Title:
IMAGE GENERATION DEVICE, GAME MACHINE AND IMAGE GENERATION PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2010026903
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide image generation technology for representing natural and highly-realistic atmospheric fluctuation even in a game machine having severe restrictions on hardware.

A board polygon arrangement part arranges a board polygon in front of a virtual camera (a viewpoint) disposed inside a virtual three-dimensional space such that the board polygon overlaps an area wherein the atmospheric fluctuation is to be produced in the virtual three-dimensional space. Specifically, the board polygon arrangement part arranges the board polygon bo such that the board polygon bo overlaps the area wherein the atmospheric fluctuation is to be represented (i.e., a background area wherein the atmospheric fluctuation is to be represented) in front of the virtual camera ca. By sequentially mapping a plurality of textures each representing the atmospheric fluctuation to the board polygon bo, the atmospheric fluctuation is represented.
