Turning the screen in tab mode

In the Sims 3, and in tab mode, we were able to turn our camera to get a different angle by pressing Shift + A or D. I don't mean moving it up or down, or side to side, I mean turning the camera on its side, or even upside down.

Did they seriously forget to put this into the Sims 4, or did they change the settings? Because I've been fiddling with the keyboard and nothing is rotating my camera on it's side. If they did remove this, does anyone have a mod for it?

    When on tab mode, use "A" and "D" without holding down Shift to rotate the camera from the side. And also "Q" and "E" to move up and down.
    Alternatively, you can just move your mouse while on Tab mode.
    Make sure you are using TS3 camera settings just in case cuz that's the settings I used.

    Hope this helps.

    Unfortunately, it doesn't. D: Let me post an example.

    This is what we used to be able to do in the Sims 3 by pressing Shift + A or D. I'm asking if anyone knows how to do this in the Sims 4?

    Oh, okay, I don't know about that. Sorry. I don't think we have that option in Sims 4. :( You could always manually rotate it using photo viewer on your computer tho. XD

    I thought so..... :frowning:
    I know, but I need it in the game for modeling. :sweat_smile: The rotation is useful when trying to take full bodyshots. Makes my life easier, as I'd rather not put together a body every single time. :lol:

    Thank you for answering. ^_^
