We need various methods to develop MMORPG that is game genre which many users use among various game genre using Internet. Specially, to heighten efficiency of distributing work, Object-oriented language such as C++ is used and we need design techniques that can take advantage of enough object-oriented concept when making large-scale game. There is various pattern that can apply in software breakup design in GoF's design pattern for these design techniques. If you apply Observer pattern to Party System Design for forming community between game users, you can easily add new class and maintain system later. Party Play is one of the important system that is used to form game users' community in MMORPG games. The main point that must be considered in Party-Play-System is to divide evenly experience value and acquisition that is got by Party-Play among users according to each user's level. To implement Party Play System that consider maintenance of system, in this paper, we propose a method using GoF's Observer-Pattern, showing you that proposed method which has advantage to dynamic memory allocation and to virtual method call can be used usefully to change object to real time at program run and to add new class and to maintain system new.

Recently graphic hardwares have been developed remarkably, and domestic and foreign game users have demanded realistic and spectacular game graphics. Graphic special effects are one of methods to satisfy these requests, but we have not known any cases where graphic special effects are general and thus reusable. Based on the implementation of our graphic special effect engine and its application cases, this paper describes how to easily exploit graphic special effects in developing games. We define a standard file format in which special effect data can be saved and loaded, and thus those data can be reused easily. We also show that developers can test or preview special effects by exploiting our graphic special effect tool even before producing games.

Role-Playing Game (RPG)에서는 플레이어가 조종하는 캐릭터 외에도 컴퓨터가 조종하는 Non-Player Character(NPC)가 등장한다. 플레이어는 NPC와 이러한 상호 작용들을 통해 점점 게임의 세계관을 이해하면서 게임에 몰입할 수 있게 된다. 이를 위해서 일반적으로 시나리오나 세계관에 따라 필요한 NPC를 생성, 배치하고 적당한 대사와 퀘스트를 부여한다. 그러나 이러한 구조에서는 NPC는 항상 정해진 정적인 대사만을 할 수 있다. 그 결과, 플레이어들은 NPC와 플레이 시간이 길어질수록 반복되는 대사에 흥미를 잃고 점점 대사를 읽지 않고 진행에 필요한 부분만을 얻어내려 하게 된다. 또한 이러한 구조는 게임 콘텐츠를 추가하고자 할 때, 새로 생성하는 NPC의 대사를 전부 새로 작성해야 하는 단점도 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 동적인 게임 환경 구축을 위한 방법으로 온톨로지 기반의 대화 생성 시스템을 제안한다. 제안하는 시스템은 플레이어가 NPC와 대화하고 싶은 내용과 관련된 키워드를 제시하면 온톨로지를 이용하여 제시한 키워드와 관련이 있고, 현재 상황과 조건이 맞는 대화나 퀘스트를 제공한다. 그 결과, 유저와의 상호 작용이 중요해지므로 플레이어의 게임 몰입도를 더욱 높일 수 있다. 또한 시스템 구축 과정에서 생성되는 온톨로지를 이용하여 다른 다양한 기능들을 추론할 수 있는 장점이 있다.

This paper aims to study on attribute of interaction between user from cultural capital perspective of Bourdieu who expanded the concept of capital and presented class production and reproduction through 'World of Warcraft' play and analysis. The results of this study is that First, game ability showed properties of cultural capital that embodied, objectified, institutionalized. Second, the types of interaction by difference of cultural capital appeared that lurking, reciprocity, exclusion. This study identified game ability have attributes of cultural capital and that Due to the nature of the interaction for 'Disticion', individual actions are related to the process of accumulating power and contribute to class reproduction.

최근 3D 모바일 게임이 이슈가 되고 있다. 휴대폰이 필수품인 시대가 왔고 휴대폰만 있으면 어디서든 게임을 즐길 수 있다는 점 때문에 모바일 게임 산업은 급속도로 발전하고 있다. 그리고 점차 모바일 환경이 하드웨어가 발전하고 3D 가 지원되는 게임 전용폰이 나오면서 모바일 3D 게임이 많이 개발되고 있다. 그러나 휴대폰의 기본 기능은 통화하는 것이니 만큼 PC 에서의 게임이나 플레이스테이션 같은 게임기와는 구조에 차이가 있다. 모바일 환경에서는 휴대폰 버튼만을 사용하여야 한다는 제약이 있다. 그래서 현재 출시된 여거 모바일 게임의 UI 와 기존 PC 게임의 UI 를 비교하고 휴대폰이라는 제한된 환경에서의 도시경영 3D 시뮬레이션 게임을 위한 효율적인 UI 를 만들고자 하였다. 휴대폰에서는 마우스를 사용할 수 없기 때문에 기본적인 게임 조작은 전부 버튼으로 조작할 수 있게 하였다. 그리고 도시경영시뮬레이션 게임이기 때문에 일반 아케이드 게임이나 캐주얼게임에 비해 상대적으로 메뉴가 많고 복잡하다. 그래서 사용자가 설명을 바로 보면서 메뉴를 선택할 수 있도록 메뉴선택은 전부 숫자버튼을 사용하였다. 그리고 사용자가 메뉴를 외우고 있지 않아도 사용가능 하도록 화면 위에 메뉴설명이 같이 나오게 하였다. 사용자는 메뉴별 설명을 보면서 원하는 쪽으로 선택을 하게 된다. 지역설정에서는 마우스의 드래그기능이 안되기 때문에 처음시작점과 끝부분을 선택하여 마우스를 대신하였다.

It is said that today is an era of total cord characterized by the transition from the industrial society to the knowledge based and information one. In this age of total cord, the most complex media production is the game industry. In the game industry, game character as one of the elements of game production is the most important because it contains visual elements created through interaction with a user. Initial creation of characters in the game industry is considered having the most value-adding element. Character creation in game production begins with basic drawings, like a diffusive property of the production elements, and proceeds to complicated 2D game character illustration and 3D game character production. In addition, only when driving forces for game development such as individuality and virtual reality are based on different mind cord from existing one, foundation for it will be firmly established. Therefore, it is clear that understanding of the Importance of character illustration and original drawings in the game production is essential to successfully produce more perfect 3D game characters.

As the popularity of casual games, they are increasing the needs to satisfy personal dispositions and the gameplay requirements of the various users in the game development process. These require analysis of action patterns of gameplay of various users in the testing phase of the game development. In this paper, we propose a method to analyze action patterns of gameplay through Petri net model simulation with gameplay metrics data. The proposed method has practical simulation environments because of using gameplay metrics data, and it can analyze diversely like reachability, coverbility, and liveness given by Petri net model analysis. An application example of the proposed method using a Petri net modeling tool GPenSIM v4.0 is given to analyze the patterns of gameplay in game Pacman. The results of simulations is presented. The presented results show that the proposed method can analysis patterns of gameplay diversely.

The subjects of this study are Chinese players who have participated in public welfare games. SPSS24.0 and AMOS24.0 were used to analyze the data, including reliability analysis, validity analysis, correlation analysis, structural equation model verification and so on. The hypothesis results show that Trust-Aware is the most important motivation dimension that affects players' participation in public welfare games. Under the dimension of Performance Expectancy, the main influencing factors are players' needs for self-realization and concern for vulnerable groups. Perceived Risk and Social Influence are the motivational factors that influence players' participation in public welfare games.

The command that game users give should be reflected to the game immediately and should be transferred to several objects at once. Also, all game users who participate in game should keep the same progress situation in Real-Time Strategy game. But it takes a certain amount of time to get the command pass to other users, and it is important issue that many commands are synchronized in a short amount of time on server of RTS game. Therefore we propose a scheme for an efficient synchronization based on event locking method on RTS game in this paper. We design and implement the gaming server applying to our proposed scheme. Also, we show efficiency of our proposed scheme by performance analysis in this paper.
