I cant seem to find something related to outdated clover versions

Really?
It is the first thing mentioned in the 10.12.4 section.

10.12.4 Notes

Clover v3994 or later required for kext injection.

Oops. So how do i update and what version do i currently have?
 
The guide contains the link to Clover:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

The Clover version is displayed in the lower right corner of the main Clover screen.
You have r3766.
Current version on sourceforge is r4049.
Alright, so umm, this time it did boot but.. its like i never fixed anything, the resolution is low, no graphics acceleration, no internet etc

I copied the extra items of the drivers64UEFI directory as well as drivers32UEFI, kexts and the config. Any ideas?

No expectation of working graphics with an invalid ig-platform-id. An invalid ig-platform-id disables the graphics drivers.

You need to use a valid ig-platform-id. But before you do that you need to patch for the pixel clock limitation (due to your 4k display).

And to patch ACPI, you should read the guide:

You said... "this time it did boot"
Are you saying you can't boot now?
You must patch for pixel clock if you expect to use your internal 4k display.

And... of course... no idea without details... (no one here is clairvoyant)
