Possibly could have been me not modifying NVDAStartupWeb.kext. I assumed it wouldn't be necessary with the distro you put out but I'm sure that may have been the case
. Seemed as if once in the Nvidia control panel under the Graphics Drivers section that the area was greyed out not allowing me to even choose Nvidia as the driver. Used Mac drivers by default and a popup stating something along the lines of my current OS. I believe what threw me off was prior when I did a repackage on my first successful install, it was on 10.13.2. Now that I'm on 10.13.3 downloaded the 157 drivers from your post and I'm golden now.
I guess goin back and fourth, reading about all the graphic stuff I had to got lost somewhere down the line. But nonetheless I'm good to go now and man am I learning a lot from you guys and using these knew tools. Haven't hackintoshed in years... goin back from iBoot and installing snow leopard to all these new toys like Clover and other tools. Just loving hackintosh life right now
and cheers

This thread inspired me to get the hardware I got. You da man.
On a special note though...
I'm aware you constantly update your guide for all to use and go by but was wondering if you were in the future or possibly one day thinking about simplifying the guide to a short quick general X299 guide. I love the detail you put into it for a reference but as I've got through your guide installation more than once, I can't help but to notice a lot of notes I skip over that either doesn't to pertain to us anymore or is simply a (just in case you want to know). For example, the part where we create our own installer... well that comes prior and its like a few lines of curls we have to do.... so I do it just to see right at the end of that section, THEN you add about thanks to someone all this has been automated with this file .sh something like that. Though I felt like I accomplished something creating my own based on your notes... would have saved me some effort.time to have seen the aio installer creator prior to the steps. Also as we move on up like George and Weezy with Apple constantly adding compatibility, some stuff just isn't necessary to list or even mention in regards to what has changed since... (older OS revisions of High Sierra) and of course this is in regards to a simplified guide. I could just shut the F up and let you keep doing your thing cuz its most definitely is an official detailed how to do guide... just was speaking for if anything the more moderate and possibly new adopters to the hackintosh community as something appearing a little simpler to them can and may influence new and more innovators. (I mean we are closing in on 500 posts soon... this has to be a record lol)
Just my opinion ... but you still official like a referee with a whistle in my book
