First person view

First person view is far to sensitive....giving me motion sickness:won't be using it again till we can change camera sensitivity.
  • I love FPV. The pleasure factor of seeing through your sim lots you have built is great. However the constant bobbing and head simulation should have a toggle. I know you can prevent it from going wherever your sim is looking but it still bounces too much, there should be a setting to lower it or make it static.

    I'd recommend it, granted I don't think I could restrict myself to only FPV, but I have done 1 or 2 full days every week or so or when I just want to sit back and have a slow day appreciating everything I have collected, built, etc. It's hard at first and I'd definitely only recommend it in single sim households to fully enjoy it without going nuts.

    Yeah, I inevitably end up with families so I'll need to choose my moment wisely. Perhaps I'll send the founder of my new town off to the pub by himself and try it then.
  • maybe it should clue them in that sim animations are wayyy too cartoony since an acutal person moving their heads that much would get sick.

    is there a way to change the field point of view thing on a laptop? I don't have a mousewheel

    It should be the ‘minus’ and ‘equal’ keys.
  • First person view was okay for me. I wouldn't use it when my sims are using romantic interactions.

    I am glad it is an option as I would not use it, however it is an interesting concept. :)
