3. ### The LEGO Movie Videogame Performance Tips

   The most important factors in determining how smoothly The LEGO Movie Videogame plays are your CPU speed, the amount of built-in RAM, the type of graphics card in your computer and the in-game settings you select.

   The LEGO Movie Videogame is playable with the minimum specifications listed below, but it will play more smoothly on faster computers with more RAM. However, if you are dissatisfied with the performance of the game on your computer, there are a couple of things you can do that are likely to improve performance:

   - Close all other applications: You are strongly encouraged to quit all other applications before launching The LEGO Movie Videogame – other applications drain resources and slow the overall system performance.
   - Clear disk space: Ensure that your main hard disk has plenty of spare disk space.
   - If you have a second monitor, disconnect it (having an additional monitor connected to your Mac may create a drop in performance).

   In addition to these general Mac actions, there are some specific in-game settings you can select to speed up the game. These are listed below in order of performance improvement (largest improvement first). Move down the list adjusting settings until you find an acceptable balance between good performance and acceptable graphics.

   - Screen Resolution
   - 2560x1440 - Slowest
   - 1280x720 - Faster
   - 800x600 - Fastest
   - Vertical Sync (prevents screen tearing)
   - On - Slower
   - Off - Faster
   - Texture Quality
   - High - Slower
   - Low - Faster

   - Edge AA - Slower
   - Off - Faster
   - Shadow Quality
   - High - Slowest
   - Low - Faster

   - Depth of Field
