Image processing apparatus and image processing program

摘要

A course CR is set in a virtual space SP along which a player character CH can move. The player character moves freely on the course, as long as it does not run off the course. In the course, a reference moving path is set indicating a standard moving path of the player character. A camera path of a virtual camera is set along the reference moving path. In the reference moving path, a object corresponding position (CP) is determined corresponding a position (CH(X,Y,Z)) of the player character in the virtual space. A position corresponding to the object corresponding position and a photographing condition are determined for the virtual camera.

主权项

1. An image processing apparatus, comprising,
virtual space generating means for generating a virtual space; object setting means for setting an object in said virtual space; virtual viewpoint setting means for setting a display image in said virtual space; movement path setting means for setting a reference movement path for said object in a course on which said object moves in said virtual space; movement operation means for moving said object on the course in said virtual space; and object-corresponding position calculating means for calculating an object-corresponding position on said reference movement path corresponding to an actual position of said object on the course; and wherein said object-corresponding position and said actual position differ for at least a portion of the course on which said object moves; wherein said virtual viewpoint setting means sets a virtual viewpoint position and an image rendering state thereof, the virtual viewpoint position differing from said object-corresponding position while having a correspondence with said object-corresponding position, thereby allowing display of the display image including said object; and wherein said object-corresponding position is a point on said reference movement path nearest from the actual position of said object.
