Abstract
This application discloses a method for determining a posture of a virtual object in a virtual environment performed at an electronic device. The method includes: determining at least one sampling point of the virtual object; determining a normal direction of the virtual object relative to the ground according to the at least one sampling point and the ground on which the virtual object is located; determining a ground-hugging posture of the virtual object in the virtual environment according to the normal direction; and rendering the virtual object in the virtual environment according to the ground-hugging posture. The normal direction of the ground on which the virtual object is located is determined according to the sampling point, and the ground-hugging posture of the virtual object in the virtual environment is obtained according to the normal direction.
