Endless Rebirth

In the R&D laboratory of Big World, people were coming and going, each performing his or her duties. Yu Yanling and Chen Feng walked into the area of ​​the art team in a very low-key manner, secretly introducing some situations.

Chen Feng has very high requirements for the big world, which makes his subordinates miserable. He strives for excellence in game production, but the price is to overturn and start over again. Even small details need to be discussed for a long time, and often no good results can be obtained. Rest affects the body.

After Yu Yanling accepted the job at the base, she made some reforms to Laboratory No. [-], re-divided the work areas, broke up all aspects of the game, and distributed them bit by bit. In this way, although it increased the difficulty of management, But the efficiency has improved a lot.

As far as the art team is concerned, there are several teams working on the characters, such as Confucian characters, Legalist characters, etc. They are responsible for designing character models, and then designing the clothes of the time based on historical records.

Each group is independent but interrelated, because many things cannot be completed alone. For example, when designing character models, the background of the times and current trends must be taken into consideration, so the character group needs to communicate with the historical materials group.

This is a very complicated job that requires everyone's unity and cooperation. The only thing that makes everyone feel lucky is that the existence of the butler can greatly ease these trivial tasks. If you have any doubts, you can also directly talk to the butler online. Search for answers or directly contact authoritative professors and experts in various fields from various places.

Laboratory No. [-] has been established for more than three years. Although the work is boring, the progress is gratifying. Because the world built is too huge, it consumes everyone's energy and also fills everyone with expectations. Some employees have even fully adapted to the work and have changed. Become proficient.

Although Chen Feng had some understanding of the situation here, this was the first time that he had been so deeply involved in everyone's lives. He did not disturb everyone's work, but with the help of Yu Yanling, he got to know each group and their work system.

It took three hours just to wander around. From downstairs to upstairs, there were thirteen floors and two buildings. Every employee who saw Chen Feng just said hello and continued to work. It was not that they didn't I understand etiquette, but I am really busy at work.

Chen Feng didn't care either. He understood very well and just talked to Yu Yanling in a low voice.

Finally, they arrived at the core laboratory on the roof of the building. Here, game engineers constructed the plot and set tasks for the game. Everything was very precise and there were no contradictions.

The professors are not here. They only need to sort out the history through the housekeeper in the dedicated data room and check for omissions and fill in the gaps.

They only need to speak and directly control the voice, and with the help of the butler's power, they can find every piece of information and deduce every piece of history. This kind of pleasure is difficult for ordinary people to experience.

When Yu Yanling brought Chen Feng here, a group of engineers were gathering together. After Chen Feng learned about it, he realized that they were testing a game.

Chen Feng folded his arms and watched with interest.

The huge virtual screen slowly rose from the central console, and the symbol representing the big world appeared, then turned into a stream of light and collapsed, and the words "big world" appeared from far to near like a shooting star.

Like all online games nowadays, after the game is started, the game interface appears directly. The difference is that male and female characters cannot be set here.

Instead, you have to enter your ID number, and the housekeeper will connect and match with the household registration database. Whether you are male or female will be directly verified through the ID number.

Players only have the right to name and modify the character's appearance.

Of course, this is only in the online game mode. If the development of the virtual helmet is completed, then these will be completely different. The specifics will need to be redesigned.

The engineer entered his ID number, created a character directly, named Tian Lanlan, and logged into the game.

Blue sky, vast forests, majestic mountains, large cities...

Scenes appeared in front of everyone. This was a pre-Qin expansion film. The whole picture was full of ancient style. From the appearance alone, the characters in the game completely conformed to historical descriptions.

However, Chen Feng frowned.

The reason is simple, the characters in the game are too rigid.

The designed dialogues and pre-stored task templates don't look much different from online games on the market. Although Big World uses large-scale 3D technology, it is stiff and rigid, which is very inconsistent with Chen Feng's expectations.

However, even though he was dissatisfied, he did not show it. Instead, he watched the engineer operate the character, conduct tasks and related training and other gameplay tests.

Tests like this are conducted hundreds of times every day, and each group must conduct them, mainly to detect certain failures or modify some details.

In this test, engineers focused on testing the adventure system and the acceptance of historical missions. In addition to dialogue, they also had to carefully correct the plot.

The work is tedious and necessary.

The engineers started discussing when the characters were walking around. Obviously, they were not satisfied with this fool-like operation method. There were also certain problems with the triggering of system tasks.

Chen Feng saw everyone in high spirits and walked out alone without disturbing them.

Declining Yu Yanling's following, Chen Feng secretly contacted Mei Niang.

"Can you make the system characters intelligent? At least have some reactions, so they don't stand there like zombies all the time?" Chen Feng asked.

"Yes," Mei Niang said, "Meiniang can improve the butler's intelligence, but give each virtual character an expression simulation system based on the historical background."

"Is it just their expressions? What I want is for them to be more human-like!" Chen Feng said dissatisfied. ,

"If the boss can open up permissions, then Mei Niang can ask the housekeeper to generate a pseudo-intelligent group system," Mei Niang said: "It is equivalent to installing an intelligent assistance system for each virtual character. Although it still follows the established routine, it can Make them look very real."

"Can't we achieve true intelligence?" Chen Feng said regretfully.

Without real intelligence, the game would not be perfect and would not meet his expectations. To be honest, it would be a failed product.

"If you wait for Mei Niang to advance to advanced intelligence, it may be possible." Mei Niang said: "Real intelligence, even at the elementary level, is almost impossible for these virtual characters. In addition to opportunity, it also requires hardware configuration. Maybe wait. Only when all the expansion packs are completed will there be a chance.”

The virtual character in the game is different from Mei Niang. Mei Niang was created by Chen Feng directly extracting the source code from his memory. It was a coincidence and the power of fate.

As for virtual characters, even Mei Niang is powerless.
