I followed this guide which had me up and running with an amazing system. Thanks for all the work.
I upgraded to Mojave couple of days ago, all went smooth but it killed all but one DP connectors on my Vega 56 (from Amazon: XFX Radeon Rx Vega 56 8GB 3xDP HDMI Graphic Cards). Everything was working great under High Sierra. Nothing would make the 2nd monitor work. HDMI was and still was dead (both in High Sierra and Mojave). I changed sys def to Mac Pro 6,1 and it brought back the DP conenctor and 2nd monitor, so I was like 'just be done with it' and leave it at that. However, and this might help someone else, H.264 export from FCPX (final cut pro x) would fail every time under this system def. Same with iMac18,1 and others (I've never had luck with iMac non pro sys def). So I went back to iMacPro1,1 and H.264 export worked again, but no 2nd monitor. So I set out to find out how to enable the 2nd and 3rd DP connector on my Vega 56 under iMacPro1,1, given it used to work in High Sierra just fine. In the end, I couldn't fix it, following this guide, WEG and Lilu latest versions installed, nothing worked.
In the end, going back to MacPro5,1 fixed both problems, H.264 export worked flawlessly (and very fast with the Vega 56, I get around 10 seconds with the BruceX 5K export test which is just about the fastest I've seen anyone get, including the Vega 64, I have a 7920X CPU with the X299 ASUS motherboard below the suggestion here, the one without Thunderbolt, it's the A not the deluxe).
Anyway, both monitors working, HDMI still not but that's no big deal.
I also lost a few USB3 ports under iMacPro1,1 under Mojave, which have come back alive since MacPro5,1. I have no idea what disadvantage MacPro5,1 has but it worked for me.
Thanks!
Did you ever try to adopt and use my SSDT-X299-Vega.aml with DTPG.aml, Whatevergreen.kext and Lilu.kext?
Please upload your EFI-Folder, an IOREG.save and a “PCI” snapshot of Apple’s system report for your system.
As everything relates to Mojave, this is the wrong thread to adress your current issues. Thus, please change thread anyway.
Cheers,
