Top-Down CAS Camera — Sims 4 Lookbook Camera Mod (+2 Bonus Angles)

About This Mod

The stock CAS camera only rotates horizontally: no overhead view, no low angle. The vertical angle was never an engine limit — it's a config value EA keeps between -7 and +10 degrees. Lookbook Camera changes it.

This is a patron-exclusive mod: the download lives on the MustHaveMods Patreon ($5 tier) and supports first-party mod development. Everything about the mod is documented right here — what you're joining for:

  • Top-Down: +55 degrees. The hero angle. Overhead lookbook shots nobody has taken in CAS before.
  • Editorial: +22 degrees. A subtle catalog angle, like your Sim is being photographed instead of scanned.
  • Runway: -18 degrees. Shot from below. Makes every Sim look ten feet tall.

Only the full-body camera views change, adult Sims only. Face and detail editing stay completely stock, and horizontal rotation still works everywhere. Base game only, no packs, no script mods — just "Enable Custom Content and Mods". Switching angles takes a game restart (engine limit; the camera config loads once at boot).

Compatibility: overrides the game's CAS camera settings, so it conflicts with other CAS camera mods; grab the latest version after major game patches.

Download: click the button to join on Patreon — the zip (3 variants + install guide) is attached to the patron post.
