Based on the above noun meaning, in this application scenario, the clients in fig. 1 can be divided into a main broadcasting client and a spectator client. The anchor client provides an online live broadcast room in the live broadcast platform, and uploads online live broadcast content to the server, wherein the live broadcast content comprises but is not limited to group chat, live video, channel Karaoke, online games, online movies and the like. The server sends the on-line live broadcast content to the audience client end logged in the on-line live broadcast room for the audience client end to watch. During the process that the audience client watches the live content of the anchor client, the audience client can interact with the anchor client in voice or text, for example: the viewer client may send a gift, etc. to the favorite anchor client in the current live room.

It should be noted that the following embodiments of the present application will be described in conjunction with the above live application scenario. In the description process, repeated content related to the live application scene will not be described again.

The following description will first be made of an embodiment in which the execution subject is the client side.

In an embodiment, fig. 2 provides a virtual gift giving method, where the embodiment relates to a specific process in which a client sends a combined gift sending instruction generated according to a multi-selection operation triggered by a user on a gift panel to a server, so as to request the server to issue display information of a combined virtual gift corresponding to the multi-selection operation through the combined gift sending instruction, and perform display, as shown in fig. 2, the method includes:

s101, the client generates a combined gift sending instruction according to multi-selection operation triggered by a user on a gift panel, and sends the combined gift sending instruction to a server; the multi-selection operation is used for selecting multiple candidate gifts on the gift panel, the combined gift sending instruction is used for requesting combined display information of combined virtual gifts corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts from the server, and the combined display information comprises combined effect information and additional display information attached with gifts which are generated based on the multiple candidate gifts.

In this embodiment, the client may be one or more than one audience client in the live broadcast application scenario, and the sending of the combined gift sending instruction from the client to the server may be sent from one audience client to the server, or may be sent from a plurality of audience clients to the server at the same time, which is not limited in this embodiment. The gift panel is a control used for displaying all virtual gift icons and backgrounds in the current live broadcast room of the client, and a user can form gift sending behaviors by triggering the virtual gifts on the gift panel. For example, a user of the viewer client watches live content uploaded by a user of the anchor client in a current live broadcast room, when the user of any viewer client needs to present the anchor, a virtual gift to be presented is selected on a gift panel of the current live broadcast room, and the presentation instruction can be sent out by selecting the virtual gift and clicking the presentation.

The combined gift giving instruction represents an instruction triggered when a user of the audience client gives a virtual gift to a user of the main broadcasting client, and the instruction is triggered through multi-selection operation on a gift panel of a live broadcasting room when being triggered, wherein the multi-selection operation represents operation that the user selects various candidate gifts on the gift panel.

Based on a combined gift sending instruction triggered by a user, the client sends the combined gift sending instruction to a server, and the server is used for requesting combined display information of combined virtual gifts corresponding to multiple candidate gifts selected by the user from the server. Here, the combined gift names of the multiple candidate gifts represented by the combined virtual gift can be understood that, when the user selects the multiple candidate gifts on the gift panel of the client, only the individual icons of the multiple candidate gifts can be seen, and for the combined virtual gift formed after the combination, the user cannot see in the triggering stage of the combined gift sending instruction, so that after the client sends the combined instruction to the server, the server generates the combined display information of the corresponding combined virtual gift based on the received multiple candidate gifts and returns the combined display information to the client, and the client receives the display information of the combined virtual gift formed after the combination of the multiple candidate gifts selected by the client. The combined display information includes combined effect information generated based on multiple candidate gifts and additional display information attached with gifts, for example, the combined effect information may be generated by fusing the display information of the multiple candidate gifts, the additional display information is display information attached with gifts by the server according to the multiple candidate gifts, and the specific display effect of the combined effect information and the display information attached with gifts is not limited in this embodiment. Therefore, the manner of selecting the multiple candidate gifts on the gift panel can realize sending out the combined gifts of the multiple candidate gifts at one time, so that the convenience of sending the gifts in the live broadcast room can be improved, the manner of sending the gifts is enriched, and the flexibility of the manner of sending the gifts in the live broadcast room is improved.

Optionally, the manner of selecting a plurality of candidate gifts on the gift panel by the user may be direct click selection or voice instruction selection, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

For example, when each candidate gift is selected by direct clicking, reference may be made to fig. 3, where fig. 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of selection of a candidate gift on a gift panel; specifically, the candidate gift clicked on the gift panel in fig. 3 is enclosed by a frame, for example, a yellow frame, indicating that the candidate gift is selected; if cancellation is required, clicking again and the box on the candidate gift is cancelled, e.g., the personal ticket, guild ticket and ice cream in fig. 3 are all boxed to indicate that they are all selected.

When the voice command selection is adopted, as shown in fig. 3, the user may continue to perform voice recognition by clicking the voice button in fig. 3, and the client may recognize the name of each candidate gift spoken by the user and then frame the recognized gift to indicate that the candidate gift spoken by the user is selected. For example, in fig. 3, after the user speaks the voice, the client recognizes that the user is a personal ticket, a guild ticket and ice cream, and then frames the personal ticket, the guild ticket and the ice cream to indicate that all are selected. Fig. 3 is only an example, and in practical application, the position, the pattern, and the like are not limited as long as the functions of the present application can be achieved. It can be understood that after the user selects the plurality of candidate gifts, a pull-down interface can be further formed on the gift panel to display the related information of the plurality of candidate gifts selected by the user, wherein the related information includes, for example, the number, the name, and the like, so that the user can clearly see the selected plurality of candidate gifts, and the accuracy of the selection of the plurality of candidate gifts is ensured.

And S102, the client receives and displays the combined display information sent by the server.

Based on the combined gift sending instruction sent to the server by the client, the client receives combined display information returned by the server, namely the display information of the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts, and then displays the combined display information, namely displays the received combined effect information and the additional display information. For example, the combined display information is taken as animation special effect information, for example, the multiple candidate gifts are respectively spring festival scrolls, crackers and fireworks, and the combined effect information of the corresponding combined virtual gifts is combined by the animation special effects of the fireworks, the crackers and the spring festival scrolls, wherein the combination mode is not limited in the embodiment of the application; the number and the form of the additional display information attached with the gift are not limited in the embodiment, and the special effects can be achieved arbitrarily, for example, the special effects of houses, plunders, jewelry and the like.

Optionally, the client may display the combined display information in a specific display manner. The specific display mode can be issued by the server along with the combined display information or pre-stored by the client. For example, the client plays fireworks with the background, the foreground is played with the firecracker, the spring festival scroll shakes on the two sides between the foreground and the background, and the complimentary plusiers can hold the specific display that the jewels come out from the house and display on the direct broadcasting room interface.

In the virtual gift giving method provided by this embodiment, a combined gift sending instruction generated according to a plurality of candidate gifts selected by a user on a gift panel is sent to a server by a client, combined display information including combined effect information and additional display information attached with gifts of the combined virtual gift corresponding to the plurality of candidate gifts generated based on the plurality of candidate gifts returned by the server is received, and then the combined display information is displayed by the client. The giving mode of the virtual gift is more flexible; in addition, the sent combined display information not only comprises combined effect information generated based on various candidate gifts, but also comprises additional display information with gifts, so that the display information of the combined virtual gift sent according to the multi-choice gift is more diverse, and the diversity of the gift display information is increased.

In the above embodiment, when the user triggers the multi-selection operation on the gift panel, that is, when the user selects multiple candidate gifts on the gift panel, different triggering modes may be adopted according to different display interfaces of the gift panel. For example, if a gift panel of a live broadcast room supports direct selection of multiple candidate gifts simultaneously, the user may select directly; however, if the gift panel includes a multi-selection control, the user needs to trigger the multi-selection control first, and then select a plurality of candidate gifts after performing a gift multi-selection mode, thereby providing an embodiment, in which the step S101 includes: the client triggers a multi-selection control on the gift panel according to the user to enter a gift multi-selection mode; and the client generates a combined gift sending instruction according to a plurality of candidate gifts selected by the user in a gift multi-selection mode.

In this embodiment, the multi-selection control is a control for entering the gift multi-selection mode, for example, as shown in fig. 3, a button for opening multi-selection is provided below the gift panel, and after the user clicks the button for opening multi-selection, the client controls the gift panel to enter the gift multi-selection mode. Optionally, the manner for triggering the multi-selection control may also be implemented by a voice instruction, which is not limited in this embodiment.

After entering the gift multi-selection mode, the user can simultaneously select multiple candidate gifts on the gift panel, and the client generates a combined gift sending instruction after receiving the multiple candidate gifts selected by the user.

In this embodiment, the multi-selection control is arranged on the gift panel, and the multi-selection control is used for implementing a multi-selection mode of the gift, that is, in practical application, when a combined gift needs to be presented, the multi-selection control can be triggered to enter the multi-selection mode of the gift so as to select multiple candidate gifts to implement presentation of the combined gift, but if the combined gift does not need to be presented, the multi-selection control does not need to be triggered, under the circumstance, the situation that multiple gifts are selected due to misoperation cannot occur, and the possibility of misoperation is avoided on the basis of functional support. Therefore, the multi-selection operation of the gifts is realized through the multi-selection control, the combined gifts can be conveniently and quickly presented at one time, and the intelligence and the flexibility of the gifts are improved.

Further, in order to improve the accuracy of the multiple gifts selected by the user, the user may be prompted to perform secondary confirmation on the selected gifts when the gift sending instruction is generated, based on which, an embodiment is provided, after receiving the multiple candidate gifts selected by the user, the client may generate a display list for the multiple candidate gifts, where the display list is used to prompt to confirm the information of the multiple candidate gifts, and if the client confirms that the information of the multiple candidate gifts is correct, the client generates a combined gift sending instruction.

In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the client generates and displays a list of multiple candidate gifts selected by the user, for example, the list may be displayed in a pop-up window manner, and queries and prompts the user to confirm relevant information (such as names and numbers of the gifts) of the multiple candidate gifts and to send out the information directly; certainly, a confirm or cancel button may be arranged on the pop-up window, which is convenient for the user to interact with the client, where the display form of fig. 4 is only an example, and may be changed accordingly in practical application as long as the function of the embodiment can be implemented. If the user clicks the confirmation key, the client can receive the confirmation instruction to determine that the gift information on the display list is correct, and then the client generates a combined gift sending instruction.

In the embodiment, the client confirms the lists of the candidate gifts selected by the client user in a pop-up window mode before generating the gift sending instruction, and the gift sending instruction is generated and sent to the server only under the condition that the confirmation is correct, so that the accuracy of gift selection is ensured, and the intelligence of gift giving in a live broadcast room is improved.

In addition, when the combined gifts are presented in the live broadcast room, the combinable mode among the gifts is based on the support of the server, namely, the combined gifts can be presented when the client user selects various gifts arbitrarily, the combined gifts supported by the live broadcast room can be displayed in advance, and the client user can select the combined gifts conveniently. An embodiment is provided by a combination of gifts, the embodiment comprising: the method comprises the steps that a client receives a combined mode query request of candidate gifts triggered on a gift panel by a user and sends the combined mode query request to a server, wherein the combined mode query request is used for requesting the server to query all combined modes of the candidate gifts; and the client receives and displays all the combination modes of the candidate gifts returned by the server.

In this embodiment, if the client user needs to query a combination mode supported by a candidate gift, the client user triggers a combination mode query request of the candidate gift on the gift panel, and requests the server to query all combination modes of the candidate gift, where the mode triggering the combination mode query request may be to long-press the candidate gift. For example, referring to fig. 5, assuming that the client user needs to query the combination supported by the frozen watermelon, the client user triggers a combination query request for the frozen watermelon on the gift panel, for example, the combination query request for the frozen watermelon may be triggered by pressing the frozen watermelon for a long time.

After the client user presses a certain candidate gift for a long time, the client can receive a combined mode query request of the candidate gift, then the client sends the combined mode query request to the server, and displays after receiving all combined modes of the candidate gift returned by the server. Referring to fig. 5, after the client receives the combination mode of the frozen watermelon, the text message is displayed above the gift bar to tell the user that the frozen watermelon, the frozen durian and the frozen mango can be combined, that is, the combined gift special effect is obtained after the frozen watermelon, the frozen durian and the frozen mango are combined. Optionally, when the combined manner is displayed, different combined effects corresponding to different numbers can be displayed together when the gifts are combined, so that the user can know the corresponding number of the best combined gift effect obtained by the current candidate gifts, the combined gift giving manner can be further enriched, and the flexibility of the combined gift giving manner is improved.

It should be noted that, if the server receives the combination query request, and finds that the candidate gift does not support the combination mode, the server notifies the client, and the client can pop up a prompt message on the current gift panel to remind the candidate gift of having no combination mode.

In this embodiment, the client sends a combined mode query request for triggering a certain candidate gift on the gift panel to the server, so that all combined mode introduction information of the candidate gift can be requested, and then the client displays all combined mode introduction information of the candidate gift, so that a client user can conveniently know the combined mode of each gift, combined gift giving is accurately realized, and the intelligence of the combined gift giving mode is improved.

The following describes a process of displaying the combined display information after the client receives the combined display information sent by the server in fig. 2 by using several embodiments.

In one embodiment, the combined gift sending instruction comprises an identification of each candidate gift, a number of each candidate gift, a combined type of each candidate gift; the combination type is used for characterizing the application meaning of the candidate gift; the combined presentation information includes combined effect information corresponding to the combined virtual gift determined based on the combination type of each candidate gift, and additional presentation information corresponding to the combined virtual gift determined based on the identification of each candidate gift and the number of each candidate gift.

The combined gift sending instruction sent by the client to the server is generated based on the selection of multiple candidate gifts by the user, that is, the combined gift sending instruction carries the multiple candidate gifts selected by the user, so that the combined gift sending instruction needs to carry relevant information of each candidate gift, for example, an identifier of each candidate gift, the number of each candidate gift, the combination type of each candidate gift, and the like, in order that the server can accurately match the display information of the corresponding combined virtual gift after receiving the combined gift sending instruction.

The combination type represents the combined application meaning of each candidate gift, for example, the field type represents the combination type, the type is 3, which represents spring festival as an example, if the combination type of the candidate gift is 3, the combined gift application of the candidate gift is spring festival, and if the combination type of the candidate gift is firework, the combined gift application of the firework is spring festival as a further example, if the combination type of the firework is 3, the combined gift application of the firework is spring festival.

Assuming that the combined gift sending instruction triggers generation of three candidate gifts, wherein the three candidate gifts are fireworks, firecrackers and spring festival scrolls, and IDs of the fireworks, the firecrackers and the spring festival scrolls are 12, 13 and 14, respectively, the combined gift sending instruction carries IDs, gift numbers and gift combination types of the gifts, and specific examples thereof are as follows: [ giftfd ═ 12, number ═ 52, type ═ 1,2,3] ], [ giftfd ═ 13, number ═ 30, type ═ 3] ], [ giftfd ═ 14, number ═ 20, type ═ 3,4,6] ]; the combined salute delivery instruction shows that 52 fireworks are delivered, 30 firecrackers and 20 spring festival scrolls are delivered.

As can be seen from the above example, the combination type corresponding to fireworks is 1,2,3, the combination type corresponding to firecrackers is 3, and the combination type corresponding to spring festival scrolls is 3,4, 6. Suppose 3 represents spring festival, 2 represents christmas, 1 represents wedding, 4 represents meta-denier, and 6 represents morning, indicating that fireworks can be applied to the combined gift of spring festival, and can also be applied to the combined gift of christmas and wedding, and spring festival, both in the combined gift of meta-denier and in the combined gift of afternoon and spring festival. It follows that multiple gifts may have the same combination type, meaning that several gifts may be combined.

In combination with the description of the combined gift sending instruction, after receiving the combined instruction information, the server may determine, based on the combination type of each candidate gift, the combined effect information of the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts, and determine, based on the identifier of each candidate gift and the number of each candidate gift, the additional display information of the combined virtual gift. The combined effect information is generated based on the display information of each of the multiple candidate gifts carried by the combined gift sending instruction; the additional display information is display information given by the server, and the server is matched with different display information given by the server based on the identification and the number of the multiple candidate gifts carried by the combined gift sending instruction.

Optionally, when the client displays the combined effect information and the additional display information, the combined effect information and the additional display information can be displayed according to a specific display mode, a specific embodiment is provided, the candidate gifts selected by the user are fireworks, firecrackers and spring festival couplets, the additional display information issued by the server is animation special effect information of houses, gods and treasures, the combined effect information is formed by fusing respective animation special effects of the fireworks, the firecrackers and the spring festival couplets, and the additional display information is one or more of animation special effect information of the houses, the gods and the treasures.

Specifically, when the client displays the fireworks, the background can be played on the live broadcast room interface, the foreground can be played on the firecracker, and the spring festival scrolls can rock on two sides between the foreground and the background; if the additional presentation information attached with the gift is the animation special effect of the house, the spring festival scrolls are pasted on two sides of the eave in pairs; if the extra display information attached with the gift is the cartoon special effect of the plusier and the house, the plusier is opened from the inside of the house; if the additional display information attached to the gift is the cartoon special effect of the goddess, the golden treasures and the house, the goddess hold the golden treasures to come out from the house. Like this to the additional show information that attaches the gift the stack show on the basis of combination effect information show, and adopt specific show mode, richened the show mode of gift, improved the variety of live broadcast room gift show for the show of gift is more intelligent.

Optionally, when the client displays the animation special effect information, a user of the client can click the background fireworks, and then the client can play the animation special effect for releasing the fireworks from the background, or the user can click the firecracker and play the animation special effect for igniting the firecracker from the foreground, so that the interaction with the user can be increased, the intelligence of gift display in a live broadcast room can be improved by increasing the man-machine interaction mode in the live broadcast process, and the gift display mode is enriched. Optionally, the user click interaction in this embodiment may be set to have only one chance for each user, and the animation effect displayed after the interaction is only displayed in the live broadcast room of the click user, that is, the user only interacts with the client of the user in this embodiment, and the animation effect displayed after the interaction is only displayed at the client of the user, thereby avoiding other influences on the watching users in the live broadcast room.

In order to reflect that the combined virtual gift is different from the common single gift, when the client displays the combined display information of the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts, the client may also display icons of the combined virtual gift at the same time, and in one embodiment, the method further includes: the client receives a new icon of the combined virtual gift sent by the server; the new icon is synthesized by the server according to the icons of the plurality of candidate gifts; and when the client displays the combined display information, displaying a new icon.

The icon of the combined virtual gift does not exist in the client, and an icon needs to be newly generated when the gift sending behavior is realized, so that the new icon needs the server to synthesize the icons of multiple candidate gifts and sends the synthesized icons to the client. And after receiving the new icon, the client simultaneously displays the combined display information of the combined virtual gift and the new icon. Illustratively, the new icon is applied to streamlights and streamers at the time of client presentation. Thus, the virtual gift can be quickly and conveniently combined with the separate gift by the new icon.

In addition, when the client displays the combined display information of the combined virtual gift, if the combined display information still has the gift special effect information to be displayed, the combined display information can be arranged in the display queue and displayed according to the queue sequence. Illustratively, the gifts in the live broadcast room are respectively a large gift and a non-large gift, wherein the large gift represents a gift with an animation special effect, and if the combined display information has the animation special effect, the combined display information is arranged in a special effect display queue of the large gift, so that the display information of each gift is classified, queued and displayed, the display of the gifts can be effectively managed, and the efficiency of the display of the gifts is improved.

The combined effect information may be generated by fusing the display information of the multiple candidate gifts, the additional display information is the display information given by the server according to the multiple candidate gifts, and the specific display effect of the combined effect information and the given display information is not limited in this embodiment. For other principle limitations of the combined display information in this step, please refer to the description in the embodiment of fig. 2, which will not be described again.

S203, the server issues the combined display information to the client.

Based on the generated combined display information, the server issues the combined display information to the client. After the combined display information is sent to the client, the combined display information is used to instruct the client to display the combined display information, and for the process of displaying the combined display information, reference may be made to the description in the embodiment in which the client is an execution main body, which is not described in detail herein.

In the embodiment, the combined gift sending instruction sent by the client is generated by selecting multiple candidate gifts, and the combined display information of the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts is returned by the server after receiving the combined gift sending instruction.

The combined gift sending instruction sent by the client to the server aims to request combined display information of combined virtual gifts corresponding to multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction, but in practical application, the situation that the multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction do not support the combined gift exists, and under the situation, the server cannot return the combined display information of the corresponding combined virtual gifts. In response to this situation, an embodiment is provided that relates to a process for the server to legally verify whether a plurality of candidate gifts in a combined gift sending instruction support the combination, and in one embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, the embodiment comprises:

s301, the server determines whether the combined virtual gifts corresponding to the candidate gifts are legal or not according to the combination type of each candidate gift; if yes, go to step S302, otherwise go to step S303.

S302, the server generates combined display information of the combined virtual gifts corresponding to the candidate gifts;

and S303, the server issues the respective display information of the candidate gifts to the client.

In this embodiment, the combined gift-offering instruction includes a combination type of each candidate gift; for an explanation of the combination type, reference is made to the description in the client embodiment, which is not repeated herein.

Based on the combination type of each candidate gift in the combined gift sending instruction, the server determines whether the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts is legal.

Optionally, if the gift quantity of the same combination type in the combined gift sending instruction is larger than or equal to a preset threshold value, the server determines that the combined virtual gift is legal, otherwise, the combined virtual gift is illegal.

Specifically, after receiving the combined gift sending instruction, the server analyzes the combination type of each candidate gift in the combined gift sending instruction, compares whether the number of the same combination type in the analyzed combination types reaches a preset threshold value, and determines that the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction is legal if the number of the same combination type in the analyzed combination types is greater than the preset threshold value.

Illustratively, the combination type is exemplified by type, the preset threshold value is 3, the candidate gifts in the combined salute instruction are fireworks, firecrackers and spring festival scrolls, wherein the IDs of the fireworks, the firecrackers and the spring festival scrolls are 12, 13 and 14 respectively, and accordingly the combined salute instruction is exemplified by: [ giftfd ═ 12, number ═ 52, type ═ 1,2,3] ], [ giftfd ═ 13, number ═ 30, type ═ 3] ], [ giftfd ═ 14, number ═ 20, type ═ 3,4,6] ].

The server detects the number of times of repeated occurrence of the types in the combined gift sending, finds that 3 types exist in the number of the types which are 3, namely the number of the types which are 3 is equal to a preset threshold value, and meets the condition, determines that the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts is legal, and the server can generate the combined display information of the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts based on the multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction. If the number of the type values is not more than or equal to 3 as a detection result, the server determines that the combined virtual gifts corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts are illegal, and the combined virtual gifts are processed in a common gift mode, namely the combined virtual gifts are directly sent to the client to display information of the multiple candidate gifts.

In this embodiment, after receiving the combined gift sending instruction, the server verifies whether the combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction is legal by detecting the combination type of each candidate gift in the combined gift sending instruction, and executes the step of generating the combined display information only when the combined virtual gift is legal, otherwise, the server directly issues the respective display information of each candidate gift, so that the resource consumption of the server is saved, and the efficiency of gift presentation in a live broadcast room is improved.

For a specific process in which a server generates combined presentation information of combined virtual gifts corresponding to multiple candidate gifts based on multiple candidate gifts in a combined gifting instruction, an embodiment is provided, where the embodiment is implemented on the premise that the combined gifting instruction includes, in addition to a combination type of each candidate gift, an identification of each candidate gift and a number of each candidate gift, as shown in fig. 8, the embodiment includes:

s401, the server obtains the total value and the total quantity of the multiple candidate gifts according to the identification of each candidate gift and the quantity of each candidate gift.

In this embodiment, the server needs to obtain the total value and the total amount of the multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction, where the value of the gift can be displayed on the gift panel of the client, and meanwhile, the value is also stored in the server, and when the server stores the value of each virtual gift, the value of each candidate gift is stored in correspondence with the value, so that the server directly obtains the value of each candidate gift according to the identifier of each candidate gift in the combined gift sending instruction, and then multiplies the value by the number of each candidate gift, and finally sums up to obtain a total value, and at the same time, the total amount of each candidate gift in the combined gift sending instruction can also be obtained.

S402, the server determines bonus levels of combined virtual gifts corresponding to the candidate gifts according to the total value and the total amount; the additional presentation grade is used for representing the grade of the additional display information issued to the client by the server; wherein different bonus levels correspond to different additional presentation information.

And based on the total value and the total number of the candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction acquired by the server, the server determines corresponding additional gift grades, wherein the additional gift grades are used for representing the grades of the additional display information sent to the client by the server, and different additional gift grades correspond to different additional display information. That is, after the bonus level is determined, some extra presentation information is additionally given to the client according to the bonus level.

The server may classify the total value and total number of the plurality of candidate gifts into 3 grades in advance, each grade corresponding to a different bonus grade, each bonus grade corresponding to one bonus additional presentation information. Based on this, the server matches the total value and the total amount obtained in the above steps with the corresponding bonus grade. Illustratively, the total number of gifts exceeds 100 or the total value of the gifts exceeds 500 yuan, and the corresponding bonus grade is grade 1; the total amount of the gifts is 50-100 yuan or the total value of the gifts is 200-500 yuan, and the corresponding bonus grade is grade 2; the total gift amount is between 0 and 200 or the total gift value is between 0 and 200 yuan, and the corresponding bonus grade is grade 3.

And S403, the server determines additional display information of the combined virtual gift according to the bonus grade.

And for the determined bonus level, the server determines additional display information corresponding to the bonus level. Because each additional presentation grade corresponds to one additional presentation information, the server can also set the additional presentation information corresponding to each additional presentation grade in advance, and during actual application, the additional presentation information can be directly matched according to the additional presentation grade. For example, when the bonus level is level 1, the bonus level corresponds to the first additional display information; when the bonus grade is grade 2, corresponding to second extra display information; and when the bonus grade is grade 3, corresponding to the third additional display information. The display information specifically included in the first additional display information, the second additional display information, and the third additional display information is not limited in this embodiment.

Based on the above determined additional display information, the step S201 includes: the server determines combined effect information corresponding to the combined virtual gifts based on the combination type of each candidate gift, determines additional display information corresponding to the combined virtual gifts based on the identification of each candidate gift and the number of each candidate gift, and determines the combined effect information and the additional display information as combined display information.

The server determines what type of combined virtual gift is based on the combined types of the plurality of candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction. For example, the multiple candidate gifts are fireworks, crackers and spring festival scrolls, and only the number of types of 3 in the combined type of the fireworks, crackers and spring festival scrolls meets a threshold value, so that the combined gifts can be formed, and the type of 3 indicates the spring festival, so that the server forms the corresponding combined virtual gifts in the spring festival scene by the fireworks, the crackers and the spring festival scrolls, for example, the special effect information of the fireworks, the crackers and the spring festival scrolls is fused to obtain the combined effect information. The corresponding combined virtual gifts are determined according to the combination types, and different combined virtual gifts can be determined according to different combination types, so that presentation modes of the combined virtual gifts are enriched, and the flexibility of presentation in a live broadcast room is improved.

In addition, an additional gift grade is determined according to the total value and the total quantity of the fireworks, the crackers and the spring festival scrolls, and corresponding additional display information is determined according to the additional gift grade. Exemplarily, if the total value and the total number of the fireworks, the crackers and the spring festival scrolls are more matched with the grade 1 in the embodiment, the corresponding additional display information is determined to be gift special effect display information of the plusiers, the gold treasures and the houses; if the total value and the total number of the fireworks, the crackers and the spring festival scrolls are more matched with the grade 2 in the embodiment, the corresponding additional display information is determined to be gift special effect display information of the plutella and the house; if the total value and the total number of the fireworks, the crackers and the spring festival scrolls are more matched with the grade 3 in the embodiment, the corresponding additional display information is determined to be the gift special effect display information of the room.

Based on the combined effect information and the additional display information, the server takes the combined effect information and the additional display information together as combined display information of combined virtual gifts corresponding to multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction, and sends the combined display information to the client.

In this embodiment, the server determines that the combined presentation information includes combined effect information corresponding to the combined virtual gift and additional presentation information corresponding to the combined virtual gift, where the additional presentation information corresponding to the combined virtual gift is determined based on a total value and a total amount of multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction, which is equivalent to that the number and the value of the candidate gifts carried in the combined gift sending instruction sent by the client determine the additional presentation information that the server can give, and the combined type of the candidate gifts carried in the combined gift sending instruction determines the combined effect information generated by the server. Therefore, according to different candidate gifts selected by the user in the combined instruction, the server returns different combined display information, the presenting modes of the combined virtual gifts are enriched, and the diversity of the formed combined virtual gifts is increased.

In one embodiment, the client may query all combination modes of a candidate gift by sending a combination mode query request to the server, where the embodiment includes: the server receives a combined mode query request of candidate gifts sent by a client; the combined mode query request is triggered on the gift panel by a user and is used for requesting the server to query all combined modes of candidate gifts; and the server issues all combination modes of the candidate gifts to the client.

In this embodiment, after receiving a combination mode query request of a candidate gift sent by a client, a server queries the latest combination mode supported by the candidate gift in a background database, and then issues all combination modes of the candidate gift to the client. For the process of generating the combination query request and displaying all the combination ways of the received gift selection by the client, reference may be made to the description in each embodiment in which the client is an execution subject, and this embodiment is not described herein again.

In the embodiment, the server receives the combined mode query request which is sent by the client and generated by triggering a certain candidate gift on the gift panel, all the combined modes of the candidate gift are issued to the client, and then the client displays the introduction information of all the combined modes of the candidate gift, so that the client user can conveniently know the combined modes of the gifts, the combined gift giving is accurately realized, and the intelligence of the combined gift giving mode is improved.

In one embodiment, when sending the combined display information to the client, the server may combine multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction into a new icon, and the new icon is sent to the client together as an icon of a combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts, so that the client can conveniently display the combined display information. The method further comprises: and the server synthesizes a new icon of the combined virtual gift according to the icons of the plurality of candidate gifts and issues the new icon of the combined virtual gift to the client.

In this embodiment, the server may combine respective icons of multiple candidate gifts in the combined gift sending instruction into a new icon through the layout of the surrounding circles, and send the new icon to the client as a new icon of a combined virtual gift corresponding to the multiple candidate gifts to instruct the client to display, so that a user at the client can quickly and conveniently distinguish and combine the virtual gift and an individual gift by using the new icon.

The embodiments using the server as the execution subject and the embodiments using the client as the execution subject have an interactive relationship, and there is a description that partially overlapping contents exist, and the specific implementation processes of the embodiments of the present application are an entirety, and all the embodiments can be referred to each other.

In addition, a scene is provided, after the server is sent to the client side combined display information according to a combined gift sending instruction, the server can make corresponding division modes for the anchor and the live broadcast platform according to the total value of the current gift, for example, when the number of various candidate gifts and additional gifts additionally given in the combined gift sending instruction sent by the client side makes different proportions for the commission between the anchor and the platform, for example, when the client side triggers 6 gift special effects, the anchor commission becomes 6, and the platform is 4; when the client triggers 5 gift special effects, the anchor commission is divided into 5, and the platform is 5; when the client triggers 4 gift special effects, the anchor commission becomes 4 and the platform is 6. By setting different commission proportions for the background of the server, the development of a gift delivery mode of a live broadcast room can be promoted.
