Bring a little analog charm to your Sim’s streaming setup with the Vintage Hovercam, a vintage-inspired redesign of the Get Famous streaming drone.
Important download note: This page is for the Vintage Hovercam object/package file only.
The optional Hovercam script file has its own separate download page because script files cannot be included on this Buy Mode item page.

The script file is recommended if you want the adjusted camera behavior described below. Without the script, the Hovercam still works as a functional Get Famous streaming drone.
Inspired by late-60s and 70s portable cameras, the OrbitEye comes in 16 retro swatches, including warm tones, creams, avocado greens, oranges, florals, and darker lounge-friendly colorways.
I also made a small optional behavioral adjustment through a separate script file. Normally, the streaming drone spends much of its time filming your Sim from behind. With the companion Hovercam script installed, if your Sim remains in roughly the same place for more than a couple of Sim minutes, the Hovercam can reposition toward the side or front instead. I wanted it to feel more like an actual streamer’s camera, where the Sim’s face and expressions stay in view rather than the camera hovering behind them for the entire session.
The drone still functions as a streaming camera and is intended for gameplay, storytelling, screenshots, influencer saves, and retro Get Famous setups.

To use the adjusted behavior, download both:
