Plenty of Simmers have already reported an issue with the First Person Camera introduced with The Sims 4’s latest update.

When entering the First Person View using Shift + Tab some players are seeing their Sim’s eyes, some are seeing mouth, eyelashes, hairstyles and some report that they can see all of that altogether in this mode.

This issue is mostly reported by players who are using the First Person Camera with a Sim that’s using at least one piece of Custom Content.

I’d assume the eyelashes & hair for some of the players would be the 3D eyelashes and custom hair, I don’t know if that’s something easy to fix on the devs side but I hope it is since I use cc D:

Well its a good thing I dont use CC.

It’s not CC, I don’t use CC and I’m facing the same issue.

I don’t use cc, never download any, and I have this issue.
1st person mode is unplayable for me since the teeth block the view 🙁

Tina

Surprise, surprise. So glad I didn’t update yet.

I have the same problem. I do use CC but it can’t be the cause bc I removed them when I updated the Game. After that, I put them back and now I can’t change the hair color.

I’m getting this too. I removed all CC and Mods before I patched and haven’t put any back in.

The first person view is terrible! just looking at gums and teeth lol too many issues

I have the same problem. I have taken out all CC, repaired the game, and cleared the cashe. I even tried using EA’s graphic default settings. Nothing fixed it and it happens 100% of the time I’m in first person.

Someone told me a trick to “fix” it. Before you go into 1st person pull the camera way way back; then shift-tab. It works most of the time for me. Until we get a proper fix, this is what I’m doing.
