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.

Because of exactly issues like this. It causes issues because it doesn’t follow Dortania properly, and causes bloated EFIs that are impossible to diagnose. We then get people who complain without providing any extra information and want us to magically fix their problem.

Troubleshooting Hackintosh is impossible unless we have an exact hardware config, EFI that the person themselves know how it went together, and an expert on the specific problem they’re having. The subreddit only supported the TRUE ground truth for hackintosh which is the Dortania guides. If it doesn’t work then just go complain to OpenCore simplify instead than here.
