Cameraman Mode

Jump to: navigation, search

Cameraman Mode is a mode introduced in The Sims 2 that allows you more freedom for picture- and video-making than mormal modes. To enter Cameraman Mode, press "Tab".

[edit] Differences

Once in cameraman mode, the first 2 things you will realize are that (1) the HUD is gone, (except for the encircling Play/Pause/Video indicator) and that (2) moving the mouse causes the pitch and yaw of the camera to change.

[edit] Controls

This is relatively useless, however, without the knowledge of the controls. As always, the 2D planar movement is controlled as such:

Q W
FORWARD
E
A
LEFT
S
BACK
D
RIGHT
Z X C V

However, there are other, more advanced controls:

Q
DOWN
W E
UP
A S D
Z
ZOOM IN
X
ZOOM OUT
C
CAMERA
V
VIDEO
Insert Home
WALL UP
Page Up
UP 1 FLOOR
Delete End
WALL DOWN
Page Down
DOWN 1 FLOOR

The Q (DOWN) nd E (UP) controls are the only ones that do not work outside of Cameraman Mode.
