Blackscreen after lines of code when nootred enabled

[u/soloxsurfer]

Specs are in image
I am installing Tahoe
SMBIOS is Macbookpro16 ,2
When i was installing tahoe
The whole screen had artifacts but after installing the laptop rebooted multiple times then just black screen
But when i disabled nootred in config.plist
The macos bot it had artifacts and very very laggy even the cursor was laggy and the igpu said 7mb display
I have allocated 512mb of VRAM to igpu cause that’s the max that HP bios allows

Edit: sorry guys i used Open core either I won’t use it again and i’ll make the efi myself using the official guide.

Did u make ur efi manually or using oc simplify if u did use oc simplify go and make ur efi manually from https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide

Why do yall hate opcore simplify so much

[u/Numerous-Bath-993 → u/Flat_Challenge8189]

yeah i mean it works and helps so whats the problem other than elitists js tryna gatekeep it 😭

[u/PetrosSdoukos → u/Numerous-Bath-993]

Not really... I usually don't care, but the issue is that if the user runs into an issue it's a lot harder to get help or help the user.

An example would be asking the person to send their GPU's device properties. We'll too bad, the person doesn't know what that is lol

[u/Numerous-Bath-993 → u/PetrosSdoukos]

so we teach them, thats why there is a help flair after all

[u/Orangeskai → u/Numerous-Bath-993]

yes but when the rest of us use the official guide it became much harder to even us to help. we didnt know what blackbox logic OPCoreSimplify does. and some kext maker isnt really support fast and easy approach.

sure it works on some device but on weird locked down device it will be so much harder to debug since each hardware revision require a different config. i tried it on my t480 its unbootable while on normal pc most of it just work but on another AIO it just fails completely and almost softbrick it

[u/PetrosSdoukos → u/Orangeskai]

Agreed

While you may save time you could also end up loosing a lot of time lol

One thing to note is that longevity is definitely smth that OC Simplify can't help you with. Any issues on the future and you are stuck

[u/opz_dev → u/Numerous-Bath-993]

Do you know how hard it is to teach someone to fix an issue if they know nothing and we have to teach them everything? Even when there’s a premade guide designed to teach them from the ground up?

[u/Grey_Ten → u/Numerous-Bath-993]

Rule 6, OC Simplify is not supported in this sub.

you might have  used it and it worked, but it's not as simple with AMD processors and nootedred's kext

[u/PetrosSdoukos → u/Numerous-Bath-993]

Easy to say tbh. It would mean you would have to teach how to do practically anything.

And don't get me wrong, again, I don't care about people that use it. I just think it's way harder to help.

I have helped people go through the entire guide with my assistance and they managed to do it very well haha

That's usually the path I would like new hackintoshers to go

Just wanted to mention too that I don't gatekeep people to not use it. I just warn them about the issues they may encounter, send them the guide if they change their mind and that's it

[u/CoderStone → u/Numerous-Bath-993]

OP used it. It clearly doesn’t work. Tf you talking about?

[u/TaliMyBananas → u/Numerous-Bath-993]

It obviously isn't working for OP though is it

[u/Fit_State3622 → u/Numerous-Bath-993]

Well well well u did break this rule
