macOS 10.13.6 Update

[markmac]

just updated through the appstore whitout problems. but i have some questions.

Is the usb port limit patch needed if i have made a custom ssdt ?

another question: i own a gigabyte rx560 4gb oc from Gigabyte. is it possible to use this card without lilu and whatevergreen ?...
with lilu and whatevergreen it is working great. with the displayport and hdmi active.

without these kexts i got a blackscreen. thanks in advance.

b) remove apfs.efi and use option that's in Clover "ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi" which replaces the apfs.efi option

Done. It works perfectly!

3) I feel that I have to apply the patch for this new release, but I am not so familiar with any patch operation onto config.plist.

Is there any easy-one-operation-method to apply the specific patch on my latest config ?

from the beginner of patach operation on config.plist

I opened my config.plist in Clover Configurator and added patch directly in «Text Mode» tab to «KextsToPatch» block. Then pressed «Synchronize» button.

After this, you should see this patch in «Kernel and Kext Patches» tab.

What SMBIOS are you using with the RX560?

Use 18,3 without WhateverGreen (and Lilu, unless you use it for other combo kexts like AppleALC)...you shouldn't have a black screen since with 10.13.4 and above WhateverGreen is unnecessary.

That gpu works fine for me on a 2nd hackintosh without whatevergreen.

I mean if WG+Lilu is working for you just leaves it as is.

You might want to try putting in nvidiagraphicfixup (yes it’ll work for amd) and removing WG and see what happens.

I updated Clover to 4586, apfs.efi, AppleALC and Lilu.

USB 3.0 stopped working, but new patch fixed this problem.

New apfs.efi started to generate some logging during boot, so I rolled to previous apfs.efi.
Any ideas, why it's happening?

Are you using fake-id 0x5912 to accelerate UHD 630?

Copy a BOARD-ID from 14,2 SMBIOS to BOARD-ID in Clover with 18,3 SMBIOS. Then the black screen will be gone for good.

Yes, 0x59120000.

Thanks i will try, i want to make sure they are not needed anymore. it also makes it a lot easier when mojave is out there this fall.
