I'm sorry to say it doesn't work for me.

Following yhXDEV's instructions, ran the .sh script. Got a lot of warnings about kexts not being the right architecture and not being cached, but that doesn't seem to be the problem.

Restarted, checked to see if the kext was in the right map (it was), and started up Maya (I installed it a few days ago). No go, instead I got Maya OPA.

I've got my aw.dat working, beacause I tried installing the license key manually, and Maya OPA accepted it (which it didn't before this new kext). Maya itself still won't start and instead bounces me back into Maya OPA, however.

Anybody got any ideas? I'm running JaS' first full 10.4.8 release (patched to allow IDE install) on a Gigabyte GA-945P-DS3 with an E6600.

Do you have the 10.4.8 IONetworkingFamily.kext in place? The mod date should be Sep 25, 2006, 8:23pm.

Hmm, mine seems to be modified Jan 4th, 2006 (like most other extensions in /System/Library/Extensions). Where can I get the updated one?

I don't know if your case is same as mine, but I use 965P-DQ6. You can get it from apple's 10.4.8 Intel combo update then extract it from it...but you've to make sure the On Board Network card is working before you do anything.. to make it easier for you...I've done it for you here Good Luck!

First of all, thanks for all the help, it's really appreciated!

Anyway, I replaced my IONetworkingFamily.kext with the updated one (and my network adapter still worked, woohoo!), ran the .sh script again and rebooted, but it's the same. I still get bounced to Maya OPA.

Did you try click on Show OPA Hardware Identifier on this computer >> anything show up there?

Yup, that's one of the first things I checked...

It gave my MAC address but with an extra E in front and a 2 at the end (yes, I know, very bizarre).

I tried it in my aw.dat but the keygen returned an error in the generated aw.dat (of course)

It's ok ... Flexlm work's on your computer!!!


But to have your flexlm "number" just open the terminal in your autodesk folder and type lmhostid and you'll have the exact "hostid" to type ine the aw.dat..

That's all folk

Ok I just had to manually install the fix, repair permissions and reboot. and I have maya 8.5 fully up and running. You guys are the best. Keep up the brilliant work!

Mr. H. Potter,
u should have install 8.5. it runs alot faster.

helou didi ju need to patch the 10.4.8 jas amd sse2,sse3 with the pf1? to run maya?

GREAT !!!!!!!! Thanks God we have talent gurus around !!!! Thank You all who made it's possible

When you replace the host ID in the keygen, make sure you drop the E and the extra 2. just use your straight mac address.

Helou I want to ask user which have maya on osx86 installed .. how fast it is.. if it is fina stable and so on...

WOW
installed and working fine
thank u very very much for your efforts!

Hi everyone, I've made a little file to test how Maya 8.5 on your OSX86 Please help to see if any CPU can use Multi Core

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=39995

Still I have no working maya. My motherboard Asus P4P800-E Dlx. and I use marvellyukon ethernet(with musashi skge02d). What should I do??? S.O.S!

hey yhxdev.........i followed your instructions..........
when i restarted i got a kernel panic...(you must restart your system.....and so on in 4 different languages)
so booted into safe mode and installed the previous network driver and every thing is fine now


i checked the version of my ionetworkingfamily file see the pic ---->uploaded
it was in dec 2006

and the error report i got while installing the patch-------->uploaded

what should i do now?????

help me plz--- i thought i almost had maya after the report of the sucesses....... but again this errors :-(

From your log I couldn't see it patching anything to the IONetworkingFamily.kext Can I know what kind of Momboard and Ethernet you have? Since you seem to be able to restore your old one, I'll give you mine and the original one from 10.4.8 Intel Combo let see if it works.

yhIONetworkingFamily My running kext (Already patched, don't run script again!)

10.4.8 IONetworkingFamily.kext (Fresh rip from 10.4.8, need patch)

make sure you've
chown root:wheel IONetworkingFamily.kext
chmod 755 IONetworkingFamily.kext
also
rm /System/Library/Extensions.*
reboot

mine is asrock conroe 945g-DVI board..................

i've followed all of the instructions yhxdev...

maya licensing software recognize the builtin ethernet of my intel d975xbx thanx to your modified kext and shows it on the hardware list...
but after all of this stuff, i start maya but it ask me again for the licence...

what i've done wrong?

Were you be able to use the same license (i.e. c:\flexm\aw.dat) to run your windows x32/64/Linux version?
If not, probably you had made yourself a not working file...

i got only the mac version...

i attached what it says when i choose that licence file...

woooohoooo!!!!!! finaaly idid it :-)

but got a litle difficulty

thanx a lot [b]yhXDEV[/b]

here is what i have done

first i pasted yours ionetworking file........ and fixed permission and rebooted....... it brokdown my ethernet(not recognizing anymore)

so tried the second one and applied the patch (first forgot to do chown root:wheel IONetworkingFamily.kext and chmod 755 IONetworkingFamily.kext ............. the got a kernel panic after reboot........booted in safe mode and fixed it )

now every thing is fine

thanx alot

Hello everybody in this thread... now i downloading tihs 10.4.8 jas release ... i got downloaded patch but osx not for now....

i got litle question about instaling pure jas 10.4.8 release with amd whitch is now actually.

I got

mobo: MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum

amd3000+ (939)

from release goasec 10.4.6 everything works ovt of the box but without nvidia

i am user of maya for 5 years 3 years on linux...

the screenshots u post is something that i am waiting for a long time ...

i got msi 6800gt nvidia

in release of goasec upgrade via delta updates to 10.4.7 and some kernel hacks from semtex i got CI and QE

i downloaded some rally game but that game was goin like piece of {censored}...

can anybody tell me ... if i need to patch this jas release with pf1 patch to run my nvidia card properly? and sucesfully run maya on my machine?

please...

your images is what i wanna to run on my machine

I'm not sure about how it is on AMD since all my computers are Intel only...and they all works fine with 10.4.8
1 of my computer had the 6800GT and it was working fine with 10.4.8 JaS + Semthex Kernel + Titan.kext.
Is it possible to run 10.4.8 on your platform? If so...I doubt that's the only thing...Please check avenger's working logs too.
Good Luck

fine its good news.. but tried y using it on OpenGl aplications?

Yea, It can run Quake 4, UT04, Cinema4D....more... It can play UT04 at 1920x1200 maintains 60FPS.

to yhXDEV about Maya 8.5 for mac:

i'm near madness!!
i
i don't know why the program says this is a good licence and after it asks for it again...
help me please... give me a step by step tutorial on how to do it the right way...
i know you think i'm a retard... but it's strange this behavior of the licensing program...

Well... I hope you'll have some mercy about me...

It's ok, take it easy.
Just as before..take the following steps. But make sure you know how to undo ( This means backup everything you'll need )
The following are assuming you're using 10.4.8 and had QE/CI working.

1, Download the wonderful script from the 1 time poster A.Woland

2, Extract it on to your desktop, open a terminal and cd into the

3, Open a Terminal and sudo -s, then cd to the the file(IONetwrkFmlyDRMFix)'s directory..
(i.e /Users/You/Desktop/IONetwrkFmlyDRMFix.app/Contents/MacOS/)

4, Do the thing "./IONetwrkFmlyDRMFix.sh" No quote..

5, chown root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext

6, chmod 755 /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext

7, rm /System/Library/Extensions.*

8, reboot

9, Good Luck and Thank you for A.Woland

1000 botz.. thats sweeeeeeeeet

I've done all as you say.... Nothing... same ol' song... it ask for me again for the license...
i even tried to de-install and re-install the program with no effects...
next thing i'll do is to try as you said to see if my licence file is good for the win version of the program...
Next, if even that is not working i'll.... AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

do i need to install patched JAS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3.iso with ppf1? to install nvidia graphic card and succesfully run maya on nforce 4 mobo?

Well... I got only experience on intel hardware so i can't advice you correctly for amd hardware...
But i can say you this. Use JAS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3.iso with ppf1 but don't use the titan installer inside that dvd.
Use instead the natit 1.0 Universal binary installer located here ( http://www.necnet.de/krass.man/Installers/...0Installer.html ). It allows me to use dvi connection and the system recognize the color profile of my tft monitor.
For maya, i can only give you good luck because i'm having so much problems... I've followed all the advices of that saint man that is yhXDEV... But still i can't run Maya 8.5 on my hackintosh... :-(

Hope that you'll have more luck than me

Have you try use the IONetworkingFamily.kext from 10.4.8 Combo Update?
You'll have to make sure your network work before you patch this..
Also you'll have to chown+chmod+rm /S*/L*/E*.* as before

hi i tried to install basic dvd without patch ppf1 for 10.4.8Amd&Intel

but i can only see my sata disk.. but i want to install it to ata disk... is there some way to do it? or there is only way to install it to sata?

1 more way is to enclose your ATA into a USB2/Firewire Enclosure. Then install into it.
Make sure your momboard can boot form it before wasting your time.

Even with the 10.4.8 combo IONetworkingFamily.kext you provided me... Even with that i got no success... I still have the hope that this
license file will do good on the windows version... If not, i don't know what to do...
Thanks for the help yhXDEV. If we can resolve this, maybe it will be of help to others with my same damn problem.

PS: i'll try to use the 10.4.7 IONetworkingFamily.kext to see if with that i'll have troubles or not...
I remember that with that release i was running maya just fine.

PS2: nothing to do... now i got the windows version of it and i'll try the aw.dat with that to see if it works...

Hi again there... i sucesfully instaled osx 10.4.8 on vmware 5.5 in wondoze... now i need to transfer it onto hard drive and run nativelly... dont u know some fine tutprial to do?

THANKS
???....????.???????...??????????,??????????.?????? .thanks

it worked just great

I copied it manyally and it works perfect
I have amd64 via motherboard via rine2 controler
thank you

I just tired the fix and using yhXDEV's instruction and it broke my internet. I'm typing this in XP. After entering "./IONetwrkFmlyDRMFix.sh", it said something about the bz2 file in Resources not found. Then after a reboot, the system pref/network panel says the network cable is unplugged. How do I fix this?

I'm using 10.4.8 JAS.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3. My original IONetworkingFamily.kext is dated Aug 8th, 2006. Please help.

EDIT. I fixed it. Here's what I did:

- I copied the patched file that yhXEDV posted into the /System/Library/Extensions folder. I just dragged it in there and authenticate it with the root password.
- Open a terminal, typed "sudo su", then root password.
- Typed:
cd /System/Library/Extensions
- Then typed:
chown root:wheel IONetworkingFamily.kext
chmod 755 IONetworkingFamily.kext
rm /System/Library/Extensions.*
- Then this is the part I didn't do before and the reason why it was messed up. I had to go into Disk Utilities, select the OSX partition, and do a Repair Permission. Then I rebooted.

Now my network adapter shows up again and network and Maya runs no problem.

Thanks to semthex, yhXDEV, and the mysterious stranger A.Woland for this fix.

this one works fine here, all others dont work or no network
thanks to all
Harry Bo

I tried it and it worked great.
Thanks for the post

Hi everyone. How come i can't manage to get it working? i've tried everything that's posted on this page but i always end up having my newtork broken and maya never working, even after fixing permissions. Is there something i'm missing somewhere?

yhXDEV!!! man!!! thanks a lot! and semthex and all guys here, finally using xdev directions, not only i finally get over my kernel panic, but maya is running!

thanks again!

( now i just need to learn how to use Maya! jajajajaja )

Yes, the script is prefect for 10.4.8!!

A.Woland, have you a plan to make another Fix for 10.4.9 someday?
