ABSTRACT:
To provide a data processing apparatus wherewith the work volume required to produce game characters is reduced. The image data processing apparatus is an apparatus for placing a plurality of polygons at predetermined positions, based on position information that places a reference polygon on a screen, applying predetermined texture to the polygons, and thus producing game character data. The game character data200comprise distance information and placement angle information for a torso polygon201, a head polygon202, wrist polygons203R and203L, and ankle polygons204R and204L. A processor computes the torso polygon based on placement information for the torso polygon201on the screen (processing routine1), and computes the head polygon202, wrist polygons203R and203L, and ankle polygons204R and204L from the distance information and angle information (processing routine2).
