Inverted Camera Controls

I hope I explain this correctly, but before I installed Seasons, I had inverted controls. Meaning, when I used my right mouse button to scroll the camera, and I went down, it would pull the screen up. Well now, when I move my mouse down, it goes down. I've had inverted controls since Sims 3 and it's really messing me up. Is there a way to get my inverted controls back?

    I contacted EA and it's been confirmed by the Sims 4 team that my controls were never supposed to be inverted and they have no idea why they were in the first place. I just have to get used to the "new" controls.

  • Did you check the options if they're still properly set ?

    You are talking about invert vertical/horizontal settings, right ?

    The invert horizontal and vertical settings only deal with the middle mouse button, they aren't affecting my right mouse button. Unless they're supposed to be, but they aren't. I currently have no settings that affect my right mouse button when inverting controls.

    Don't know very much about this so how did you invert them in the first place ?

    This is where I'm confused, they've been inverted since I installed the game in 2014. I've never messed with inversion settings. The only setting I messed with was changing it to the Sims 3 camera.

    Hm, this is really weird.

    Thanks for getting back to us though.
