Rebirth of the big era of online games

Chapter 238 Game Engine Architecture Scheme
Zhang Ying, Zi Yuan, and Kai Wu, as the boss's assistant and secretary, since Fang Jie stayed at school, they naturally followed suit.

Among the three, Zhang Ying is the oldest and has excellent professional quality. He didn't know much about the company just now, and the company's administrative affairs are a mess, so he entered the working state on the first day of work, and he was very busy.

Its duties are mainly to help Fang Jie sort out and deal with various complicated and trivial administrative affairs based on his own professional knowledge. When encountering matters that require the boss to make a decision in person, he will record the priorities and attach his own professional suggestions, and then find Time to submit to Fang Jie for approval.

On the contrary, Ziyuan has almost nothing to do. Her duty is to follow Fang Jie's arrangement for everything except answering the phone. Even if it is printing a document, she will only do it when Fang Jie orders it. , in short, this is a tool man who does not need to exert subjective initiative.

Fang Jie needs such a brainless tool person around him now, simple, reliable, faithfully executing orders, not talking nonsense, not doing things on his own, and not spreading around, this is very good, and this is why he chose Ziyuan to be his secretary in the first place reason.

As for Kaiwu, a special existence exists.

His current job is to work part-time as a driver, part-time bodyguard, part-time staff member, part-time personal doctor, and part-time game booster for Fang Jie...

Yes, Fang Jie's game account in "Wulin" is now supported by Kaiwu, which can be regarded as the boss's personal power leveling.

In addition, I occasionally participate in some game planning and programming discussions, which can be regarded as part-time planning and part-time programming.

In short, this person seems to do everything, but he can do nothing. He is said to be an assistant, but in fact he should be an assistant in essence.

But he was also arranged by Fang Jie as a part-time inspector, who has the power to supervise and inspect the company's internal employees for violating discipline and regulations, so he is still a Jinyiwei factory employee?
In short, strange people do miracles.

For example, after Kaiwu got Fang Jie’s game account and started using plug-ins, he, who already knew computer programming, immediately became interested in plug-in technology. After consulting Fang Jie for a while, he couldn’t start Clean up, many powerful plug-in functions in the future were further developed by him...

Not to mention these three, early in the morning, Wang Yu chased after the school after attending the company headquarters meeting.

The boss said that the game engine needs to be handled by himself. If it wasn't for this, Wang Yu wouldn't have the confidence to build the game engine in the short term, so the most important thing now is to hug the thigh of the god, otherwise this matter He can't play it alone.

"This is the game engine architecture plan that I designed according to your wishes during the Chinese New Year. Please take a look at it."

In the office, Wang Yu unfolded the laptop bought by the company for reimbursement, opened the PPT presentation file, and explained to Fang Jie: "You said that you want to build an open game engine platform, so those game engines that exist abroad will not Very applicable, they are all for single-player games, especially the No.1 3D gun game, such as Thor Engine, Unreal Engine, etc.”

"As for our Boiling games, the main energy or demand is currently concentrated on online games such as MMOPRG, and they are of the 2D type. Of course, we will definitely make 3D games in the future, but considering the time constraints and heavy tasks, I mean first Come up with a 2D game engine suitable for online games, and use this as a framework to expand its functions in the future.”

Fang Jie nodded and said: "This idea is correct. Those foreign game engines will freeze once there are too many people on the same screen, so they are not suitable for online game engines. Another thing to consider is that domestic consumption In terms of level and computer hardware prices, it is necessary to consider whether ordinary computer configurations can drive the game, at least the average configuration of computers in Internet cafes should be used as the standard.”

"I've already considered this." Wang Yu smiled, "So based on the above ideas, I made a frame diagram of the game engine subsystem."

Wang Yu called up the corresponding PPT manuscript, pointed to it and said: "First of all, the hardware application platform of the game engine. I set the PC side and PS side. That is, the computer and the home game console..."

Before he finished speaking, Fang Jie interrupted: "No, the PC and PS terminals are not enough, at least the mobile terminal and the TV terminal must be added."

"This……"

Wang Yu was a little puzzled: "I can understand the TV side. When we used to play the Xiaobawang game console, it was through the TV. But the mobile phone side...Nokia launched the first WAP mobile phone 99 in 7110, which can play gluttony. Snake game, but our game engine also supports this mentally handicapped game?"

Retarded?

Snake game is not mentally retarded at all.

Of course, this question is not important.

The important thing is that Fang Jie is well aware of the importance of mobile and TV games. Mobile games are no nonsense, and TV games are not the ones from the era of Xiaobawang, but involve VR technology. This direction is likely to become a relay mobile game.

However, it was only at the beginning of 2001 when computers began to become popular, and mobile phones were still relatively expensive luxury electronic devices. With Wang Yu’s imagination, it is impossible to imagine how the mobile terminal will gradually erode the PC terminal market 10 years later. of.

However, there is no way to explain this matter, and it is estimated that people will not believe it if it is explained. Fang Jie just said: "Since it is a game engine framework, it is necessary to reserve some other hardware platform ports by default. It doesn't have to be now. Just develop this kind of subsystem, but you must have a forward-looking and strategic vision. And the mobile phone terminal, when I have money, I will consider launching our own brand mobile phone, operating system and mobile terminal games. "

It was the first time for Wang Yu to hear that the boss was going to deploy the mobile terminal industry. While he was shocked, he also agreed with Fang Jie's idea.

If Boiling Games really develops its own brand of mobile phones, then mobile games must be developed, so the game engine will naturally provide corresponding support, there is no problem.

After digesting this matter, Wang Yu continued to introduce: "The software operating system platform is currently considered within the framework of the Windows operating system...Of course, if you consider the mobile terminal, then Nokia's Symbian system..."

This sentence was interrupted by Fang Jie: "For the time being, only consider the WINDOWS operating system. The Symbian system is directly PASS. At that time, we will develop a mobile operating system by ourselves. If possible, in the future, PC terminals such as WINDOWS The operating system will also develop itself."

"Ah this..."

Wang Yu was stunned for a while, seeing Fang Jie's serious expression, he had no choice but to say, "Okay."

According to his thinking, the boss's plan to build a mobile phone operating system by himself is already awesome enough, but he still wants to replace it with WINDOWS. This is beyond his imagination and ability, so the boss can do whatever he wants. I have nothing to say.

"The next step is third-party software tool development kits and plug-ins..."

After saying a word, Wang Yu glanced at Fang Jie's face, and continued: "We have to spend money to find a foreigner to buy a license. If we develop it ourselves, one is that we lack relevant development talents, we don't have the technical strength, and the other is that we don't have a license." At that time..."
