Re: WASD/arrow keys not working for camera since latest few patches.

I've given up for now. The problem, whatever it could be, is obviously hardware related in some way. And since literally *everything* else works just as expected on the computer I'm not even going to bother any more. This issue is only tied to Sims 4 and the camera movement using WASD/arrow keys. Every other hotkey binding works(went through a listing on a site). WASD and the arrows keys(like I stated earlier) works just fine in the sims console.

As for the language things I've been through that multiple times. It was the first thing I suspected to be wrong. I mean let's be honest if a clean install of windows on a formatted drive, clean install of the game doesn't work then the issue is not going to be solved easily. 

Edit: Please answer me this before I leave, if you click on TAB or BACKSPACE in the game does it move the camera?

    @crinrict I found the solution. Its a problem when your keyboard language switches. for me on win 10 its done with alt+shift. By switching back to my original the keys now works as normal
