Sul sul and happy Black History Month! I guess now is as good a time as any to debut my new Sims blog!

Hi, everyone! You can call me Dizzy! I’m 29, my pronouns are she/her, and I’ve been Simming for almost 9 years now. I’ve always loved sharing my Sims and their antics with my IRL friends and others online, but over time I’ve moved on from those friends, and I’ve always found it difficult to make connections or feel like I’m part of  a community on other platforms. So I figured why not try my tried and true, tumblr? I can never truly leave this hellsite :’)

Here’s a brief list of the kind of content I’m interested in sharing:

Maxis mix (preference for maxis match)

CAS

Lookbooks

Casual gameplay

Storytelling (if I’m not lazy, which lbh, I am lol)

If you’re interested, please like and share this post! :)

Tutorial: Camera Position Hotkeys in TAB Mode

Does this sound familiar? You want to take several screenshots from the exact same angle be it for a story, a lookbook, or a CC preview. You tab into free camera mode, take your screenshot, tab out, change poses, tab into free camera mode, and struggle to remember/find the exact camera angle again. Lather, rinse, rage-quit repeat. I did struggle with that. I looked and asked around for a solution, even if it was yet another mod that did what EA failed to do. One day someone dropped a hint, there was a way to set the camera postion, but they didn’t tell how. I used all my google-fu skills and finally found out how to do it. It’s a lifesaver. A fair warning: If you’re anything like me, you’ll use it whenever you take screenhots from now on, just because you can.

Here’s how you can take a picture series like this.

Or this.

1. How to set hotkeys

Press TAB to switch into free camera mode.

Set-up your shot. If you’re happy with it,…

Press CTRL+ 5-9 (top row, not numpad) to save the camera angle.

You can save 5 different camera positions. They’ll be assigned to that hotkey until you overwrite them. Although key 4 is said to be usable as camera hotkey, too it doesn’t work for me.

2. How to use the hotkeys

Press TAB to switch back into free camera mode.

Press key 5-9 and the camera will move back to the saved position. Voila!

Tip: As long as you’re in game mode zoom out as far as you can before re-entering TAB mode. This way all faded-out objects will be visible in TAB mode again. Hit TAB, then your hotkey and enjoy a little tracking shot.

Have fun taking your screenshots! Maybe @thefoxburyinstitute​ finds this worth sharing? I have a feeling this feature is so unknown, it’s almost like an easter egg. It took me almost three years until I found out.

i love you sims story tellers, sims legacy players, sims casual players, sims cc creators and modders (that aren't unhinged, power-tripping freaks), sims builders, sims fans, sims shit posters, sims render makers, sims edit makers, sims lookbook makers. you all made and are continuing to make lemonade out of lemons and you should be proud of that.

sims four should let u make big muscular women, the sliders rn r just not enough send tweet
