OpenCore Configurator by Mackie100Projects

[UtterDisbelief]

This app is a very useful for those wishing to get a more "visual" overview of their OpenCore config.plst settings and is an easy way to edit them.

However it has a long history of "bugs" that give many cause to distrust it, but a lot of people still use it even so.

This thread is not a tutorial but a place to help users by listing any bugs found and when they are rectified.

As always, if you make any edits to your config.plist remember to check it with the "ocvalidate" app present in the "Utilities" folder of the OpenCore distribution. Drag ocvalidate to a Terminal window and then drag and drop your config.plist onto the same line. Press Enter to check it.

Please post your own issues, bugs and resolutions below.


OpenCore Configurator 2.61.2.0 for OpenCore 0.8.2 and 0.8.3:

1) "LoadEarly keys" missing from UEFI/Drivers section - they need adding into the end of each driver <dict></dict>. At present this will have to be done manually.

<key>LoadEarly</key>
<false/>

2) NVRAM section contains "LegacyEnable" key which is not required.

Remove to clear error.

12th June 2023

Please note as of the above date OpenCore 0.9.3 is readily available from Acidanthera, BUT OpenCore Configurator has not yet been updated to match, going only as far as 0.9.2.

It is missing two keys: Output / ConsoleFont (String) & ProtocolOverrides / PciIo (Boolean)

If you usually use the app then you will either have to manually edit your config.plist to pass muster for the new OC version, or wait until MacKie100Projects catches up before upgrading.
