Abstract
A method of generating an image frame for depicting a posing of a character in a game is disclosed. A dominant atom from a set of active atoms associated with the character is determined. A motion controlling ability from a plurality of abilities of the character is determined. A motion fragment for the dominant atom is determined based on pose data and future trajectory data in a motion library associated with the dominant atom; A predicted future trajectory of the character is calculated. Based on a detection of a future collision or problem between the predicted future trajectory and an environment within the game, a combined future trajectory is calculated based on the predicted future trajectory and an additional future trajectory. The character is posed in the image frame based on a weighted combination of poses associated with the set of active atoms.
