detailed description

The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The following description is only to illustrate the basic principle of the present invention and not to limit it.

According to a resource publishing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the method may include:

101. In response to a resource release request, determine a created folder and a selected resource template, where the created folder includes a first game resource of a game to be produced.

102. Obtain the second game resource input to the selected resource template, edit the first game resource and the second game resource according to the selected resource template, and obtain a scene file.

103. Construct the game logic based on the object editor and the logic editor, and obtain the logic file.

104. Package the scene file and the logic file, obtain the game resource package of the game to be produced, and release the game resource package.

According to the resource release method of the embodiment of the present invention, in response to the resource release request, determine the created folder including the first game resource of the game to be produced and the selected resource template, obtain the second game resource input to the selected resource template, Edit the first game resource and the second game resource according to the selected resource template to obtain the scene file, and construct the game logic based on the object editor and the logic editor to obtain the logic file. Finally, the scene files and logic files are packaged and packaged to obtain the game resource package of the game to be produced, and the game resource package is released, so that game developers do not need to consider multi-terminal concepts in the process of producing games, and only need to provide Content-related game resources can be released automatically, reducing the workload of developers, improving the efficiency of resource release, and reducing operation and maintenance costs.

According to a method for publishing resources according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2A , the method may include the following steps 201-204:

201. In response to a resource release request, determine that a folder has been created and a resource template has been selected.

The existing game development and release process of game resources, whether using a commercial engine or a self-developed engine, requires artists and planners to use editors to create resources used in the game, and programmers to compile the resources and get the resources that can be released to Executable programs for each platform, and then package and publish the resources of the entire game to each application store. For example, to publish a game on an application store such as Steam (a game or software platform) or Google Play (an online application store), the developer needs to upload and publish the entire game package of the corresponding platform, and the user uses the device to download the entire game package from the platform and install it. used later. In some embodiments, each game corresponds to a server, and game resources need to be recompiled to generate a new executable program if there is an update. Moreover, when the game is updated, the server corresponding to the game needs to stop the server process, re-download the executable program, and update the table files and script files that the server logic depends on.

However, the applicant realizes that the following defects exist in the above-mentioned entire resource release and operation and maintenance process. First of all, the size of the game resource package is relatively large, and the resources need to be packaged and uploaded repeatedly. If there are several platforms that need to release the game, several resources need to be packaged. Especially for some platforms with the concept of channels, each channel of the platform Both require uploading a specific channel pack. Therefore, program developers need to compile corresponding program codes for each platform of each game, and there is a lot of repetitive work. Secondly, the process of resource development and release is complicated. The development of a complete game requires the close and orderly cooperation of art, planning, and programming personnel. On the one hand, it increases the probability of errors, on the other hand, it increases the game development time and costs, and online games require a lot of server deployment and logic debugging. It needs to consume a lot of debugging time for server developers and client developers. In addition, since the server needs to recompile the execution file when the logic of the game is updated, in fact, most of the game updates are out of service updates, which affects the user experience and increases the operation and maintenance cost.

To sum up, according to a method for publishing resources according to an embodiment of the present invention, in response to a resource publishing request, determine the created folder including the first game resource of the game to be produced and the selected resource template, and obtain the resource template input to the selected resource template. For the second game resource, edit the first game resource and the second game resource according to the selected resource template to obtain the scene file, and construct the game logic based on the object editor and the logic editor to obtain the logic file. Finally, the scene files and logic files are packaged and packaged to obtain the game resource package of the game to be produced, and the game resource package is released, so that game developers do not need to consider multi-terminal concepts in the process of producing games, and only need to provide Content-related game resources can be released automatically, reducing the workload of developers, improving the efficiency of resource release, and reducing operation and maintenance costs.

In order to realize the technical solution of the present invention, the embodiment of the present invention also provides a resource publishing platform. The resource publishing platform exists as a set of applications, including editors, Windows (an operating system), IOS (an operating system) and Android (an operating system) clients, and each client is just as a An empty game frame exists and does not include specific game content, and the game content released by the developer through the editor later will be uploaded to the resource publishing platform as an additional package, so that users can select specific game content on the resource publishing platform to download to Play with the corresponding client. In some implementations, the user can register and log in to the resource publishing platform, and then open an editor to make games. As the core tool of the resource publishing platform, the editor is designed to include a full-featured integrated editor required for the entire workflow from design, development, preview, debugging to publishing. The goal supports publishing games to IOS, Android, and PC (Personal Computer, personal computer) client platform, truly realize one-time development and run on the whole platform. See the editor frame diagram shown in Figure 2B, use the 2D Engine Core (2D Engine Core) packaged by the client to receive the developer's resource release request, and then call the animation special effects editor, terrain editor, plot editor, scene Editor, logic editor, UI (User Interface, user interface) editor, etc. complete the production of game scenes, UI and game logic.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the editor integrates all tools, provides a design-oriented automated workflow, and realizes that the game can be released without programming at all. The editor actually provides developers with preset resource templates such as game templates and modules, so as to reduce the developer's learning costs and allow developers to directly use resource templates. In order to distinguish games developed by different developers, in response to the developer's resource publishing request, the editor of the resource publishing platform will determine the created folder and the selected resource template created by the developer when issuing the resource publishing request, so that in the subsequent Develop the game based on the created folder. In some implementations, the created folder includes the first game resource of the game to be produced. The first game resource can be an online resource provided by the resource publishing platform, or imported locally by the developer, such as pictures, sounds, videos, etc. Resources, the resource publishing platform is based on the editor and will be copied to the created folder after loading the first game resource. In addition, in the editor of the resource publishing platform, developers can also use the online resources provided by the resource publishing platform to create animations and particles and other secondary resources.

202. Obtain the second game resource input to the selected resource template, edit the first game resource and the second game resource according to the selected resource template, and obtain a scene file.

In the embodiment of the present invention, after determining the created folder including the first game resource of the game to be produced and the selected resource template, there are already some basic resources in the project related to the game to be produced, and the resource release platform will base on The editor obtains the second game resource input to the selected resource template, edits the first game resource and the second game resource according to the selected resource template, and obtains the scene file, thereby realizing the construction of scene content and UI in the game to be produced.

In some implementations, when generating the scene file, the resource distribution platform loads the first game resource included in the created folder based on the editor, and loads the second game resource input into the selected resource template. Subsequently, the first game resource and the second game resource are synthesized according to the selected resource template to obtain the secondary game material, and an editor is used to edit and render the secondary game material to obtain the scene file. In some implementations, the editor used when generating the scene file may be one or more of a scene editor, an interface editor, and a resource editor. Secondary game materials can be animations, special effects, etc. in the game created by the developer based on the above-mentioned editor, such as the skills of game characters or animations and special effects of scene backgrounds, etc., all belong to secondary game materials.

It should be noted that the scene is the most basic way to organize the game content, and it is also the basic form of the game shown to the players. Therefore, the resource publishing platform is also equipped with terrain tools, monster spawning tools, etc. Developers can select terrain tools, drag in static images, and use blocking maps or monster spawning tools to improve the scene, and edit the game through the interface editor Interface, the button response of the subsequent game interface realizes the UI function through the logic editor.

203. Construct the game logic based on the object editor and the logic editor, and obtain the logic file.

In the embodiment of the present invention, after the creation of the scene file is completed, since there will be game logic such as game missions and story lines in the game, it is necessary to construct the game logic based on the object editor and the logic editor, obtain the logic file, and make the game The content is more perfect.

In some implementations, developers can use various global containers configured in the resource publishing platform and object editors such as random pools and formula editors to configure object data, use logic editors to build specific game logic, and realize game The operation and interaction of logic, the main loop script that drives the entire game logic and the control of player characters.

It should be noted that, in order to ensure that the game to be produced can run normally after release, after generating scene files and logic files, the resource publishing platform will test the logic files, use the editor to automatically generate logic scripts, resource packaging and data generation, etc. , for game testing under the Windows platform. In some implementation manners, the resource publishing platform will generate a script file of the logic file, and test the script file. When the script file passes the test, continue to package the scene file and logic file, obtain the game resource package and release the game resource package. And when the script file fails the test, determine the abnormal game logic that failed the test in the logic file, generate a test failure reminder with the abnormal game logic, and display the test failure reminder, so that the developer can carry out logic file based on the test failure reminder Revise. In the process of actual application, the resource publishing platform provides a preview function for scene files, and developers can click the preview at any time to view the running effect of the current scene.

204. Package the scene file and the logic file, obtain the game resource package of the game to be produced, and release the game resource package.

In the embodiment of the present invention, after the scene file and the logic file are generated, the resource release platform will package the scene file and the logic file, obtain the game resource package of the game to be produced, and release the game resource package. In some implementations, the process of packaging and publishing can be performed by an editor in the resource publishing platform, and the editor will automatically perform incremental packaging and uploading of multi-platform resources for direct publishing.

When releasing the game resource pack, the game resource pack can be stored in the cache space of the resource server, and a target game project is created on the game server, and the game resource pack is deployed under the target game project on the game server.

It should be noted that, whether it is the testing process mentioned in step 203 or the publishing process mentioned in step 204, the resource publishing platform needs to convert and compress the resource data and provide it to the client and server. Make game-related resource data export, the exported data can include:

1. Original material. The original material refers to the picture, audio, video and other materials in the scene file, which needs to be format converted according to the format indicated by the platform to be released for the game to be produced;

2. Scene data. Scene data refers to scene files, or sometimes UI or animation special effects will form independent UI files, animation special effects files, etc., and UI files, animation special effects files, etc. also belong to scene data. The scene data is converted into binary data as needed, so that it can be used for subsequent operations such as client-side map loading and character creation;

3. Template data: Template data refers to the data such as characters, backpacks, props, and skills configured by the developer. The template data will be exported to the server for use in the creation of logical data such as characters;

4. Block data: block data refers to the block information set by the developer on the map. Blocking data exports binary files for server and client use;

5. Script file: Script file refers to the script of the logic file generated by the developer using building blocks in the logic editor, which will be automatically exported as a server script for release;

6. Other configuration data: Other configuration data refers to other configuration files required for the game to run, and other configuration data will also be released with the release of the game.

In the process of actual application, the exported data described above will be packaged and uploaded to other third-party platforms for the next step of review. After the review is passed, server deployment and game release will be carried out respectively.

To sum up, the workflow of the editor in the resource publishing platform is shown in Figure 2C: first, the editor processes the first game resources such as pictures, audio, and video provided by the developer and the second game resources to obtain the second game materials . Then, generate scene files and logic files based on the scene editor, UI editor, logic editor, object editor, scenario editor, task editor, etc. Finally, package the scene files and logic files, generate script files for testing, and release them after the tests pass.

In addition, when the server of the resource publishing platform starts, it will not load any game server resources. When the server detects that the player requests to log in to the game server and requests to create a room corresponding to the game server, the server will determine that the game login request indicates the first game to log in, that is, determine which game the player wants to log in to. Subsequently, the server queries whether the first game resource package of the first game is deployed on the game server. When the query determines that the first game resource package is not deployed on the game server, the first game resource package of the first game is read in the cache space of the resource server, the first game item is created on the game server, and the second game item is created on the game server. A game resource pack is deployed under the first game project, and the first game resource pack is run based on the game server to decompress and deploy the first game resource pack, load the game logic of the first game, and create rooms, gardens, etc. for players virtual area. And when it is determined that the first game resource package is deployed on the game server, the first game resource package is run based on the game server, and a virtual area is created for the player in the first game resource package after running according to the instruction of the game login request.

In some implementations, the server of the resource publishing platform will periodically detect the version of the existing game resource, that is, every preset period, the server reads the version information of the game resource package deployed under the target game project. When the read version information is inconsistent with the latest version information, continuously detect the number of players in the game scene constructed by the game resource pack, and load the latest resource pack corresponding to the latest version information in the cache space when the number of players is 0 , deploy the latest resource pack under the target game project on the game server. And when the read version information is consistent with the latest version information, keep the current working state.

To sum up, the entire release process of the game resource pack is as follows: Refer to Figure 2D, the game resource pack is uploaded to the server and awaits platform review. When the review fails, the developer is notified to rectify the game resource pack. And when the review is passed, the game resource pack is added to the resource version list, and the game resource pack is stored in the cache space. In some implementations, when a player logs into the game based on a client request, the server will start a server process, and check whether the version of the running game resource package is the latest version according to the records in the resource version list. If it is not the latest version, load the latest version of the game resource pack in the cache space, and update it when the player exits the game. And if it is the latest version, keep the game running. It should be noted that if the game resource pack is not downloaded on the device used by the player when requesting to log in to the game, the game resource pack needs to be requested from the cache space and downloaded on the device to notify the player to enter the game based on the client.

Through the above steps 201 to 204, the production and release process of the game to be produced is completed. The specific process is summarized as follows: Referring to Figure 2E, the resource publishing platform receives the game resources provided by the developer based on the editor, generates scene files and Logic files are tested, and after the test is passed, the scene files and logic files are packaged to generate a game resource package and uploaded to the server of the resource publishing platform. The server stores, lists, and deploys the game resource pack, and provides game download and running entries in the player-oriented client. When the server detects the player’s request to run the game resource pack based on the client, it downloads the game resource pack, loads the game resources in the game resource pack on the player’s device, enters the game, and continues to execute on the game interface according to the player’s instructions Operations, room creation, team matching, and more.

In the embodiment of the present invention, in fact, the resource distribution platform also provides a client for players, and the client provides a plurality of different modules, so that players can manage personal information and games based on the functions of different modules and can communicate with the resource distribution platform. Registered other players to interact. In some implementations, the client provided by the resource publishing platform includes a discovery module, a game shelf module, a personal center module, a home page module and a community module. Among them, the discovery module is mainly used to display the games that have been launched on the resource release platform and to provide players with a game search function. Players can enter the game details page from the game recommended in the discovery page provided by the discovery module to learn about the game and download the game. Search the game you are interested in and enter the game details page to learn about the game and download the game; the game rack module is mainly used to manage various games on the resource publishing platform that players are downloading and have already downloaded. If the game has already been downloaded, you can start the game from here ;The personal center module is mainly used to manage the personal data of the players, provide the community registration login entry and the setting entry of the client-related functions of the resource publishing platform; the home page module mainly displays various topics and comments about the games launched on the resource publishing platform; The community module is used to provide social functions for players in the platform community associated with the resource publishing platform, including friends, messages, etc.

As shown in FIG. 2F , the process of the player searching and entering the game may include: 205. In response to the player's game search request, determine that the game search request indicates a second game to be searched for. When the game state indication of the second game is not downloaded, perform the following step 206; when the game state indication of the second game has been downloaded and the version information is the latest version information, perform the following step 207; when the game state of the second game When it is indicated that it has been downloaded and the version information is not consistent with the latest version information, the following step 208 is executed.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the player can input the name of the game to be searched on the discovery page provided by the discovery module. In this way, after the player confirms the information entered on the discovery page, in response to the player's game search request, the resource publishing platform determines that the game search request indicates the second game to search for, and checks whether the second game has been downloaded in the client. When the game state indication of the second game is not downloaded, it is necessary to assist the player to download the second game and enter the second game after the download is successful, that is, perform the following step 206; and when the game state indication of the second game has been downloaded and When the version information is the latest version information, you can directly enter the second game, that is, perform the following step 207; The second game is updated, and the second game is entered after the update is successful, that is, the following step 208 is executed.

206. When the game state of the second game indicates that it has not been downloaded, display the download entry, and when the download entry is triggered, download the second game resource package of the second game in the cache space of the resource server, and create the second game resource package on the game server. For the second game project, deploy the second game resource package under the second game project on the game server, and run the second game resource package based on the game server.

In the embodiment of the present invention, when the game state of the second game indicates that it has not been downloaded, it is necessary to assist the player to download the second game and enter the second game after the download is successful. Therefore, the download entry is displayed, and when the download entry is triggered , download the second game resource package of the second game in the cache space of the resource server, create the second game project on the game server, deploy the second game resource package under the second game project on the game server, and based on the game The server runs the second game resource pack.

207. When the game state of the second game indicates that it has been downloaded and the version information is the latest version information, display the game entry, and run the second game resource package based on the game server when the game entry is triggered.

In the embodiment of the present invention, when the game state indication of the second game has been downloaded and the version information is the latest version information, the second game can be directly entered. Therefore, the game entry entry is displayed, and when the game entry entry is triggered, The second game resource package is run based on the game server.

208. When the game state of the second game indicates that it has been downloaded and the version information is inconsistent with the latest version information, download the resource update package of the second game in the cache space of the resource server, and match the resource update package with the version information of the second game The resource packs are integrated to obtain a new game resource pack, and the new game resource pack is deployed on the game server under the second game project, and the new game resource pack is run based on the game server.

In the embodiment of the present invention, when the game state indication of the second game has been downloaded and the version information is inconsistent with the latest version information, it is necessary to update the second game in the client, and enter the second game after the update is successful, so , download the resource update package of the second game in the cache space of the resource server, integrate the resource update package with the resource package of the second game indicated by the version information to obtain a new game resource package, and upload the new game resource package on the game server The resource pack is deployed under the second game project, and the new game resource pack is run based on the game server.

Referring to Fig. 2H, the client of the resource publishing platform switches to the game window, initializes the game engine, reads the server IP (Internet Protocol, the protocol interconnected between networks) address and port of the local configuration, connects the Socket (port), and the game server Establish a data connection. It should be noted that if the connection fails, the connection will be made again every 2 seconds. If it is detected that the player connects to the game server based on the client of the resource publishing platform for the first time, then log in to the game server to obtain the game module identification of the currently running game resource package. The game module identification can be specifically MODID (module identification), Enter the game module indicated by the game module identification, the game module is also the game MOD (module), and start the interface manager and the script manager. Subsequently, the resource distribution platform sends an area entry request to the game server based on the script manager, receives the area ID fed back by the game server, enters the target area indicated by the area ID, and executes the game logic of the currently running game resource package.

In addition, continue to refer to FIG. 2H , the client will continue to monitor whether the player clicks the exit game button on the hover window, and if it detects that the player clicks the exit game button, it will determine that the player's exit request has been received. In response to the player's exit request, the client transmits the exit request to the game server, and sends a room exit message to the server. In some implementations, it should be noted that there are actually two situations for the exit request, one is that the player wants to exit the currently running game, and the other is that the player wants to exit the client provided by the resource publishing platform, Therefore, when the exit request indicates to exit the currently running game resource package, the exit success response fed back by the game server is received, and the game interface is canceled.
