What Happened To Top-Down View?

There used to be a control that let me view the rooms from above. It seems to have disappeared. Does anyone know what happened to it? Was it removed in a recent patch?

  • It’s still there. I’m not sure but it might not be there if you are using the Sims 4 camera controls. Try switching to Sims 3.
  • Thanks. I actually tried that, and it wasn't there either. It's really helpful to know that you still see it. I'm wondering if the issue is mod-related.

    How are you trying to access it? By pressing the "T" key? If you have an IME on your computer active (like if you type Chinese or Japanese) it will override the hot keys. That's all I can think of as it's happened to me before.
  • I'm pretty sure I have successfully used it since the most recent patch, so it's still working. Mind that it only works in build mode, the function never existed in live mode. Other than that, something about keyboard settings as mentioned above seems a likely explanation.
  • Thanks for your help everyone. I'm not sure what happened, but it's back now. :)
  • In build mode, you can press T to go top-down view. Not sure about live mode.
