Abstract

An information processing method and apparatus, a storage medium, and an electronic device is provided. The method includes: a custom model editing control in a graphical user interface is provided; in response to a first touch operation acting on the custom model editing control, a first virtual character is controlled to build a custom model building in at least one first building area in a first game scene; and in response to a trigger event indicating the end of custom model editing, the custom model building is saved as a custom model.

Claims (40)

1. An information processing method, applied to a mobile terminal having at least one processor for executing a software application and a touch screen which is rendered with a graphical user interface, contents rendered on the graphical user interface at least partially comprising a first game scene, the first game scene comprising at least one first virtual character, the method comprising:

providing a custom model editing control on the graphical user interface;

in response to a first touch operation acting on the custom model editing control, controlling the first virtual character to build a custom model building in at least one first building area in the first game scene; and

in response to a trigger event indicating the end of custom model editing, saving the custom model building as a custom model;

wherein the custom model building comprises at least one building component, and controlling the first virtual character to build the custom model building in the at least one first building area in the first game scene comprises: acquiring first location information and first orientation information of the first virtual character in the first game scene; determining the at least one first building area according to the first location information and the first orientation information; building the at least one building component in the at least one first building area; and numbering the at least one building component according to a building sequence for building the at least one building component to obtain a number result.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein saving the custom model building as the custom model comprises:

in response to determining that the maximum number of the at least one building component is greater than or equal to 1, saving the custom model building as the custom model, and determining and recording the building sequence of the at least one building component in the custom model according to the number result; and

in response to determining that the maximum number of the at least one building component is less than 1, prompting a saving failure.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein saving, in response to the trigger event indicating the end of custom model editing, the custom model building as the custom model comprises:

providing a saving control on the graphical user interface;

in response to a second touch operation acting on the saving control, determining a building currently existing in the first game scene as the custom model building; and

saving the custom model building as the custom model.

4. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein saving the custom model building as the custom model comprises:

acquiring second location information and second orientation information of the first virtual character in the first game scene;

determining, according to the second location information and the second orientation information, third location information and third orientation information of the custom model building relative to the first virtual character; and

saving the custom model building as the custom model, and recording the third location information and the third orientation information.

5. The method as claimed in 5 , wherein the contents rendered on the graphical user interface at least further partially comprise a second game scene, and the method further comprises:

providing a custom model building control corresponding to the custom model on the graphical user interface;

in response to a third touch operation acting on the custom model building control, acquiring the custom model; and

building a custom model building corresponding to the custom model in the second game scene.

6. The method as claimed in claim 5 , wherein building the custom model building corresponding to the custom model in the second game scene comprises:

acquiring the third location information and the third orientation information, and acquiring fourth location information and fourth orientation information of the first virtual character in the second game scene;

determining at least one second building area in the second game scene according to the third location information, the third orientation information, the fourth location information and the fourth orientation information; and

building the custom model building corresponding to the custom model in the at least one second building area according to the building sequence.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 , further comprising:

providing a priority setting control on the graphical user interface; and

in response to a fourth touch operation acting on the priority setting control, setting a priority of at least one material used for building the custom model building according to the fourth touch operation, wherein the at least one material comprises at least one of the following: wood, stone, and iron.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein building the custom model building corresponding to the custom model in the at least one second building area according to the building sequence comprises:

determining a material with a first priority according to the priority of the at least one material, and sequentially building at least one building component corresponding to the custom model in the at least one second building area by using the material with the first priority according to the building sequence; and

in response to the at least one material with the first priority being detected to be insufficient, continuing to build at least one building component corresponding to the custom model by using a material with a second priority according to the building sequence.

9. An information processing apparatus, applied to a mobile terminal having at least one processor for executing a software application and a touch screen which is rendered with a graphical user interface, contents rendered on the graphical user interface at least partially comprising a first game scene, the first game scene comprising at least one first virtual character, the apparatus comprising:

a provision component, configured to provide a custom model editing control on the graphical user interface;

a custom model setting component, configured to control, in response to a first touch operation acting on the custom model editing control, the first virtual character to build a custom model building in at least one first building area in the first game scene; and

a saving component, configured to save, in response to a trigger event indicating the end of custom model editing, the custom model building as a custom model;

wherein the custom model building comprises at least one building component, and the custom model setting component is further configured to acquire first location information and first orientation information of the first virtual character in the first game scene; determine the at least one first building area according to the first location information and the first orientation information; build the at least one building component in the at least one first building area; and number the at least one building component according to a building sequence for building the at least one building component to obtain a number result.

10. An electronic device, comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory, configured to store at least one executable instruction of the at least one processor,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to execute the information processing method as claimed in claim 1 by executing the at least one executable instruction.

11. A non-transitory storage medium, on which a computer program is stored, wherein the computer program is executed by at least one processor to implement the information processing method as claimed in claim 1 .
