Sound source determining method and apparatus, and storage medium

An apparatus for determining characteristics of a sound source, comprising:

• a memory operable to store program code;
• and
• a processor operable to read the program code and configured to:
• acquire a first position of a first virtual role controlled by an application client in a virtual scene;
• detect, in a sound source detection area associated with the first position, a second position of a sound source virtual object in the virtual scene;
• determine transparency of a position mark that matches the sound source virtual object, according to a sound source distance between the first position and the second position, the position mark identifying the second position of the sound source virtual object;
• in response to a plurality of sound source virtual objects being detected and located in different directions of the first virtual role, display, for each of the plurality of sound source virtual objects, a position mark of the each sound source virtual object according to transparency of the position mark of the each sound source virtual object on an interaction interface of the application client;
• display a map on the interaction interface of the application client, the first position corresponding to a third position on the map;
• and
• display the position mark of the sound source virtual object at a fourth position on the map, wherein the fourth position relative to the third position reflecting a direction of the second position relative to the first position.

A non-transitory machine-readable media, having processor executable instructions stored thereon for causing a processor to:

• acquire a first position of a first virtual role controlled by an application client in a virtual scene;
• detect, in a sound source detection area associated with the first position, a second position of a sound source virtual object in the virtual scene;
• determine transparency of a position mark that matches the sound source virtual object, according to a sound source distance between the first position and the second position, the position mark identifying the second position of the sound source virtual object;
• in response to a plurality of sound source virtual objects being detected and located in different directions of the first virtual role, display, for each of the plurality of sound source virtual objects, a position mark of the each sound source virtual object according to transparency of the position mark of the each sound source virtual object on an interaction interface of the application client;
• display a map on the interaction interface of the application client, the first position of the first virtual role corresponding to a third position on the map;
• and
• display the position mark of the sound source virtual object at a fourth position on the map, wherein the fourth position relative to the third position reflecting a direction of the second position relative to the first position.
