This is the best camera mode tutorial I’ve seen. No unnecessarily long intro, you time stamped, and the entire video is very concise and to the point. Deserves more views so it’ll show at the top of the search. Seriously, I clicked off of at least 3 others within the first 30 seconds. Your mic is great; zero echo or “empty room static” noise. My auditory processing difficulties appreciate both that and the fact that you put the bullet points in writing on the screen.
I’m so glad the video worked for you! And thank you for taking the time to comment, it’s really means a lot to know that my time making the video was worth it. Thank you!
Thank you so much! I’m relatively new to The Sims 4, and a lot of people tell me that building is easier when you use both the sims 4 camera and the sims 3 camera, but I didn’t know how to use them-until now!
I've always wondered if there's a way to change the angle to vertical, or tilt the camera, do you know? Maybe by modding? Can't seem to find any mods for the cinematic camera.
might be embarrassing to admit buuuut... i've been playing sims 4 since 2015, and only NOW with your tutorial i finally understood the sims 3 camera!! forever grateful, thank you
hi can you please help me when i tried to change the video camera in external settings when i went to save it, it didn't automatically saved it and only made me try to save it as (save as then into a txt document ) how do i make it save automatically so that it can work for my game
Hi, I've noticed a lot of youtubers playing sims while the walls are up, can you please explain how? I've been looking everywhere. Or can this video apply?
There is a little arrow button on the top right that changes your walls, you can also press the home and end keys on your keyboard to change them as well!
Hey can u help me?? I can’t rotate or go foward or anything with it exiting me out the game or pulling up random things outside sims as if I’m not playing sims?
hi, it's beautifully explained. But I still don't understand how to rotate the camera from the sims 3 on macbook. I'm just a little confused. Could you please advise me?
I never used the sims 3 camera when I had a macbook, but google says to try "Press Command and the up/down arrow ⇵" and "If you have a Trackpad you can also hold down CTRL and right click while swiping up and down." Let me know if that works for you!
When I rotate using the right mouse, the mouse on the screen also moves around as if im not rotating it but it is roating. I hope this makes sense haha. Like when you rotate the mouse stays in place and mine doesnt.
I've only played The Sims 3 for a very short amount of time when my uncle Doug had it on his PS3 or PS4 years ago and at the moment, I only have The Sims 4, but in my opinion, The Sims 3 camera is easier to use than The Sims 4 camera. 🤣 RIP, uncle Doug! I love you and miss you every single day. 💕
It seems to be a new feature to me, but I do not know. I like to push my camera around by moving the cursor to the edge of the screen, but coming back to the sins 4 anytime the cursor is over any interface on the edges of the screen it won't pane the camera, seems like a new feature, and a dumb one. I have only ever played the sims with just a mouse or; atleast, as much as I can anyway since the sims 1, and now I can't do it as well. I'm sure it's just a setting but idk...
Hi! I play on an Xbox series s. My camera (The sims four one) moves arond, but it won't click on people, to walk places, or items. It's very frustrating and I have tried for serveral hours to fix it and it will not work. Any suggestions?
Unfortunately I have never played on console, so I can’t really help you. However I’ve heard the the most recent game update and changed a lot of the controls for console, so maybe that is your issue!
On some laptop track pads, if you use two fingers at once and swipe up/down it can work the same as a scroll! Not sure if this is universal to all laptops but it’s worked with a lot of windows based laptops I’ve owned!
thank you for this tutorial! I haven’t played the sims in years and last time I played it was on my mac, so I was struggling to figure out how to tilt and rotate the camera while playing on pc for the first time!

I really appreciate your tutorial. Been trying to figure out sims 4 camera movements for the last 2 hours. Thank you for your hard work. :)
So glad I could help!
Great tutorial! In these days I have started to try making some videos and the cinematic camera tips are exactly what I need! Thank you 😊💚

With the sims 4 cam how do you change it up and down like becoming level with the ground, feels like I’m always bird view
help! after updating, hold scroll wheel to rotate doesn’t work anymore 😢

@@dizzymisslizzy_ thank you !! Didn’t even think you’d reply lol
What do you have to press to be eye level
I’m on a Magic Mouse for Mac and the right click doesn’t let me rotate what can I do ?

@@dizzymisslizzy_ It works, but only partially. it allows me to move forward and sideways, but I still can't rotate the camera.
This was so helpful! I have been wondering how people do this and you explained this so well!!! Thank you
Hi! This is really helpful, but I have a question, when I right click, it’s not rotating it’s just the screen moves and that really confused me.
I'm so glad you found this helpful! Also hold left mouse to rotate the items, not the right one!
When I rotate using the right mouse, the mouse on the screen also moves around as if im not rotating it but it is roating. I hope this makes sense haha. Like when you rotate the mouse stays in place and mine doesnt.

What if you don't have a mouse?
Thank you!

The sims 3 camera really confuses me with the keys so i just switch to it when i need to alt turn an object
I'm glad you're making it work for you!
The camera sometimes DRIFT. Like I'm moving it to a spot and it will slide a little bit further. It's driving me crazy :((
the way i said oh my god everytime i tried it on myself while watching... thanks for the tutorial!!!

Hopefully they make another update fixing it.
@@MysteriousUser1 You're welcome! I've heard there have been a lot of complaints about the update, so fingers crossed they fix it!
This helped me a lot thank you so much!
I’m so glad it was helpful!
is there camera chase ? so the camera follow the character ?
If you click on the photo of your sim in the bottom left it should follow them!
I stopped playing for the longest and recently started playing again and i have to relearn everything 😂😭😭
You got this!
Thank you so much! Your tutorial is very clear and concise. The Sims4 camera was driving me NUTS when trying to build.
What if you don't have a scroll wheel?

Is there maybe a mod for sims3 that replaces the camera with sims4 camera
I never plays sims 3 with mods, so I have no idea. However knowing simmers, there probably are camera mods for sims 3
