Sims 4 Camera Angles

I've been playing for a few days and I'm trying to figure out how to change the camera angle.... Not turn the camera (left or right) but rather 25 degrees, 30 degrees, etc.  As I've been playing the game has slowly begun to shift my camera angle to almost 90 degrees (making it so that I'm almost looking straight down on my sims while playing).  With all the other sims games, it was relatively simple to change the camera angle and, with this one, I can't even find directions anywhere....  Anyone figure this out?

  • Use control, shift, tab- it returns camera angle to far more normal degree so you're once again looking at everything on a lower angle.  Hope this helps 🙂

    Had this same problem...this is my first week playing Sims 4 and I didn't want to have to learn the controls so I selected the Sims 3 controls box but that still would not change the angle of the camera, meaning I wasn't able to use the eagle-eye view where I was looking directly down on something. I finally got it to do what I wanted. Using a keyboard hold down control while using the up or down arrow. This seemed to word for me on my PC. Hope that helps.

  • Yes this was awesome ty, hitting tab to freely move pan tilt cam with mouse was exactly what I've been looking for!
