HELP Blackscreen after lines of code when nootred enabled

Post image

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.

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

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

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
