 (see FIGS. 6 to 9).
(Including the commands described in the above) are stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 203, and the timer values of the various timers are reduced (step S190). In step S180, the main control unit 200 determines a command of a necessary mode and event according to the game control with reference to the command data table area 202, and stores digital information indicating the determined mode and event in the RAM 203 in a predetermined manner. Store in area.

Next, in step S195, the starting port operating solenoid 300 and the special winning port operating solenoid 302 are driven to control the opening and closing of the special winning opening 106 and the opening / closing member 120 of the special symbol starting opening 104 in a predetermined pattern. Then, in step S220, a prize ball setting process for outputting control information for causing a prize ball payout device (not shown) to perform a payout operation is executed.

6 executes a sound effect process for storing a command for controlling the sound effect generation in a predetermined area of the RAM 203 in correspondence with the game state.

Next, in step S260, R
The data stored in the AM 203 is output to the corresponding device via the output port 215 (port output process), and the device that receives the data performs a control operation based on the data. Then, a strobe signal is first output to the special symbol display device 100, and the mode and event data stored in the RAM 203 in step S180 are transmitted as shown in FIG. As a result, for example, the commands shown in FIGS. 6 to 9 are transmitted from the main control unit 200 to the special symbol display device 100 and received.

In step S270, the reset circuit 21
The reset standby process is executed until the reset signal is input from Step 3, and when the reset signal is input, the process shifts to Step S110 to continue the gaming machine control. Note that the reset standby process includes updating of the various random number generation counters described above.

Next, the operation of the CPU 1020 of the special symbol display device 100 receiving the command will be described with reference to FIG. First, in step S1100, the CPU 1020 sets its own stack pointer,
Initialization of the RAM 1090, initialization of the RAM 1090 itself, and the like are performed, and in step S1102, it is determined whether a new command has been input. When it is determined that a new command for display control has been input, (Y
es) The process proceeds to step S1104, while otherwise (No), the process proceeds to step S1110.

In step S1104, in the interrupt processing described with reference to FIG.
Copies the received command to the RAM 1090, and checks whether the command is normal or not. Next, CPU1
020 determines the start address of a processing table (not shown) in order to obtain a necessary command for performing fine display control independently of the main control unit 200. Then, in step S1108, the image processing LSI 1060 The data in the necessary area of the RAM 1090 is updated in order to output the data to the RAM 1090.

Next, in step S1110, RA
Based on the symbol control data set in M1090, scroll data to be output to the image processing LSI 1060 is obtained and set in the RAM 1090, and the symbol display position is set. Then, in step S1112, the symbol speed control is performed. Necessary data is stored in the program ROM
It is obtained from a speed table (not shown) built in the 1040 and set in the RAM 1090, and then the step S
At 1114, the symbol offset value is updated based on the speed data, and preparations are made for performing symbol fluctuation at the set speed.

Next, in step S1116, RA
Animation data is acquired from an animation processing table (not shown) storing the animation processing data set in M1090, and preparation for displaying a background image is performed.
Set in P output buffer, output enable flag is "1"
It is determined whether or not this is the case (step S1118).

If the output permission flag is not "1" (No), the flow returns to step S1102 to repeat a series of processing, while the output permission flag is "1" (Ye
In step S1120, the data set in the VDP output buffer is transferred to the image processing LSI 106 in step S1120.

The developed data is temporarily stored in the video RAM 1080 and then sent to the LCD panel interface circuit 1100 to be sent to the LCD panel 1120. Is displayed. In this way, at the set display position on the special symbol display device 100, the symbol variation display at the set speed, the display of the background image, and the like are performed.

FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 are explanatory diagrams of an example of a transmission timing of a command transmitted from the main control unit 200 to the special symbol display device 100, and the transmission command. When a predetermined condition such as a game ball winning in the special symbol starting port 104 is satisfied, the unit 200 first transmits a command for starting a symbol variation and specifying a variation pattern (). A command for designating a left stop symbol is transmitted after a lapse of T1 time (), and a command for designating a middle stop symbol is transmitted after a lapse of T2 time (), and a right stop symbol is designated after a lapse of T3 time. (), And after the elapse of T time from the start of the fluctuation, a command () for stopping all the symbols is transmitted. Before receiving the command, the CPU 1020 of the special symbol display device 100 performs fine display control such as a change in the fluctuation speed to perform a series of fluctuation display control, and ends the fluctuation display control after a lapse of T time from the start of the fluctuation. I do.

(Main part of the present invention) First, the outline of creation of a one-point perspective drawing and a plurality of (two, three-point) perspective drawings will be described. Assuming that a cubic drawing target object 1500 is arranged on a coordinate system as shown in FIG.
The drawing target object 1500 is drawn from the viewpoint 1501 in the negative axis direction as a one-point perspective image shown in FIG. 16, and the plane P1 at Z = 0 shown in FIG. 15 is located on the near side as shown in FIG. Is represented by In this way, in the one-point perspective image, the vanishing point 1502, which is the point where the parallel ridge lines of the drawing target object 1500 converge at one point, is set to the viewpoint 1
Rendering is performed so as to match 501.

FIG. 17 shows a drawing object 1500.
Are drawn such that the parallel ridges of the object gather at the vanishing point 1502 and the vanishing point 1503.
00 becomes a two-point perspective image 1520. FIG. 18 is an enlarged view of this, showing two vanishing points 1502 on the horizon 2.
It can be seen that a more three-dimensional image expression can be realized by providing the image data 1503. Note that this two-point perspective image 1
An example of an algorithm for creating 520 is described in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-198815.

FIG. 19 shows a drawing object 1500.
Are the vanishing point 1504, vanishing point 1505 and vanishing point 15
The three-point perspective image 1530 of the drawing target object 1500 is drawn so as to gather at 06. When a vanishing point is provided above the drawing target object 1500, an image that looks up can be generated. On the other hand, when a vanishing point is provided below, an image that looks down can be generated. Because it is possible, it is possible to give a feeling of looking from the sky or looking down on an object. Thus, a more realistic image expression can be realized.

FIG. 22 shows the character ROM 1 shown in FIG.
An example of newly stored image data in addition to the data of the image data 180 (image data storage means) is shown. The image data group includes a one-point perspective image 2100, a two-point perspective image 2200,
Basic pattern data of each perspective image of the three-point perspective image 2300 is stored, and a texture group, which is a data group of textures as original images of the respective display symbols, is a texture a25.
00, texture b2510, texture c2520,
... are stored. In the present embodiment, the texture a 2500 is an original image of a special symbol representing the number “3” as shown in, for example, FIGS. 20, 21, and 22, and the texture b 2510, the texture c 2520,.
Are original images of special symbols representing the numbers “4”, “5”,.

Then, the CPU 11020 adds the texture a 250 to the one-point perspective image 2100 as shown in FIG.
0 is pasted to express a horizontally long cylindrical object.
As shown in FIG.
500 is attached to draw a horizontally long cylindrical object. Further, the CPU 1020 adds a texture a 2500 to the three-point perspective image 2300 as shown in FIG.
To draw a vertically long cylindrical object. In this way, the effect is further increased by pasting (mapping) the texture on the two-point or three-point perspective images and displaying the pattern on the LCD panel 1120. In this example, for example, a special design consisting of numbers from “0” to “9” is mapped as a texture and pasted on software to perform a design display effect. It is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to the pattern, and may be other patterns such as a normal pattern, a notice pattern, a background image, and the like, and the texture to be mapped may be other than the numerical pattern.

(Operation Example 1) An operation example 1 will be described with reference to FIG. In a state where the CPU 1020 is receiving the first and second commands from the main control unit 200, first, in step S2300, the CPU 1020 performs an effect of displaying a symbol variation display in response to the reception of the first command. At this time, the CPU 1020 maps the texture a 2500 on the one-point perspective image 2100 and performs scroll display on the LCD panel 1120 of the special symbol display device 100 so as to move from the upper side to the lower side of the screen.

If the stop symbol specified by the previously received second command is the same (Yes in step S2310), it is determined that a big hit has occurred, and the process proceeds to step S2320. If the stop symbols are not the same by the command (No in step S2310), the process proceeds to step S2330, assuming that the symbols are off. In step S2330, in response to the reception of the third command, the texture a is added to the one-point perspective image 2100 as shown in FIG.
The symbol to which 2500 is mapped is displayed as a stop symbol.

Then, also in step S2320,
The stop symbol is displayed in response to the reception of the third command. In this case, the two-point perspective image 22 shown in FIG.
A pattern in which texture a 2500 is mapped to 00 is displayed as a stop pattern, or a pattern in which texture a 2500 is mapped to a three-point perspective image 2300 as shown in FIG. 22 is displayed as a stop pattern. Therefore, when a symbol is changed, scroll display is performed with a one-point perspective image, but when a big hit state is reached, a plurality of point-perspective images suddenly appear, so that a powerful and novel effect can be achieved.

(Operation Example 2) Next, an operation example 2 will be described with reference to FIG. First, the case of FIG. 25A will be described. At the start of the variable display, the CPU 1020 assigns one texture a 2500 to each special symbol as shown in FIG.
A scroll display is performed so as to map onto the point perspective image 2100 and move this from the upper side to the lower side of the screen. When the odd-numbered (1, 3,...) Times reach is established from the start of the game (when the left symbol and the middle symbol are the same), C
The PU 1020 performs a display effect using the two-point perspective image 2200. Specifically, for the left symbol and the middle symbol, the two-point perspective image 2200 obtained by mapping the symbol corresponding to the stopped symbol is stopped and displayed, and for the right symbol, the horizontal symbol is indicated by X in FIG. Fig. 2 shows special symbols to be changed while rotating around the central axis of the direction.
The texture a2 is added to the two-point perspective image 2200 as shown in FIG.
The symbol 500 is mapped to change the symbol, and then the right symbol is stopped and displayed with the stopped symbol.

Next, the case of FIG. 25B will be described. At the start of the variable display of each special symbol, the CPU 1020 maps the texture a 2500 as shown in FIG. 21 onto the one-point perspective image 2100 and performs scroll display so as to move the image from the upper side to the lower side of the screen. When the even-odd number (2, 4,...) Times reach is established from the start of the game (when the left symbol and the middle symbol are the same), the CPU
1020 performs a display effect using the three-point perspective image 2300. Specifically, for the left symbol and the middle symbol, a three-point perspective image 22 in which the symbol corresponding to the stop symbol is mapped.
00 is stopped and the right symbol is mapped on the three-point perspective image 2200 so as to represent the symbol variation while rotating around the central axis in the vertical direction as shown by the symbol Y in FIG. do it,
The display is changed on the LCD panel 1120. Then, the right symbol is also stopped and displayed with the stop symbol.

Therefore, the one-point perspective image and the plural-point perspective image can be switched and displayed according to an appropriate rule, so that a real and novel effect can be achieved. As described above, according to the present embodiment, the CPU 1020 can perform a novel effect by switching and displaying the single-point perspective image and the multiple-point perspective image of the drawing target object on the display device. Further, the CPU 1020 performs the switching display when the predetermined game state is set, so that the transition to the predetermined game state is impressed for the player.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, various modifications and changes can be made to the above embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, the texture to be mapped should be something other than a design,
The object to be drawn is any object such as a background,
And the like.

In the above description, a pachinko machine has been described as an example of a gaming machine. However, the present invention is applicable not only to pachislot machines but also to other gaming machines that play games using game media. Needless to say.
