"Back to Xiajing?" Lan Caiyi was a little surprised when she heard this.
"But it's true that I haven't seen Grandpa for almost two months." Lan Caiyi thought for a while and said.
"In this case, let's go back to see Grandpa together. It's also the most beautiful time for Xia Jing in autumn.
It's especially suitable for playing, you ask mom if they are going?They are fine at home anyway, so it's better to go back together.Lan Caiyi suggested.
"This is a good idea. It just so happens that your mother can also go home to see your dad, and I will ask when I get home from get off work." Fang Yuan thought this idea was good.
After coming out of Lan Caiyi's office, Fangyuan went to the program department of Fanglan Games and asked Jin Yao to see how the game was progressing recently.
Although the planning department, the art department and the program department are still short of manpower, the basic personnel are already available.
In particular, the newly recruited personnel have been in the game industry for many years and have at least two or three large-scale game production experiences.
So their arrival has also accelerated the progress of game production.
Especially for the planning, Dong Liqun, the originally confident chief policy officer, was really hit hard.
Especially some planners from pig farms, their plot abilities, task chain writing, gameplay planning and other abilities are really powerful.
Not to mention twenty-four hours a day, or forty-eight hours a day, they can give you endless tasks.
As for the goose factory, their specialty is krypton gold, thinking of ways to make players krypton gold.
Since entering the Fanglan game, these game practitioners have been completely stunned by this epoch-making game.
This used to exist only in novels or movies, but it was unexpectedly possible to appear in reality.
This is the ultimate dream of all gamers, and this dream may be realized in their hands.
So they took out 200% of their enthusiasm and devoted themselves to their work.
As a result, countless brains, countless ideas, and countless plans were submitted and piled up in Dong Liqun's mailbox and on his desk.
The most important thing for Dong Liqun every day is to discuss various plot trends and activity play with everyone. After the decision is made, he will find the program department to have a meeting to realize these functions. He basically no longer participates in the production himself.
During this process, Dong Liqun has also grown a lot.
Because his subordinates are too strong, if one is not good, his position may not be guaranteed.
Compared with Dong Liqun, Jin Yao and the others are much easier.
These newly recruited programmers are indeed better than each.
At the beginning, they kept feedbacking various questions to Jin Yao to test the level of Jin Yao and others.
But in the end he was slapped in the face by the "Fanglan Engine".
The Fanglan engine is so powerful that the various experiences and skills learned by many programmers in their past careers have been completely subverted here.
Many complicated functions in the game can be realized by clicking a button here.
So their job is not so much about making games as it is about enriching Fanglan engines.
The Fanglan engine is equivalent to the main trunk of a big tree, and they only need to enrich the branches and leaves.
With a manual "protocol" document, they can easily load the function plug-ins they write into the main program "Fanglan Engine".
On the planning side, just move the button to achieve the desired function.
There are more talented people in the art industry, but fortunately, Li Youwei can be a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts, and he is naturally very capable, so he can hold the ground.
Coupled with the 3D scanning equipment provided by the upper circle, it can be said to be even more powerful, allowing them to combine reality and virtuality more quickly.
So the pace of the entire game department is developing rapidly.
In the past, Fangyuan used the three-dimensional map of Deer City as the version, and after calculation, it was used as a game scene map, which saved a lot of scene map production time.
But the real three-dimensional map is not so comprehensive after all, and many of them need to be improved.
But thanks to the concerted efforts of everyone, this map has finally begun to be improved. For example, some communities, interiors of houses, etc., are already accessible.
This is thanks to the credit of the Art Department. They probably made dozens of sets of real-world modeling based on the house area map and residential building drawings searched on the Internet, and then loaded them directly into the game map.
Although this is not perfect, it is already very good.
The only thing with a relatively large workload is various myths and secrets.
According to Dong Liqun's plan, the background of the game is a modern society with a revival of spiritual energy, and various myths and secrets will also appear in front of the world.
And each mythological secret realm is simply a copy of the game. In order not to fall into clichés, repeated scenes cannot be used in various mythical secret realms.
Mythological secrets are big and small, the small may be the size of a cave, and the large may even be a complete world.
There is even a secret realm in the secret realm. In short, it is extremely complicated, and its workload is naturally upside down.
So they divide the copies into small, medium and large copies.
They don't think about large copies and medium copies at all, and they focus all their energy on small copies.
But the world view of the large and medium-sized copies has already begun to prepare.
After understanding the situation, Fangyuan called everyone together for a meeting.
Not everyone participated, but leaders and technical backbones of various departments. Even so, the small conference room was full of people.
"A lot of people have come to the company for such a long time. It seems that I am giving you a meeting for the first time. My boss does not seem to be responsible." Before the meeting, Fang Yuan jokingly chatted with everyone.
Everyone laughed when they heard this. Of course, with Fangyuan's current identity, even if it wasn't funny, everyone would laugh happily.
Fang Yuan didn't care, but continued: "I just learned about your work in various departments. I am very satisfied with the progress of the entire game department, but the biggest problem now lies in the art side."
Li Youwei raised her hand when she heard the words and said that she had something to say. Fang Yuan stopped and asked her to say, "Boss, the world view of this game is too huge. Even if you have reduced the workload of the main world resources, each The resources of the copy are still numb to the scalp.
If you want to really make all the myths and mysteries, based on our current manpower calculation, I guess it will take at least several decades."
"I know, so for today's meeting, I will solve this problem for you." Fang Yuan said with a smile.
"Solved? How to solve it, do you hire more artists?" Li Youwei asked curiously.
"Recruitment is definitely still hiring, but hiring will not solve our fundamental problem. How many people? One thousand or ten thousand? How many art talents are there in Daxia? Can't we hire all of them? Besides, so many people, art The styles are different, and it is a big problem to unify them." Fang Yuan shook his head and said.
Everyone nodded when they heard the words, the world background of this game is too grand, not only involves the real society.
It also involves ancient myths. Each copy is a story, which is more troublesome than making a movie.
So everyone is very curious about how Fangyuan solves this problem.
"Everyone should have played business simulation games?" Fang Yuan asked, looking around.
Everyone nodded, not to mention the large-scale game like Sim City, similar to the mobile game like Dream Town, basically everyone has contact, especially girls, who play a lot.
"This type of game provides everyone with the same material, and then everyone can build their dream town, island or city according to their own ideas.
Can we use the same method?You only need to provide various materials, such as natural materials such as trees, stones, flowers and grass, and various architectural materials, and then automatically generate various mythological secrets through computer AI."
Everyone started to talk about it, because this method is really feasible.
But there are still many problems.
No, Dong Liqun first raised the question, "President Fang, your method is feasible and feasible, but the generated dungeon world must be disorderly, and each of the mythological secrets we need must have its own mythological characteristics. "
"So this is what you plan to do, and describe each mythological background in detail in words.
Then AI will evolve the required mythological secret realm to the greatest possible extent according to your requirements.
You can even add the races, appearance characteristics, skills, specialties, etc. you need in it, all of which can be directly evolved.
But you need to be as detailed as possible. For other special material requirements, you also need to discuss with the art side."
"President Fang, I am afraid this requires very high requirements for AI." A new programmer said.
"Don't you know what I do? Dabai's intelligent program is enough to do this, of course, the premise is that it has enough calculation ability." Fang Yuan said with a smile.
Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this. This is equivalent to leaving the art work to Dabai, and Dabai is a robot whose execution ability is based on calculation performance.
As long as it is given enough space for calculation, its efficiency will be a hundred, thousand, ten thousand times or even billions of times that of human beings.
"So this is another thing I want to say, that is, the company wants to form an IDC, and will have our own supercomputer." Fangyuan announced.
The most excited people in the conference room were the group of people in the program department, applauding eagerly.
"So, you need to re-adjust your work. The art department will sort out the materials first. The more detailed the better.
The planning department assisted, and the detailed information of various worlds was made into a standard format, and then submitted to the program department into a plug-in format.
I will do the specific function implementation. My program will read the requirements you extract in accordance with the standard format, so you must be more precise and don't miss anything.Fang Yuan exhorted.
After the meeting, everyone went to work with great enthusiasm, only Fang Yuan sat in the office, lost in thought.
Although I was in a meeting for everyone just now, when talking about using Dabai to evolve the secret realm, Fangyuan reminded more possibilities.
