Uranis.n3 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Hello everyone, I m pretty new on this website but also on CustoMac, but I did follow all the guides around and I manage to install my system from scratch running Sierra, here is my spec:MSI Z170A Tomahawk ACI5 6600kGTX 980Hyper Predator SSD disk8 GB Rameverything works so far, and the Alternate Graphics driver make the Sierra experience very smooth and nice, the only problem is happening if I run any kind of Acceleration Graphics it look like corrupted in certain case and it look ok in other.I attached some Screenshots of a game (wow vanilla very old) and the GLX viewer for test.any Idea what it could be ? something I did wrong ?

Allan Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Did you already tried with a previous version of OS X? IMHO, as macOS Sierra is pretty new, and Nvidia WebDrivers too, maybe that's the cause of these low results.

Uranis.n3 Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 that might be true, and since is just a fresh installation I could do easily, but where can I find the Img to download ? I used Sierra because it was the only one I could download from the App Store of my Laptop. any tip ?

Allan Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 For more stability, I recommend use El Capitan 10.11.5 Look: Making a 10.10/10.11 USB Installer /w Clover (UEFI and Legacy) the correct way! For download El Capitan via App Store is not possible, only if you have downloaded it in the past. You can search for some links, but be careful, maybe some .dmgs are infected. EDIT: Hey @Uranis.n3, how did you made the Graphics injection?

Uranis.n3 Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 ok thanks I will look at that ! for the injection I just followed a guide on TonyMacX86 it was about downloading the WebNvidia installer from the Nvidia it self, then run and modify the Config.plist by adding the driver under "SystemParamaters" and then restart, after, because the system wasn't restart properly (monitor goes black), I used a script as showed on a forum regarding this kind of problem based on my SMBios iMac (17) is this correct ? I also tried an older SMBios but they provide the same issues more or less Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/316513-nvidia-webdriver-works-but-with-bad-graphics/#findComment-2293653 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Post your config.plist here please. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/316513-nvidia-webdriver-works-but-with-bad-graphics/#findComment-2293662 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uranis.n3 Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 Here you are P.S. I had to Zip it because I cannot post this kind of file.... it says ! config.plist.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/316513-nvidia-webdriver-works-but-with-bad-graphics/#findComment-2293677 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Try this: config.plist.zip Note: I have some doubts about your config.plist. Why you have patches for Intel HD 4600, and injected Intel HD? You use GTX 980 or Intel HD?

Uranis.n3 Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 hehehe well I just followed the guides around, its honestly my first time with a custom MAC before I had the original one. so yes Have just a GTX 980 and why I did inject the Intel no idea maybe just errors, I will try now your config and I will let you know.

Allan Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Remove all the Intel HD 4600 patches Off-topic: You have the GTX 980 HDMI audio working?

Uranis.n3 Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 ok so: this config.plist give me the same issue like the first time after installing the Nvidia drivers, the system it's boot up and then at last moment the screen goes on "no Signal" but the keyboard works and it look ready, its the monitor that is off or at least it look like now to boot up again I had to disable this driver with Nvidia to VESA flag. Last time I had this issue I just run a method I found on tonyMacX86 and it worked, but with the error I showed you before. Off Topic answer: yes the Audio work brought HDMI to my screen, then I have the speakers attacced to it.

Allan Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Last time I had this issue I just run a method I found on tonyMacX86 and it worked, but with the error I showed you before. In the config.plist that I'd sent to you, add the "nvda_drv=1" boot arg Off Topic answer: yes the Audio work brought HDMI to my screen, then I have the speakers attacced to it. How you did that? You use one of @toleda methods?

Uranis.n3 Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 same, with nvda_drv=1 it simply goes black and no signal. and all the method on the guides around are useless I dunno if I mistake something or not :S In the config.plist that I'd sent to you, add the "nvda_drv=1" boot arg How you did that? You use one of @toleda methods? yes the Toleda methods work, but there are too many files on the Git so I lucky found mine by using IORegistry Explorer and under the section HDMI audio I found the same code as the download and it worked. my was the attached one (PEGO) again I m a complete noob so I m not even sure it worked for this reasons or I was just lucky XD. anyway thanks for now about all this help, maybe tomorrow I will try to look for Elcapitan some where ! ssdt_hdmi-nvidia-PEG0.zip 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/316513-nvidia-webdriver-works-but-with-bad-graphics/#findComment-2293822 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the Clover devs will made more modifications in this new method. yes the Toleda methods work, but there are too many files on the Git so I lucky found mine by using IORegistry Explorer and under the section HDMI audio I found the same code as the download and it worked. my was the attached one (PEGO) again I m a complete noob so I m not even sure it worked for this reasons or I was just lucky XD. Nice! Congrats! I asked you this 'cause I have a GTX 980 too, but without HDMI audio. And the funny thing is that I have the same address in IOReg too Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/316513-nvidia-webdriver-works-but-with-bad-graphics/#findComment-2293839 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uranis.n3 Posted October 6, 2016 Author Share Posted October 6, 2016 Hey so I did reinstall everything from scratch and now everything works !! I mean ok maybe the graphics still acting a bit oddly, but just few times like 1% of the time, I' m not sure about performance yet, I m downloading some game to test so here what I did: (my card its a GainWard GTX 980) 1) installation as classic 2) installation of Nvidia drivers 3) configuration of DDST as from this Guide 4) Run the script from this Guide 5) at this point the Video was working good so I applied the Toleda method. and my Mac works great now, I. don't know if was just lucky but at least I can use it properly now. Good luck. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/316513-nvidia-webdriver-works-but-with-bad-graphics/#findComment-2294104 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NP bro! We don't give support for Tonymac tools, but what you post is a study about Hackintosh. As I can see in both topics, there's not recommendations to use Tonymac tools.
