Hi, I have installed mac OS 10.14 Mojave.
My Intel HD 630 has acceleration 1536 MB.

But I can't disable discrete graphics because I didn't find out path to add _OFF method (follow guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-disabling-discrete-graphics-in-dual-gpu-laptops.163772/)

Can you help me to find it out? Please.
Thanks.

_OFF is in SSDT-11.
And it appears there is no existing _INI at that path (you should check more carefully than I did), so you'll probably end up adding one.
It is all covered in the guide.

Thanks for your helping.
I have added INI method to SSDT-11 file but it still didn't work.

There appears to be an _OFF at the same path in SSDT-2, therefore it takes precedence. SSDT-11 is likely being rejected entirely (because it has duplicate/conflicting symbols with SSDT-2).

Patch SSDT-2 instead.

Thank you. It's working now.

But my Backlight control not showing in Syspref->Displays

I have installed AppleBacklightFixup.kext to /L/E and copied SSDT-PNLF.aml to ACPI/patched still not working. (follow guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...ontrol-using-applebacklightfixup-kext.218222/).

As per guide, SSDT-PNFL.aml requires GFX0->IGPU rename.
And you have GFX0->IGPU patch disabled in your config.plist.
Why did you make a change that is so obviously wrong?

Yes, I have read this. When I enabled, I can’t boot to Mac OS. I have been blackscreen when I selected Mojave drive boot at clover menu.
I think GFX0->IGPU patch conflict with SSDT which I have patched to disable discrete graphics.
