Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a game device operating method and a game device using the operating method.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 12, a game controller 900 provided in a main body device 920 is used to display a display 9
There is known a game device of a type in which a display object displayed on 22 is operated to enjoy a game. Taking a baseball game as an example, the player operates the batter game character 924 or the pitcher game character 926, etc., and the batter game character 924 hits the ball 930 thrown from the pitcher game character 926 with a bat 928 to play the game. have fun. According to this game device, since it is possible to give the player a feeling of actually playing baseball, it is highly popular as a game.

Now, in this game device, for example, when a player sends a base to a desired base (base), after the base is designated by the cross key 902, the baseball button 90 is thrown.
The operation such as pressing 4 was performed. At this time, the throw button 9
04 only has a function as a button for selecting whether or not to send a ball, and the operation amount of the ball sending button 904 is not considered at all. Therefore, the player has the throw button 9
It is possible to reliably send a ball to a desired base by simply pressing 04, and as a result, it was not possible to express the difference in the ball-skilling skills that should exist between players in actual baseball. For this reason, the realism and tension of the game could not be improved.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and its purpose is to reflect the operation amount input from the operation means in the moving state of the display object. An object of the present invention is to provide an operating method and a game device capable of playing.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is a method of operating a game device using given operating means, wherein the operation amount input by said operating means is When a plurality of manipulated variable ranges are set to divide the range and the manipulated variable belongs to any one of the manipulated variable ranges other than the minimum and maximum manipulated variable ranges, the movement trajectory Is characterized in that the information for setting the moving state of the display object is changed according to the operation amount range to which the input operation amount belongs so that the shortest or the moving speed becomes maximum or the moving accuracy becomes maximum.

According to the present invention, for example, first to fifth operation amount ranges for dividing the operation amount range are set. Then, when the operation amount input by the operation unit belongs to an operation amount range set near the middle, for example, a third operation amount range, information (moving trajectory, moving trajectory, Movement speed, movement accuracy, etc.) are optimized. A player having an excellent operation skill can easily put the operation amount within the third operation amount range which is a range near the middle. On the other hand, the operation amount of a player having a poor operation skill is, for example,
It often belongs to the fifth operation amount range and the like. Therefore, according to the present invention, a player having an excellent operation skill can optimize the moving state of the display object, while a player having an inferior operation skill has difficulty in optimizing the moving state. As a result, for example, when the present invention is applied to a pitching game of a baseball game, the skill of the player can be reflected in the superiority or inferiority of the pitching game, and the realism, tension, and fun of the game can be significantly improved.

The present invention also provides a method of operating a game device using given operating means, wherein a plurality of operating amount ranges for dividing a range of operating amounts input by said operating means are set as said operating means. Is set so that the division changes according to the game situation when is operated, and the information for setting the movement state of the display object is changed according to the operation amount range to which the input operation amount belongs. And

According to the present invention, the division of the operation amount range changes according to the game situation. Taking the case where the first to fifth operation amount ranges are set as the operation amount range, for example, the set position of the third operation amount range changes between the first game situation and the second game situation. To do. As a result, in order to optimize the moving state of the display object, the player must finely adjust the size of the operation amount according to the change in the game situation. Therefore, according to the present invention, the operation skill of the player can be more reflected in the game result,
The realism of the game can be improved.

In this case, in the present invention, it is desirable that the division be changed according to the approximate distance to the movement target position of the display object. In this way, in the case where the present invention is applied to a baseball game using the operation buttons as the operation means, for example, the operation amount ranges depending on whether the throwing distance to the base, which is the moving target position, is short or long. The division of will change. For example, when the throwing distance is long, if the operation amount range is shifted in the direction in which the depth of pressing the operation button becomes deeper,
The size of the operation amount can be made to correspond to the size of the strength of the throwing power in the actual baseball, and the realism of the game can be increased.

The present invention is also a method of operating a game device using given operating means, wherein a plurality of operating amount ranges for dividing the range of operating amounts input by said operating means are set and displayed. It is characterized in that the information for setting the moving state of the object is changed according to the operation amount range to which the input operation amount belongs and the time until the operation amount reaches a value within the operation amount range.

According to the present invention, not only the manipulated variable range,
The moving state of the display object is controlled in consideration of the time required to reach the operation amount range. A player having an excellent operation skill can bring the operation amount into the appropriate operation amount range more accurately and quickly. Therefore, according to the present invention, the difference in the operation skill of the players can be more effectively reflected in the game result.

In the present invention, it is preferable that the operation means is an operation button in which the size of the operation amount is set depending on the size of the pressed depth. By doing so, it becomes possible to add a new function to the operation button, which conventionally has only the selection function and the like. That is, in the case of a baseball game as an example, the throw button conventionally has only a function of determining the timing of the throw, but according to the present invention,
For example, it is possible to represent the degree of force input during a ball throw by the depth of pressing the ball throw button, etc., and it is possible to significantly increase the realism of the game.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION An example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an example of a functional block diagram of a game device capable of realizing the operation method and the like of this embodiment. Here, the operation unit 12 corresponds to a game controller when a home game device is taken as an example, and the operation information obtained by the operation unit 12 is input to the processing unit 100. Processing unit 10
0 performs calculations for operating display objects such as game characters, balls, bats, etc. based on this operation information and a given program or the like. The image composition unit 200 includes the processing unit 1.
The game images are combined according to the instruction from 00 and the like is output to the display unit 10.

FIG. 2A shows an example of the game controller which is the operation unit 12. The direction keys 14 are used to specify the course of the ball when the pitcher throws the ball, to specify the base when sending the ball, to specify the direction in which the fielder moves, and the like. The operation button group 16
Determines the timing at which the pitcher throws the ball, the timing at which the batter swings the bat, and the timing at which the fielder throws or catches the ball.

In this embodiment, the operation button 18 is set to have a large or small amount of operation depending on the depth of the pressed depth d. That is, for example, when the pushed depth d is large, the operation amount becomes large, and when d is small, the operation amount becomes small. Then, as will be described later, in this embodiment,
The trajectory, accuracy, etc. of the pitched ball change depending on the magnitude of this operation amount. The operation amount may be input by using a button other than the operation button 18, such as L and R buttons 20 and 22.

FIG. 2B shows another example of the game controller used in this embodiment. In this game controller, the direction key 24, the grip portion 34 having the L button 30, and the grip portion 36 having the operation buttons 27, 28 and the R button 32 are relative to each other via a rotary connection means (not shown) or the like. It can be rotated. As shown in FIG. 2C, the player holds the grip portion 34 with the left hand.
Is gripped with the right hand, and the grip portions 34 and 36 are rotated relative to each other so as to be operated. And this rotation angle is
It is detected by an angle detecting means (not shown) using a rotary variable resistor or the like. Therefore, this rotation angle can be input to the processing unit 100 as the operation amount.

In the present embodiment, the operation amount range setting unit 110 shown in FIG. 1 sets a plurality of operation amount ranges for dividing the operation amount range input by the operation unit 12. Then, the movement state setting information changing unit 112 changes the information for setting the movement state of the display object such as the ball, the bat, and the game character according to the operation amount range to which the input operation amount belongs. Specifically, for example, the following processing is performed.

That is, as shown in the division 40 of FIG. 3A, the operation amount range is, for example, the first to fifth operation amount ranges 42 to.
It is divided into 49. Here, the operation amount corresponds to the depth d of the operation button 18 pressed as described above. More specifically, the range excluding the play range of the operation button 18 (the range of 0 to 19 and 192 to 256 in 256 stages) is divided into 64 stages as shown in FIG. And 0-8 steps, 8-15 steps, 15-30 steps, 30-
The 40-step range and the 40-64-step range are respectively the first manipulated variable range 42, the second manipulated variable range 44, the third manipulated variable range 46, the fourth manipulated variable range 48, and the fifth manipulated variable. It is set to the range 49.

In this embodiment, the information for setting the moving state of the display object, for example, the moving trajectory / moving speed of the display object, the moving accuracy, etc. are changed according to the operation amount range to which the operation amount belongs. For example, when the depth d of the operation button 18 is 0 to 8 steps and the operation amount belongs to the first operation amount range 42,
In this embodiment, it is determined that a weak ball B has been thrown. Then, the trajectory of the ball is set to have a mountain ball C as shown in FIG. 3B with a probability of 100%.

On the other hand, the depth d of the operation button 18 is 8 to 15
When the operation amount belongs to the second operation amount range 44, it is determined that a weak ball A has been thrown, and the trajectory of the ball is changed so as to be a mountain ball A and a mountain ball B with a probability of 50%. Set. Similarly, when the operation amount belongs to the third operation amount range 46, it is determined that the right throw B has been made,
The orbits of the balls are set so as to be mountain balls A and straight balls with a probability of 50%. In addition, the operation amount is the fourth operation amount range 4
If the ball belongs to No. 8, it is determined that the correct ball A has been sent, and the trajectory of the ball is set to be a straight ball with a probability of 100%. Further, when the manipulated variable belongs to the fifth manipulated variable range 49, it is determined that a powerful ball is thrown, and there is a 33%, 33%, or 34% probability of short-foot short bound, short bound, or overhead ball, respectively. To be set.

Then, for example, when the trajectory of the ball becomes a short bound or an overhead ball, as shown in FIG.
The trajectory of the ball 60 displayed on the game screen or the action of the game character 62 catching the trajectory is changed.
Further, for example, when a mountain ball is formed, it takes a long time for the ball to reach the base to which the ball is sent.

As described above, the first feature of this embodiment is that a plurality of operation amount ranges are set and the moving state of the display object is changed according to the operation amount range to which the operation amount belongs. Moreover, in the present embodiment, the movement state of the ball is optimum in the fourth manipulated variable range 48 which is a range other than the first manipulated variable range 42 in which the manipulated variable is the minimum and the fifth manipulated variable range 49 in which the manipulated variable is the maximum. (For example, the trajectory is a straight ball and the shortest). In this way, by providing a range near the middle of the depth d in which the ball is optimally thrown, the operation skill of the game possessed by each player can be reflected in the ball throwing technique. That is, a player having an excellent operation skill can put an appropriate force at the time of throwing a ball, and the depth of the operation button can be easily set within the fourth operation amount range 48. Therefore, it is possible to send a ball with a straight ball and quickly stab an enemy runner. On the other hand, a player having a poor operation skill is often tense and does not receive power when throwing a ball, or conversely receives too much power, and the depth of the operation button is also within the first and second operation amount ranges 42. , 44 and the fifth manipulated variable range 49 in many cases. Therefore, in this case, the ball becomes a mountain ball, the ball becomes a short bound / overhead ball, and the enemy runner cannot be stabbed. As described above, according to this embodiment, since an operation sensation close to that of an actual baseball throw is obtained, a realistic feeling of the game
The tension can be significantly improved.

Further, in the present embodiment, the division of the operation amount range changes according to the game situation when the operation button is operated, for example, the situation such as the distance between the fielder sending the ball and the base. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, the division 40 when the throwing distance, which is the distance to the moving target position (base) of the ball, is 0 to 10 m, and the division 50 when it is 10 to 15 m.
And are different in the setting of the manipulated variable range. That is, in the case of division 50 (10 to 15 m), division 40 (0-1
Compared with the case of 0 m), the fourth operation amount range 58, which is the range in which the trajectory of the ball is optimum, shifts further downward (the direction in which the operation button is pushed deeper). Therefore, the player has to push the operation button deeper as the throwing distance becomes longer. As a result, the depth of pressing the operation button, which is the amount of operation, can be made to correspond to the force required at the time of pitching, and the realism of the game can be increased. Further, as shown in FIG. 3A, in the present embodiment, the longer the throwing distance, the fourth operation amount range 48.
(And the third manipulated variable range 46) becomes narrower. As a result, as the throwing distance becomes longer, the difficulty of sending a good throw becomes higher, and the expressed world can be brought closer to the actual baseball.

Note that FIG. 5A and FIG.
An example of table data for setting the operation amount range shown in is shown. FIG. 5A is table data for setting the classification of the operation amount range (depth level) for each throwing distance. Further, FIG. 5B is table data for setting the appearance probability of the pitching type (trajectory) for each operation amount range (depth stage). In the present embodiment, table data having such a data structure is constructed on a memory in the device or the like, and the above-mentioned various processes are performed.

In the present embodiment, the movement trajectory, the movement speed, and the movement accuracy are considered in consideration of not only the operation amount range but also the time until the operation amount reaches the value of the operation amount range to which the input operation amount belongs. Etc. have been changed.

More specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, for example, the left and right swaying probabilities (movement accuracy of the ball) of the pitch are changed according to the time until the operation amount range (depth step) is reached. . FIG. 7A is table data corresponding to the weak pitching B of FIG. As shown in FIG. 7A, when the pressing speed (the speed until the operation amount reaches the first operation amount range) is 0 inter (the earliest pressing amount),
The probability of blurring 0 (the smallest blurring) is 89%, the probability of blurring 1 is 5%, the probability of blurring 2 to 7 is 1
%. On the other hand, in the case of the 9th interface in which the operation button is pressed latest, the probability that the blurring degree is 0 is 89% to 80%.
%. That is, according to the present embodiment, the faster the operation button is pressed, the higher the movement accuracy of the ball can be. It is considered that a player having a good game operation skill can press the operation button so as to reach the desired operation amount range earlier. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the more excellent the skill of game operation is, the more accurate the ball can be thrown, and the realism of the game can be increased.

FIG. 7 (B) is table data corresponding to the correct pitch A of FIG. In the present embodiment, when the depth of the operation button is just right and the operation amount belongs to the fourth operation amount range, the blurring degree is 0 with a probability of 100% regardless of the pressing speed, and the operation skill is Benefits are given to excellent players. FIG. 8 is table data corresponding to the thrown ball of FIG. In case of strength,
Since it is considered that the movement accuracy of the ball is also lowered, the deviation of the ball is set to be large as a whole.

Although FIG. 6, FIG. 7 (A), (B), and FIG. 8 show examples in which the throwing distance is 0 to 10 m, when the throwing distance is in another range, Separate table data is prepared for each.

Next, an example of the operation of this embodiment will be briefly described with reference to the flow chart shown in FIG. First, it is determined whether or not an operation button for instructing a pitch has been input (step S1), and if not input, the next inter-waiting is performed (step S8). On the other hand, if it is input, it is determined whether or not there is a base to be thrown (step S2), and if not, the next inter-waiting is performed (step S8). When the base to be sent is specified, the "distance to be sent" between the specified base and the fielder to send the ball is calculated (step S3). Next, for example, operation information (pushing depth and time) of the operation button for 10 inters is stored in a given memory (step S4). And these one
Based on the operation information for 0 inters, the "depth" when the operation button is pressed deepest during 10 inters and the "time" required to reach this "depth" are obtained (step S5). Next, the "ball throw distance" obtained in step S3 and the "depth" and "time" obtained in step S5
Based on the above, the information such as the moving trajectory and the moving accuracy is obtained from the table data pre-built on the memory (step S6). And based on the information requested
The trajectory of the ball displayed on the screen, the movement of the game character, etc. are determined and output to the display unit (step S
7).

The present invention is not limited to that described in the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made.

For example, in the above embodiment, the operation button has been described as an example of the operation means for inputting the operation amount. It is a great feature of the present invention that the operation amount range is set to the operation button which has been used as a simple means for selecting timing or the like, but the operation means of the present invention is not limited to this, and this operation is not limited thereto. Various operating means equivalent to the buttons can be used. For example, in FIGS. 2B and 2C, the rotation angle input from the game controller is
An operation amount range may be set as the operation amount from the operation means.

In the above embodiment, the ball in the baseball game has been described as an example of the display object whose movement state is controlled, but the display object to which the present invention is applied is not limited to this. For example, a bat in a baseball game,
The present invention can be applied to various display objects displayed in a game other than the sports game, such as the game character, the arms and legs of the game character, the ball in another sports game, and the like.

In the above embodiment, the movement state setting information is changed by directly changing the movement trajectory of the ball, the movement accuracy and the like, but the movement state setting information in the present invention is changed as follows. Other than this, various equivalents can be considered. For example, in the present embodiment, the following method is used to express the hitting (rebounding) of the ball by the bat as shown in FIG. 11 (A). That is, as shown in FIG. 11 (B), for each position of the bat 70, hitting back vectors 72, 74, 76, etc. corresponding to each position are set. The hitting direction of the ball is determined by the direction information of the hitting vectors 72, 74, 76, and the hitting speed of the ball is determined by the size information. When such a method is adopted, the operation amount range is set to the operation amount of the swing button, for example. Then, when the operation amount range to which the operation amount belongs is optimum, for example, the hitting back vectors 72 to 76 are set to have the maximum sizes. In this way, the higher the player's operation skill, the farther the ball can fly. Further, for example, the faster the operation amount reaches the operation amount range, the more the direction of the strike-back vectors 72 to 76 becomes,
Make it more vertical to the bat. That is, even when the bat 70 is in the state of C0 in FIG. 11B, the strike-back vectors 72 to 76 are oriented perpendicular to the bat. In this way, the higher the player's operation skill, the more accurately the hitting direction can be controlled. Further, it is possible to control the width of the bat thin range 78 (the range in which the magnitude of the hitting back vector is the largest) according to the manipulated variable range.

In the above embodiment, the game situation for changing the division of the manipulated variable range is described by taking the situation of the throwing distance to the base where the ball is thrown as an example, but the game situation of the present invention is not limited to this. Without being limited thereto, various types equivalent thereto can be adopted. For example, the operation amount range may be divided according to the game situation such as the throwing direction, the position of the fielder who throws the ball, and the wind. When the present invention is applied to the bat swing, the operation amount range is divided according to the speed and change of the ball thrown by the pitcher, the position of the ball on the home base, the height of the bat to be thrown out, etc. May be changed.

In the above embodiment, the case where the present invention is applied to a baseball game has been described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to other sports games such as soccer, tennis, table tennis, golf, basketball, or other sports games. Can be applied to various games such as tank games, airplane games, martial arts games, roll-plane games, and action games. For example, in an action game in which a game character jumps to avoid obstacles and the like, if the operation amount range is set to the jump button, the fun of the action game can be significantly improved.

Further, although the above-mentioned embodiments have been mainly described by taking the home-use game machine as an example, the present invention is not limited to the home-use game machine, but also the business-use game machine, a large attraction type in which a large number of players participate. It can also be applied to other game devices. Further, the present invention can be applied to a multimedia terminal having a function of playing a game with another player using a communication line or the like. Furthermore, the present invention can naturally be applied to what is called a three-dimensional game device. In this case,
A game character, a ball, a bat, etc. are represented by an object composed of, for example, a combination of polygons, and the position / direction information of the object in the object space (virtual three-dimensional space) is calculated in real time for each inter. Then, a visual field image that can be viewed from a given viewpoint position in the object space may be formed and output to the display unit.
