Default [Tutorial] How to Access Camerman Mode While Building
I really really hope this hasn't already been posted, because I searched like crazy.

I FINALLY figured this out! And it's actually very simple.

Steps:
  • Build your lot, save, and enter the Nhood.
  • Open a household
  • Click the "..." in the bottom left hand corner, and click Edit Town.
  • Go into the lot you want to take pictures of.
  • Press the terrain PAINT button, to hide the grids.
  • Press Tab.

That's it! But, this is VERY IMPORTANT. You can only press tab ONCE. If you go out of cameraman mode to change the angle/fix awkward zooming, it won't let you go back to cameraman mode.

But, if you feel the need to adjust your angles after every picture, you can repeat the steps each time you take a picture.

Hope this helps all you builders!

Well, it has been discovered and use for many uploads, but it is always good to have a tutorial for it.

I suggest adding the points...

"Cameraman mode is accessible during live mode as many times as you desire"
"Cameraman mode works one PER SAVE in build/buy mode"

Now streaming on at Twitch.tv/SeveralNerds or UglyHoesConnect.com - whichever is easier for you to type in your browser.
