First person fix - wobbly camera

[Mojob]

I bought sims 4 for the sex mods and first person camera.

 

but after they updated the first person camera because people felt motion sick. it got worse for me.

I really like the first version of the first person camera. liked how you got a "Real" POV rather than a camera stading still etc.

I see no reports from other people having a hard time with it. but for me it is really bad.

 

I really hope someone can help me. or even revert it back, becaus it really sucks

I also preferred the first iteration of the mode over the 'updated' version that pretty much removed things like headbob and rotation. Thankfully, there IS a workaround that doesn't require much effort to utilize. The only downside is that this must be done every time you open up the sims. It doesn't save once you close the game.

 

Firstly, go into first person then hit Shift+Tab to open the game's 'console'.

Type 'camera.fpc.simple off'. This'll restore the head rotation.

Secondly, enter 'camera.fpc.smoothing off'. There are several different modes for smoothing. (high/med/low/off) Personally I use off because it's the realest POV effect you'll get. Most people throw up their guts with that setting, but whatever. 

 

Enjoy your newly restored POV adventure, friend.

It would be nice if we have a command how makes the Character stop to spin his body on WW animation when you spin the cam. I really appreciated before the update.

I did a bit of searching on that since the alignment issue bugs the hell out of me too, and apparently it's a change that EA did for the cottage living update. Now most animations in the game will have the character look wherever the camera's pointed. Personally, I like the idea of being able to control the rotation of the head. What sucks is that messing with the camera in any way seems to break WW animations. The WW dev can't fix this to my knowledge. It's something EA themselves would have to fix (if they ever will).

I keep getting "Command Failed" any solution?

The control of the head was already there. It’s because the spine of the body follows the direction of the head now. That’s why it breaks WW anim because the body follows the head too.

Make sure you're already in first person mode before entering in those commands. It'll give you "Command Failed" otherwise.

Dumb question but how does one get into first person. I have heard it is shift tab at same time but that only brings up a console menu for sims. Not the first person.
