So installer of macOS runs right now.
If almost everything works, I will post my EFI folder here and also give a little tutorial how you can manage to get your machine working.

for those who are still strugiling to boot up.
In this post i attached my efi folder, place it onto your usb-stick and open config.plist in clover configurator and generate a new serial number in the section SMBIOS.
after that you should be able to boot macos mojave, i will try to boot catalina tomorrow.
If someone has a CPU without a iGPU, i inserted a boot argument to use noVPAJPEG so you can use the video and picture preview without an iGPU.

Have fun and let me know if this worked out for you

EDIT: i will attach a picture of my config.plist in clover configurator.
There is the ACPI Patch that allowed me to boot into the installer
for those who are having an efi folder so you can try that patch

open clover configurator and go to acpi section and click on the + sign under the list of patches and add the marked patch in the picture to your config.plist

You should start with verbose mode, so in clover options, boot args: -v

with that you boot like in text mode and you can see what causes that your device doesnt boot.
If you want do that and send in a screenshot so i can take a look at it

Yes, thank you I will try and have this info to you when I wake up tomorrow

Good morning, I looked for the what you asked for last night and wasn’t able to find it in the picture is the only clover options I see....

Oh yea here is a glance at my hardware info also is a MSI Radeon RX 480, I think I am having a settings issue with BIOS I could be wrong

Not that options, the next to the right of where you got there. Then you go to boot args press enter and type -v. Again enter and then press return and then boot up
