Sims 4 Mouse Control Problem ( Mac )

★ Novice
I’ve recently switched from using PC to Mac and i’m having a hard time with the camera controls for the sims 4. On my pc i could click the middle mouse button and rotate the camera and i could also use the left mouse button to move around. I’ve been unable to do so on my mac however. I know there are keys on the keyboard i can use to do these things but it’s incredibly tedious. I would really appreciate if somebody could tell me if there anyway to move around in game with my mouse?

Without knowing what device you're using it's hard to give advice. External Trackpad? Magic Trackpad? Integrated Trackpad/Magic Trackpad? Magic Mouse? Mighty Mouse? 3rd party mouse?

 

Holding down CMD and using the arrow keys is a really easy way to tilt the camera.

This is an old thread and the game has had significant updates in over a year, as has whichever version of macOS you are running. Without you providing any specific details of the problem you are encountering, nor any details about which Mac you are using, it is difficult to help.

Go into your mouse settings and turn on the right click function.
