Title:
WATER SURFACE IMAGE FORMING METHOD, COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM FOR REALIZING IT, AND GAME SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3445568
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming method capable of expressing a dynamic water surface of sufficient quality with a low computing load.
SOLUTION: A water surface model 1 is constructed by combining multiple polygons 2, 2, etc. A texture 3 representing a water surface pattern to be mapped to a plurality of polygons 2 included within a predetermined range of the water surface model 1 is prepared. On the basis of information designating the motion of the water surface, coordinates of the vertical direction (Y-axis direction) of apexes of each polygon 2 are varied, and the texture 3 is mapped on each polygon 2 while a correspondence relationship between the apexes of the polygon 2 included within the predetermined range and the coordinates on the texture 3 is varied according to a vertical coordinate change of the apexes.
