Thank you for sharing. Good to see someone making progress.

So why do we want it (notebook / desktop)?
Will the new be limited to /Extra or also run froms /S/L/E?
I bet people are going to ask: "How do we pull this from github this?" (me starts counter).
Oh and your README looks more like a LICENSE file to me. Not what I was expecting.

n.b. It compiles fine. No warnings / errors.

Does it auto-detects Tjmax value from CPU?

Yup. More like an educated guess really, but looking at the source code:

bool IntelThermal::init(OSDictionary *properties)
{
	DebugLog("Initialising...");
	
	if (!super::init(properties))
		return false;
	
	if (OSNumber* number = OSDynamicCast(OSNumber, getProperty("TJMax"))) {
		tjmax[0] = number->unsigned32BitValue();	
	}

	return true;
}

I would say it does.

It's difficult to believe that you are a 15 year old girl, but if you say so.

working from extra

Major selling point imho. Thank you!

/EDIT 22/10

I installed your fakesmc + intelthermal & superio with winbond plugin today.
It works great but AUXTIN and one of my case fans is missing (FAN1 is the CPU fan). Compare with a screenshot of HWMonitor:

If I add NVClockX I get a kernel panic during boot. The one that doesn't even mention NVClockX was when booting the 10.6.0 install DVD.
Sorry about the quality, there's not enough ambient light here to take good photos in the evening :-)

Thanks mozodojo, working fine from Extra, W836x.kext shows northbridge and fans.

For those still looking for download link

Thank you. I take that as a complement.

You think I should use my picture instead of this avatar?

Thanks mozodojo  

Great Job

1. Readme actually is a license - I am not a good english writer.
2. Look for "downloads" section (thanks, oldnapalm).
3. kexts will work from S/L/E too
4. IntelThermal trying to autodetect TjMax value. If not using 100. TjMax value could be overriden via info.plist:

How is this project different from Slice's FakeSMC project? I have Slice's FakeSMC with 4 plugins in my /s/l/e folder. All appears to be properly detected on my rig - temps (CPU, GPU), fan, CPU voltage. Albeit, I still have no fan control.

Loaded FakeSMC plugins are as follow: FakeSMCIntelMonitor.kext, FakeSMCnVclockPort.kext, FakeSMCSuperIO.kext, FakeSMCACPIMonitor.kext

I'm an amateur, so please do elaborate.

DarwinX, if you open your FakeSMC and plugins info.plist, you could see who is creator.

In general It's the same project and the same developers. We was working together on the pervious version. This new version I decided to make works from Extra. Still waiting the team will join to me on github.

I do realize that you are involved with with both projects, hence the question. Given my FakeSMC state, is there a benefit to replacing it with yours? If so, do I completely remove Slice's FakeSMC and replace it with yours in /e/e/ folder? The placement of FakeSMC.kext is not that important to me by the way.

[kozlek]

New FakeSMC will work only with new plugins. Older plugins and fakesmc is incompatible with new one.

Seriously? The major benefit is that since mozodojo's version works from /extra, you can use it on a boot CD or whatever else you use to boot a retail OS X installer. Previously you had to use Netkas' original version.

I would say that's pretty significant.

[blackosx]

Fantastic development progression mozodojo. Working great from /Extra here. Thanks

True, however for existing installations, what are the benefits of the Mozodojo branch? How do I get NVidia GPU temp readout with it? Basically and logically, I merely desire to have the best available implementation of the FakeSMC for my particular rig. Naturally, regression would be undesirable, so if this branch offers more features, then it is something I am quite interested in. Beyond the read outs that I already do receive from my existing Slice's FakeSMC, what more is there and out of that what is further available in this particular branch? Is there any hope for fan control?

[kozlek]

New version is under development.

Current version works great! Whats the plan for the new one?

[MacKonsti]

Dear mozodojo thanks for your share and hard work. I have also been following the developments over ProjectOSX of slice, rubik and you and others; however, I see some lack of updates or interest...

So I remove FakeSMC v405 (latest ProjectOSX) from /S/L/E/ and include yours in /E/E but.... for us poor souls that don't have time to learn and compile, would you be so kind and offer us the full compiled binaries?

Is the link below the one I am looking for?
http://github.com/do...est.zip/qr_code

Finally, your FakeSMC main binary, is it the same as Netkas' 2.5 release some time ago, or is it a more developed, advanced version? I don't see a version in its Info.plist

Please let us know when you have updated your sources and provide a new binary to download!

Many many thanks! About to test it on my Q9550 ICH7 ITE8718F chipset mobo! Nevermind NVidia readings ;-)
