1月30日 The Sims 3 VIP 報導







這是1月30日美國官網的 VIP 的報導。

本來想早些翻譯出來,但是過年很鬆散,而且最近很忙。

就拖到現在。這個人 Eric Holmberg-Weidler 所敘訴的模擬市民3的世界看起來很美麗。

希望我的中文夠好你們能夠想像那個情景。



Hello Sims Fans!

模擬市民的粉絲們大家好:



My name is Eric Holmberg-Weidler and I am one of the designers on The Sims 3.  With the new game we’ve added a plethora of items to grow, catch, and create that translate into skills for your Sims.  Two examples of this are in the gardening skill and fishing skill.  There are over twenty varieties of fish to catch, scattered across various beaches and lakes around town.  Some of the rarest fish can only be found in special locations around the neighborhood, or only at specific times.  An example is the experimental robot fish, which can only be caught behind the science facility.  Once caught, fish can be used for many purposes.  Two of my favorites are purely for collecting: you can mount any fish you catch on the wall, or if you prefer to keep your fish alive, you can put them in fish bowls and display them around your house.



我是 Eric Holmberg-Weidler(當然我不是,我是Amy!),我是模擬市民3的設計者之一。這個新遊戲(模3啦!)我們增加了很多(他的用字是過多的) 可以種植、捕抓和創造的物品,這些物件可以讓小人增加技能的。其中兩個例子是花園和釣魚的技能。在社區大約有超過20種不同品種的魚,你可以在社區附近的海灘、湖泊裡補抓。還有一些比較少有的品種必須在一些特殊的地方或是特殊的時間才抓的到。其中一個例子是實驗用途的機械魚,必須在科學機構的建築物後面才能 被找到。當魚被抓到後,有很多不同的用途。我最喜歡的兩個用途之一是單純的當作收集品。你可以將收集到的魚放在牆上當裝飾品。或者你喜歡看活著的魚,也可以放到魚缸裡面給大家欣賞。






The gardening skill also has many different fruits and vegetables to discover and grow.  This includes old favorites like the money tree, and many new types of plants including a special sort that will allow you to grow almost anything from eggs (not your normal type of eggplant!) to steak, as well as much more.  Some of these rarer plants can only be obtained after completing special opportunities, exploring out of the way parts of town, or even by fishing them up.



花園的技能包含了發現許多不同的水果和蔬菜和種植。當然包含了大家都喜歡的模幣樹,也有很多新的植物。其中包含了一個植物可以讓小人種植蛋(不是普通的茄子,因為茄子在英文叫做 Eggplant蛋植物)或是牛排。有一些稀少品種植物會在完成某個任務或是機會卡時得到。所以讓小人到社區裡四處探索吧! 說不定還能夠釣到特殊的植物喔!




I have to say my favorite types of collection in The Sims 3 aren’t tied to skills at all.  These include the ability to collect all sorts of insects, butterflies, and beetles, as well as space rocks, minerals, and even gems.  We’ve tucked these all around the neighborhood for you to find and collect as you play.  Once you’ve found something cool, you usually have several options with what you want to do with it.  It can be quite lucrative to find gems and sell them, or if you like the way they look, you can put them on display.  Raw gems can be sent out to get cut into one of many different shapes of polished gemstone.  Space rocks can be displayed in their raw form, although they won’t all conveniently fit in your house, as some are bigger than your Sim!  Insects can be named and kept around the house as pets in terrariums, and minerals can even be smelted into bars.  Want a treasure room stacked with gold bars?  Go ahead! 



我最喜歡模擬市民3的 "收集物件" 其實和技能並沒有相關的。這些包含了可以收集各種不同的昆蟲、蝴蝶和甲蟲。還有太空岩石、礦石、甚至於寶石。你可以在社區的各個地方找到這些物品。當你找到某個很酷的物品,通常會有幾個不同的選項讓你處理這個物品。而且如果小人找到寶石還可以發一比小財呢! 或是你喜歡寶石的樣子,可以放在家裡讓大家觀賞。沒有處理的寶石可以被送去裁切成不同的美麗的形狀。太空岩石可以直接放在家中被欣賞。不過可能無法放進家 中,因為太空岩石可以比你的小人還大呢! 昆蟲可以由你來命名然後養在箱子當寵物。礦石也可以被熔化做成條狀的。如果你想要一個寶藏房間堆滿了金條? 沒問題!



When these collectables are put on display in your house, they can make a big difference in how happy your Sims are when nearby.



當你的房子裡放置了許多這些收集品,將會讓你的小人們在靠近這些物品時感到很快樂。
