Yes. The gamepads in the following list have been tested and are supported by LEGO DC Super-Villains:
Other gamepads may work, but have not been tested and as such are not officially supported. If you have an unlisted gamepad that does not work with LEGO DC Super-Villains, email padsupport@feralinteractive.com with information about your device and our support team will try to help you.
Some gamepads support both DirectInput and XInput modes. These gamepads can be identified by a switch on them that has two options, “D” (DirectInput) and “X” (XInput).
To play LEGO DC Super-Villains a gamepad must be supported and set to XInput mode.
Currently supported devices that have this switch are:
If your gamepad has the switch and is not on this list, you will not be able to use it to play LEGO DC Super-Villains without a pad support file. To obtain one, email padsupport@feralinteractive.com and our support team will reply to you with a request for information about your device. Once we have this information, we can usually create a gamepad support file and email it to you.
To switch the gamepad to XInput mode, follow these instructions:
If the LEGO DC Super-Villains application is running, close it.
Unplug the gamepad (or wireless receiver, if the gamepad is wireless).
Turn the switch on the pad to “X”.
Plug the pad or wireless receiver back in.
Restart the LEGO DC Super-Villains application.
You will now be able to play LEGO DC Super-Villains with the gamepad.
The dock or notifications may occasionally appear while you are playing LEGO DC Super-Villains, or the desktop cursor may replace the game cursor. This can disrupt a game.

From the LEGO DC Super-Villains pre-game Options window, select the Display tab.
Check the Hide the Dock (disables notifications) checkbox.

If you have a Retina display, you will be able to take advantage of the extra pixels by running LEGO DC Super-Villains in native resolution. This means that the game will display one pixel for every pixel on your display.
To do this, follow these instructions:
From the LEGO DC Super-Villains pre-game Options window, select the Display tab.
Select the largest resolution from the Resolution drop-down menu to play the game in native Retina resolution.
Click the Play button. The game will start in native Retina resolution.
NOTE: In many cases, increasing your game's resolution will impact upon its performance.
By default, macOS uses the F keys to control items such as volume and brightness. To use an F key for a game command hold down the fn key, then press the F key you wish to use.
To automatically enable the F keys, follow these steps (depending on the version of macOS you are running):
Open System Settings ( Menu → System Settings).
Click on Keyboard.
Select the Keyboard Shortcuts button (macOS Ventura).
Click on Function Keys (macOS Ventura).
Turn on Use F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys.
The F keys will now work without using the fn key.
Short Apple keyboards do not have Home (↖), End (↘), Page Up (⇞), Page Down (⇟) or Delete (⌦) keys.
In order to use game commands that are mapped to these keys, you will need to use the Function (fn) key as follows:
Home (↖) = Function (fn) key + Left Arrow (◀) key
End (↘) = Function (fn) key + Right Arrow (▶) key
Page Up (⇞) = Function (fn) key + Up Arrow (▲) key
Page Down (⇟) = Function (fn) key + Down Arrow (▼) key
Delete (⌦) = Function (fn) key + Backspace (←) key
Your saved games are stored in your game's preferences folder.
To open this folder, click the Open Preferences Folder button in the Support tab of the pre-game Options window.
To take screenshots while playing LEGO DC Super-Villains you should use the following key command:
Command (⌘) + Shift (⇧) + P
When you press all three keys at once, a single image of the on-screen contents will be saved in the Feral Interactive folder in your computer's ~/Pictures folder (the "~" symbol refers to your home directory).
The JPEG image contains metadata in a string in the following format.
GameName/Version Number (OS Version; CPU Speed; Installed RAM; Video RAM; Current Graphics Card)
For example in LEGO DC Super-Villains the string might look a little like this:
LEGO DC Super-Villains/1.0 (macOS 10.15; 3.0; 8.0; 4.0; AMD Radeon R9 M395X)
This information can be easily removed by exporting the screenshot into a different format using Preview or another image editing tool.
NOTE: None of the metadata stored can be used to identify the user.
No. LEGO DC Super-Villains has been tested with the basic formatting option for Mac OS X, which is HFS+. This system is not case-sensitive and identifies files by name without checking capitalization.
The capitalization of filenames is not consistent throughout the game. While this will not always prevent the game from running on case-sensitive file systems, it may lead to crashes and other unpredictable behaviour.
If you have to run a case-sensitive setup and you experience problems with LEGO DC Super-Villains, please install the game on a standard formatted partition or read/write disk image. In most cases this will allow you to play the game on your machine.
There are several factors which have an impact on the speed at which LEGO DC Super-Villains runs. Please see the LEGO DC Super-Villains Performance Tips section in the ReadMe for ways to increase the speed at which the game runs on your computer.
Please read the technical support information in the ReadMe; this tells you what to check and if necessary, how to contact Feral Technical Support with your issue.
