Reborn to create a virtual world

After Lin Shu fooled his friends, he returned home in a happy mood.

It took him ten minutes to finish the homework assigned by the teacher, and then searched the Internet for the mainstream programming methods at this time.After finding the software he needed, Lin Shu stared blankly at the price—the software price was close to 1000 yuan, and he looked through his small wallet: there was only 46 yuan and [-] cents in it.

Lin Shu sighed—he never thought that the first thing he would do when he was reborn was to worry about 1000 yuan.But there was no other way but to find foreign aid.

As a result, as soon as he reached the door, he found someone opened the entrance door with a key and walked in.

"Father".

In a sense, this word, as well as the existence of the man who opened the door, made Lin Shu feel so heavy that it was indescribable, so heavy that Lin Shu felt that just seeing the other person made his chest suffocate.

When Lin Jinhua saw his precious son who was silently staring at him behind the door, he suddenly opened his arms and said, "Xiao Shu, come here and let Dad hug you!"

But Lin Shu slammed the door of the room shut in front of him.

Lin Jinhua felt puzzled by Lin Shu's abrupt behavior, so he turned to ask his wife, "What's wrong with Xiao Shu?"

Liang Yuehua heard Lin Shu say something like that yesterday, and his mood was quite complicated. Hearing Lin Jinhua's question, he replied casually: "Maybe you are angry? You have to socialize every day these two days, are you so busy? "

Lin Jinhua felt a little guilty at once, and after a while, he smiled apologetically, "Isn't my friend inviting me to dinner, am I embarrassed to refuse?"

After hearing this, Liang Yuehua said, "Don't go out tonight. Don't go out for the next two days... What do you mean by being away from home all day?"

Lin Jinhua was actually unhappy in his heart, but he didn't have the confidence to oppose Liang Yuehua, so he finally chose to change the subject and said, "I'll go and see Xiaoshu!"

——He walked to the door, knocked on the door, and called, "Xiao Shu? Xiao Shu?"

Lin Shu didn't want to talk to him.

He thought of his mother's death, of his father's messy relationship between men and women, of Lin Jinhua's change in attitude after marrying his stepmother...and finally, at the end, he chose to die because of cowardice and escaped, leaving Lin Shu alone to face the cruel reality. Selfish and hateful.

At that time, without Ju Mingfeng, Lin Shu could hardly have imagined what he would become in the end.

Sometimes he hated Lin Jinhua very much, thinking, why is it that other people's fathers are indomitable men, but his father is a coward who can't bear the responsibility?

But this is an unsolvable topic, because people are destined not to choose their origin.

And in fact, he has no right to hate Lin Jinhua, because no matter how sorry this person is to Liang Yuehua, Lin Jinhua dotes on his son very much.Although due to many reasons later, the two had more and more disputes and the contradictions became more and more acute, but it was not because Lin Jinhua didn't love Lin Shu, but because he was that kind of person.

Is the heart more important in this world?Or is behavior more important?

In Lin Shu's view, it was undoubtedly the latter.

Lack of proper heart will only make the life of the person concerned lack richness; while inappropriate behavior, incompetence, and lack will make relatives and friends suffer because of it.

Lin Shu knew that Lin Jinhua loved him as well as Liang Yuehua.But this kind of love can neither make him forge ahead, be strong, and take responsibility for his wife and children, nor can it make him be loyal, hardworking, and restrain his desires and vices for his wife.

What is the use of this kind of love...?

Lin Jinhua knocked on the door outside for a long time, trying to coax Lin Shu for a long time, but Lin Shu just hid in the room and didn't say a word, didn't speak, and ignored Lin Jinhua.In the end, Lin Jinhua really had no other choice, and said, "Xiao Shu, Dad must come home early every day. Otherwise, Dad will accompany you to surf the Internet later, and buy you the newly released game console, okay?" ?”

A while after Lin Jinhua said this, the door of Lin Shu's room opened slowly.

Lin Shu looked up at his father and said, "I don't want a game console. Buy me a software, and when I make money, I will pay you back."

Lin Jinhua looked at Lin Shu, who looked serious, not joking.

It's a pity that he is too young, so Lin Jinhua only finds such a serious attitude interesting and funny, so he squatted down, stretched out his arms to hug Lin Shu, and asked, "Okay, okay. What do you want?"

A string of English slipped out of Lin Shu's mouth.

Lin Jinhua was stunned for a moment.

Lin Shu knew that he didn't understand, so he explained, "It's a programming software."

Lin Jinhua didn't expect that what Lin Shu wanted was this kind of thing, he was startled and asked, "What do you want programming software for?"

Lin Shu replied: "Play games, sell money."

Lin Jinhua laughed: "Make games? How do you do it? Do you know how?"

"No, I can learn."

Lin Jinhua stretched out his hand to scratch the bridge of his nose, and said, "It's not so easy to learn, that's what people learn in college, but it's difficult, even college students find it difficult to learn."

Lin Shu then asked, "Then will you buy it for me?"

His tone was quite blunt, but Lin Jinhua didn't care, and said: "It's okay, it's just a software, I'll buy it for you. I'll buy whatever my precious son wants!"

He was smiling, as if he could answer whatever he asked for.

After hearing this, Lin Shu didn't feel much happier, but rather sad.

Lin Jinhua was still very conniving towards him at this time - and this made it even more abhorrent that his attitude changed after Liang Yuehua passed away.Where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather. The ancients never deceived me.

Fortunately, now Lin Shu still has a mother.

After getting the software, Lin Shu was eager to start using it.

He took a deep breath, feeling that he finally had a start before him, and then began to install the program on the computer, and at the same time opened the related tool set.

About eight hours later, his system completed the first knowledge system construction, and even built a virtual software model independently.This software model is gradually established with Lin Shu's reading process and observation and understanding of the software. It is exactly the same as the programming tool installed on the computer - from appearance to purpose.

After Lin Shu experimented, he found that he could program in his brain, and the speed was much faster than modeling on a real computer.As long as his thoughts flashed, the words in his mind began to arrange themselves quickly, and their combination did not appear letter by letter, but by paragraph by paragraph, or even by module by module. Built on the fly.

This was another unexpected surprise.

Since a complete software system was formed in his head, Lin Shu managed to understand the principle and composition of the entire system in only one night. He even suspected that his understanding and memory of the entire system were better than before. Designers understand more clearly, because it is impossible for designers to make software systems run directly in their own brains.

But there are still some modules in the real system that Lin Shu cannot understand.According to his analysis, this part should be a part that is not included in the reference books and the program functions on the surface. The system suggested that he directly de-analyze the program to gain an in-depth understanding.

This is a bit of a behavior within the scope of hackers.But Lin Shu is not rigid-he knows that many early domestic technologies were obtained in this way-whether it is precision machinery or electronic software.His only concern is that the anti-cracking and anti-analysis program carried in the software will harm the software and even the computer system.You know, he currently only has such a computer, and it is foreseeable that he will not be able to afford a second one on his own in the short term.

Fortunately, his luck was good, and the whole cracking process went smoothly.With the final analysis completed, the entire software was finally fully reproduced in his mind.

With the completion of the reproduction, there was an unexpected change in the system—in the originally empty program list, the Virtual Engineering (VE) project suddenly became the only program that could be selected to run, and Lin Shu's system had the first a softwear.

Lin Shu was most worried about the amount of work and code when making independent games, but he solved the problem under such circumstances.

The programming speed in the brain is simply against the sky, which reminds Lin Shu of the word "speed of thought".Almost as soon as he thinks of which mod or that piece of code to use, the system will quickly arrange it for him.And this is not like writing an article - writing an article itself requires thinking and careful consideration of the words used, and most of the grammar is fixed when programming, with a lot of repetitive structures, which means that its thinking speed can be faster Fast, slowing down only when specific program settings and data text need to be entered.

But this is already amazing, it gave Lin Shu the basic conditions to independently produce a small and medium game system in a short period of time.

Although the code still has to be entered into the computer in the end, Lin Shu has no good solution for this workload, but this is much better - being able to use this future system programming can at least allow Lin Shu to use his class time.Originally, the primary school courses were not difficult or attractive to him.

So next, Lin Shu lived a life of writing codes at school during the day and typing codes at home at night.

He has not yet considered which mode of engine to use, nor has he decided on the classification and selling points of the game itself, but it does not prevent him from coding out a few classic settings that every engine and game will inevitably have in the future.For example, the random route and the mood tree module - these are all classics that can be realized in the current system configuration after simplification, but play a decisive role in the authenticity and activation of the self-created plot system and the entire game world. set up.

They have become standard in game systems many years later, but in the past 20 years of game history, they have not been achieved overnight, but after many long-term improvements and evolutions of many games, they have reached a near-perfect state.

In RPG, the mood tree affects the character's combat effectiveness and negotiation ability. In the strategy, the mood tree affects the leadership ability and obedience. In the simulation development game, the mood tree affects the behavior direction and interaction options... Complete mood tree system There are very complex calculation methods that can make a character come alive in the game. Although it is not developed towards artificial intelligence, it has a certain intelligent behavior mode.

In fact, this pattern actually existed this year.

In the well-known game "The Elder Scrolls" series, almost all later game systems adhere to this basic setting.There are tens of hundreds of NPCs in each city in the huge map, and each NPC has its own personality traits, physiological state, job, camp, and basic stress response.

They go to the tavern or go home to eat when they are hungry, go home to rest when they are tired or dark, and when they talk, they express their opinions on specific topics, being pleased or irritated.They will fight back when they are stolen, and they will also be deceived by camouflage... Later, in the historical process part of the relevant courses, they were decisively listed as the pioneers of this type of system.

At the current level of technology, such a living city can almost be said to be amazing.

However, the later mood tree setting, in addition to the life characteristics, also added emotional characteristics to the game characters.

And as the module was gradually compiled, Lin Shu gradually had a final decision in his mind - ARPG or RPG are currently developing towards 3D graphics, and this type of game is beyond his ability alone; Strategy games can win with settings, but the problem is that the "open system" has the least impact on this type of game. If it is compared with the strategy games that are relatively good at this time and have their own self-modeling group functions, it is not The superiority of adding other composite factors is simply negligible, and if you add other factors such as role-playing or developing combat, the problem returns to the original point-the workload; action or fighting games obviously have the same problem.

So Lin Shu finally decided to choose the form of simulating the development of mixed love.

This form has many advantages, such as minimizing the proportion of 3D images, reducing the workload on modeling, and even completely abandoning this aspect. As far as Lin Shu knows, at this time, no other game of the same kind Works with 2D images are not uncommon, and they are not outdated either.

Lin Shu was not born as a major in art or animation. Although she can barely do 3D modeling, it is quite difficult.At this time, there are no professionals to help him. If this obstacle is bypassed, he personally feels happier.

In addition to this consideration, he also considered the market issue a little bit.The field of simulation and development games this year is simply a backwater—in fact, Lin Shu checked the game release statistics on the Internet, and it seems that since the past two years, there have been almost no commercial games of this type produced in China. Almost all simulation or development-type stand-alone games that are popular in China are imported from overseas.The online game market is very active, and other types of stand-alone games are still lingering.

However, excluding commercial output, various self-made non-commercial fan games emerge in endlessly.There are even online platforms dedicated to displaying such self-made works or fan works, and there are also prototypes of charging models.In Lin Shu's view, the market's desire for an open engine is still quite large, and it is worth a try.

But after confirming the design direction, Lin Shu encountered another problem.

This conundrum is fine art.

Lin Shu himself has no art or painting skills at all - that's okay, generally speaking, there are not many characters who have both these two skill trees, and most of them are teamed up to brush bosses.

If it was the past, Lin Shu would have two choices in this situation: when he has money, he can hire outside art designers; when he has no money, he can recruit a few small partners in the name of cooperation to share risks and profits.

But Lin Shu looked around melancholy at the group of little carrots who were around ten years old, and felt that the latter were even more unreliable than the former.

Where is he going to find a reliable partner?

Lin Shu thought so, but leaned on the chair and looked at the blackboard.

Then he watched the young trainee teacher Du Sitong smoothly draw a simple but very vivid chalk drawing on the blackboard——but it was an extremely realistic picture of flowers and birds.
