NVIDIA Releases Alternate Graphics Drivers for macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 (387.10.10.10.30)

Hard to say without seeing the error or what you did to the /etc/paths file or what's in the /usr/local/sbin directory.


Discord was very slow (trying to switch between servers and channels) before 30.106 with my Titan X (Maxwell). Now everything is lag free (Safari, two instances of WoW, Discord, Twitch, iTunes, using Command Tab, etc.). I haven't tried the computer with the 1070 (Pascal) recently though.

Yes, I don't know what to do precisely in these folders... The error is the basic terminal "command doesn't exit". Thanx for your time

In my case with 1070, I can run WoW / Twitch etc. lag-free, but Discord gives me the most headache. UI is totally broken. I'll provide a screenshot later. Most of the time it shows only background image and some garbled pieces of the UI. If I try to resize Discord window some elements appear and some disappear.

Wait peoples... You can't delete Lilu & NvidiaFixup while using iMac 17.x/18.x/MacPro6.x definitions.

I am able to remove NvidiaFixup, but not LILU due to sound. Everything seems stable with latest 387.10.10.10.30.106 driver. Am I missing something about removing NvidiaFixup? I am using iMac 18,3 as system definition.

Just finished the clean 10.13.4 installation and all I needed for my 1050 Ti was to install the latest web drivers. Smooth!

Pleased to say these new drivers appear to be working fabulously. One odd thing I had to do was back date Lilu and Fixup kexts because new ones were causes black screen on z170x boards.

Lilu.kext 1.2.2
NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext 1.2.1

Thanx for the tips ! So I can't use Cuda-Z because i don't have any Cuda driver installed, but Oceanwave gives me that :

What do you think?



I installed the stuff, but when I try any command I receive an error, so I guess I missed something, most likely in this part : "Then append /usr/local/sbin to the file /etc/paths".....

I'm wondering if the Nvme drive I have in the M.2 is not responsible for this PCIe problem....

Is anyone else getting a hard reboot the second the "Benchmark" button is clicked on in Oceanwave? I've tried two different downloads (both are v161) with the same results.

I just ran it. No hard reboot here.

/etc/paths is a file. Edit it. I like BBEdit as a text editor.
/usr/local/sbin is a folder. Look in it. Use the ls command in terminal. Or go to it in the Finder.
pciutils installer installs commands into /usr/local/sbin so that path should be added to the /etc/paths file.

I'm using Discord.app version 0.0.250 (135,521,806 bytes). Maybe you need to reinstall or delete preferences.
smbios: imac17,1
Lilu 1.2.3
HibernationFixup 1.2.0
AppleALC 1.2.6
WhateverGreen 1.1.7
NightShiftUnlocker 2.2.1
NvidiaGraphicsFixup 1.2.6
CoreDisplayFixup 1.3.6
Shiki 2.2.6
IntelGraphicsFixup 1.2.7

All of those are added to LiluFriend 1.1.0's info.plist OSBundleLibraries and installed to /System/Library/Extensions using Kext Utility.app.

I don't get a reboot. There is a half second pause after the first second. 218 fps with AA, 244 fps with AA off. or 1337 fps with AA off after restarting the app. Actually, doing the same with AA on (restarting the app), I can get 1445 fps. That seems strange. Results are not consistent.

I have a build very similar to yours. Have you experienced some micro stutters when closing tabs in safari? For me, when I tried to close one tab, it delayed one second then jumped to the closed state, no animations

Just checked, I have this too.
