macOS 10.13.4 Update

[Zomby_Woof]

After a two days I was able to install High Sierra, the version is 10.13.2 (17C88). My question is can I update directly to 10.13.4 with the combo since I'm a few versions back.

Yes, you can. See these posts at #664 ↑ and #607 ↑. Primarily, make everything up to date. Use combo updater. Your card is natively supported, right, so you won't need NVIDIA web drivers.

Talking about updating to 10.13.4 I am using the iMac18,3 Smbios def with my system without any graphics problems. I downloaded the latest clover and installed it. I also downloaded the latest clover configurator and clicked generate clover.plist and used almost all settings in the generated clover.plist in my clover.plist. If this is not formatted well I apologize since I’m writing this post on my phone. A very bad thunderstorm is going on here.

Wow, that's a lot to digest for a novice hackintosher, I'll have to make sure I'm more comfortable with all the procedures before commencing.

I'd say that since you installed 10.13.2 successfully, back this up with a clone, then on one drive just download the combo updater and run it. Might well work.

I did install this patch. The question is, should the 15 to 24 be deleted or simply click the "Disable" box in CCv?
