Rotating the camera?

my right mouse button isn't rotating the view. I chose the Sims3 option, but still can't manage to rotate the view. suggestions?

I use sims 4 camera and holding right mouse rotates view fine. Left is grab and pull, and wheel is zoom. (for me)

it won't let me post the link but I found this ...

I use the sims 3 camera which seems to work exactly the same as what I'm used to in sims 2 and sims 3. Right click and drag to pan and click and hold the wheel to rotate and pitch.

I don't really get the sims 4 camera. Like... why is it even there? It seems to make things unnecessarily difficult. Is there really no way at all to control the pitch manually? It seems like you can drag the screen around which is similar to panning around with the sims 3 camera and you can horizontally rotate, but the pitch (vertical tilt) seems to only adjust automatically with the zoom. I can't be zoomed in close but tilted up or zoomed out far but tilted down etc. I don't like that and I doubt I'll ever get used to it as it totally takes away precision of control. Hopefully if there is a sims 5 they don't just slap this sims 4 disaster of a camera on there and call it a day.

I use Camera Controls, mostly. It's right next to the wall controls, and the Notification Wall. You can change how zoomed in you are, rotation, and tilt. It's good for movies and things, I guess.

I'm closing this thread as it was necro'd.
