First and foremost thanks for checking out the guide, however I have been very busy and haven't had time to respond lately, so please accept my apologies for that.
What do you mean?
Place your constructed code in the template in post one and and then add it to your config in the kext to patch section post one has examples
Sounds like you forgot one step rebuilding kextcaches do so in single user mode with these commands
may need to do it a couple times
Looks like you didn't point it to your vBios rom file of your card.
Mobile cards are very poorly supported in hackintosh for which I have no suggestions
The reason you need iGPU/Nvidia Card is so you can boot to the desktop to obtain all this info to perform the patching, on non UEFI based systems. Now you can use a six port framebuffer for a five port card. You just must edit the first five ports in the framebuffer and leave the last one alone data length must still be the same.
Again mobile is poorly supported and I have no suggestions for it note this is desktop section of the forum.
Okay, how further?
What do you mean?
Hi,

Place your constructed code in the template in post one and and then add it to your config in the kext to patch section post one has examples
I have followed this guide to create a connector layout that matches my MSI Radeon RX 560 video card. For some reason, when I put the patch in the config file, the system does not boot. I see the Apple logo and the progress bar reaches almost to the end but it never completes the boot. I used the Acre framebuffer as it matches my video card.
Code:Acre (3) @ 0x622e0 DP, HDMI, DVI-D 000400000403000000010101000000001102020100000000 000800000402000000010200000000002103050400000000 040000000402000000010300000000000000030500000000
Here's my modified framebuffer:
Code:000400000403000000010100000000001102020100000000 000800000402000000010200000000002103050400000000 040000001402000000010300000000001000030500000000
I created an entry for AMD9500Controller. Under Find, I put in the original framebuffer and under Replace I put the modified one.
Code:<dict> <key>Comment</key> <string>MSI Radeon RX 560 Connector Patch</string> <key>Disabled</key> <false/> <key>Find</key> <data> AAQAAAQDAAAAAQEBAAAAABECAgEAAAAAAAgAAAQCAAAA AQIAAAAAACEDBQQAAAAABAAAAAQCAAAAAQMAAAAAAAAA AwUAAAAA </data> <key>Name</key> <string>AMD9500Controller</string> <key>Replace</key> <data> AAQAAAQDAAAAAQEAAAAAABECAgEAAAAAAAgAAAQCAAAA AQIAAAAAACEDBQQAAAAABAAAABQCAAAAAQMAAAAAABAA AwUAAAAA </data> </dict>
When I copy the framebuffer in Clover Configurator, should there be any spaces between 8 digit numbers? I also enabled ATI, selected Acre and RadeonDeInit.
Sounds like you forgot one step rebuilding kextcaches do so in single user mode with these commands
Code:
mount -uw /
touch /System/Library/Extensions/
kextcache -Boot -U /
exit
Sometimes the dual monitor setup just works sometimes it doesn't and hence the need to patch the framebuffer. I think you need to get a better understanding of the guide before I dive deeper in to it here.Hi, I would like to buy this card using dual dvi port.
https://www.asus.com/us/Graphics-Cards/R9270XDC2T4GD5/
I read the guide, but don't understand at all.
What's the process for using it in dual monitor?
I don't find any framebuffer in 7000.kext with the same output, what to do?
Thanks, and excuse my noobing.

Looks like you didn't point it to your vBios rom file of your card.
What do you do if some of your values from redsock and redgate are hex values such as 0xFF ? That isn't a 2 digit number...
What do you do if none of the framebuffers in the kext for your card have enough connectors? Mine has 5 and the AMD8000 kext only has 2 framebuffers and neither are even close?
FYI - my card is a FirePro m6100. It's an MXM card.
Thanks!
Mobile cards are very poorly supported in hackintosh for which I have no suggestions
Thanks so much for this amazing guide. I am still digesting all this, but I would be most grateful if anyone could confirm one thing for me:
I am planning to buy a card such as the Asus 7970 DirectCU II which has 2 x DVI + 4 x DP ports. I then hope to use the following 5-monitor config: 3 x DP + DVI + DVI
Could anyone confirm that it should be possible for me to get 5 or 6 working displays on a 7970 which has 6 ports? I am worried that it appears that no reference/standard FrameBuffer has that many ports, at least not a recent one. The only one I can see on the Radeon Compatibility Guide which has 6+ ports is from 5xxx, a "5870 EyeFinity 6". Can I use one that old with a 7970?
EDIT: I've since looked through the 7000 personalities and see several that have six ports, but none with 2 x DVI + 4 x DP. I'm hoping it might be possible to patch to the required config.
However a bigger problem I didn't previously think enough about is the fact that I have no UEFI - I am on an X58/LGA1366 system with Legacy boot and no iGPU. The OP specifically states this is not supported for the patching method, so this may be my biggest problem.
I must say though I still don't fully understand the need for an iGPU in all cases, given that the real MacPro 5.1 uses LGA1366 and had no integrated GPU. It's possible to buy AMD 7XXX cards that specifically state they're for Mac Pros, eg a 7950. And in fact I could buy a refurbed MP 5.1 from a reseller which comes with an AMD RX 560.
So it seems to me that surely iGPU can't be a hard requirement in all cases? Unless this ia difference in Hack vs real Mac.
The reason you need iGPU/Nvidia Card is so you can boot to the desktop to obtain all this info to perform the patching, on non UEFI based systems. Now you can use a six port framebuffer for a five port card. You just must edit the first five ports in the framebuffer and leave the last one alone data length must still be the same.
No luck yet with the m6100. Here is a summary of my efforts if anyone has time for a suggestion. Please note the hot plug id of "ff" and the enc value of "0x10?". Very odd to me. If I made the "ff" decimal, it would be 255, and more than 2 digits...
