🚀  My dear friends,
I proudly present the The OCLP-Plus (Tahoe Patch Set).

⚠️ This Patch Set is intended exclusively for advanced Hackintosh systems.

  • This is NOT a project to create patches for unsupported Macs.
  • It does not include additional fixes for graphics acceleration or frameworks for creating root patches for unsupported Macs.

🌟 Key Features

🏔️ Full macOS Tahoe Support

Modern root patching support for macOS Tahoe 26.0 (25A5316i) through macOS 26.4.1 (25E253) and later versions.

Supported Mac Models (SMBIOS): For macOS Tahoe, this patch set is designed for the following native or spoofed models:

  • iMac: iMac20,1, iMac20,2
  • MacBook Pro: MacBookPro16,1, MacBookPro16,2, MacBookPro16,4
  • Mac Pro: MacPro7,1

This set creates only draft templates for manual configuration and does not generate ready-made EFI folders.

  • To avoid unexpected errors I recommend using lzhoang2801 OpCore Simplify.

  • OCLP-Plus (Tahoe Patch Set) supports macOS Sequoia 15.7.5 (24G624) and earlier, such as OpenCore Legacy Patcher 2.4.1.

  • Note: For macOS Sequoia and earlier, compatibility and SMBIOS requirements follow the standard limits of each respective operating system.

📶 Wireless & Continuity

Restores full functionality for Broadcom-based wireless chipsets (BCM4360 and similar), including:

  • AWDL support specifically for macOS Tahoe 26.x.
  • Stable Wi-Fi (2.4GHz / 5GHz).
  • AirDrop, Handoff, and AirPlay via fully synchronized frameworks.

❌Non-functional features

On majority of patched Macs, iPhone Mirroring and Apple Intelligence won't be functional.

  • iPhone Mirroring requires T2 for attestation and Apple Intelligence requires an NPU only found in Apple Silicon.
  • The patcher is unable to provide a fix for these as they're hardware requirements.

🚫 Intel Wi-Fi (AirportItlwm) is NOT supported without spoofing as Broadcom

This fork is exclusively optimized for Broadcom-based wireless chipsets .

  • If you require Intel Wi-Fi patches for Tahoe, please use OCLP-Mod.

🔊 Modern Audio (AppleHDA Restoration)

Starting with macOS Tahoe Beta 2, Apple removed the legacy AppleHDA.kext. This patch set brings it back, ensuring built-in audio works on supported legacy systems.

  • Manual Toggle: A new "Modern Audio" toggle in the Root Patches menu allows you to enable or disable this restoration manually.
  • KDK Integration: Automatically handles the necessary Kernel Debug Kit (KDK) requirements for audio driver linking.

🛠️ macOS 26.4 Compatibility Fixes

  • APFS-Only Environment: Adapted the patching logic to handle the removal of HFS+ in macOS 26.4. The patcher now utilizes APFS for all internal resource mounting and operations.
  • Elevated hdiutil Permissions: Fixed a critical issue where macOS 26.4 disallowed mounting disk images without root privileges.
  • The patcher now correctly escalates via the Privileged Helper Tool.

⚠️ Important Technical Notes

  • Graphics patches for Deprecated accelerators in Tahoe are officially impossible.
  • Use Sequoia for full acceleration.

🔑 AMFI & Security

  • AMFI Alert: To successfully bypass Apple Mobile file integrity checks, you must use AMFIPass.kext with the  -amfipassbeta boot argument.
  • Note: If third-party browsers (e.g., Firefox) or camera/mic permissions fail, ensure the -amfipassbeta boot argument is present.
  • SIP Requirements: System Integrity Protection must be set properly.
  • Typical Value: (CSR_ALLOW_UNTRUSTED_KEXTS | CSR_ALLOW_UNRESTRICTED_FS).
  • OpenCore config.plist: NVRAM > Add > 7C436110-AB2A-4BBB-A880-FE41995C9F82 > csr-active-config (data) <03080000>.
  • Clover config.plist: Set RtVariables > CsrActiveConfig (string) 0x803.
  • Secure Boot Model: To allow root patching for Wi-Fi and other drivers, Apple Secure Boot must be disabled.
  • OpenCore: Set Misc > Security > SecureBootModel to Disabled.

Clover: Ensure RtVariables > HWTarget is NOT set (must be empty) or commented out (e.g., HWTarget?) to keep Apple Secure Boot inactive.

🔄 Apply Changes: Reset NVRAM

  • To ensure these new security settings (SIP, AMFI, and Secure Boot) take effect, you MUST perform a Reset NVRAM after saving your config.plist.
  • OpenCore: Select "Reset NVRAM" from the boot picker menu (or press Space if it's hidden).
  • Clover: Press F11 at the boot screen to clear NVRAM and restart.

⚒️ Build and run from source

💾 Installation Requirements

💡  Before Running Post-Install Patches:

⚠️ Root Volume Dirty Error: If the patcher detects that the system volume has been modified (e.g., patches already applied or seal broken), it will block further patching to prevent system instability.

  • To re-patch: You must first use the "Revert Root Patches" button to restore the original system state.
  • If no manifest is found: If the volume is modified but the patcher cannot find a record of what was installed, it will display a "Root volume is modified" error.
  • In this case, you should still attempt a "Revert Root Patches" or reinstall macOS to clean the volume.

 

🛠️ Advanced: Manual Force Restore (Emergency only)

Spoiler

If the "Revert Root Patches" button fails to clear the dirty state, you can manually force macOS to boot from the last sealed snapshot via Terminal: 

sudo bless --mount /Volumes/YourVolumeName --bootefi --last-sealed-snapshot

Replace YourVolumeName with your actual system drive name (e.g., Macintosh\ HD).


KDK is mandatory: For macOS 13 through Tahoe (26.x), the Kernel Debug Kit must be installed for drivers like AppleHDA to link correctly. Use the Help > Download KDK button.

 

⚠️ Resource Dependency Notice

  • Patcher Resources: This version relies on the PatcherSupportPkg for native Tahoe binaries.
  • Important: Please be aware that if this resource becomes unavailable for any reason (e.g., server downtime or repository removal), the OCLP-3.2.1 Tahoe Patch Set will lose its ability to fetch the necessary binaries, and root patching will fail.

How do we choose between the competing versions of OCLP. More importantly, I had a few issues and settled on OCLP 3.0.0. From what I've been able to glean, 3.0.0 is by Ybronst who is the developer of this release. Can I just upgrade or do I need to uninstall and reinstall?

Does it itself not offer to update? If not, it's best to reinstall it.

It did not but I reverted the other one. Uninstalled it, even though that did nothing. Then I installed 3.1.8, applied patches and seems to work. I wish someone would explain the different OCLP variants and which one we should use.

This still doesn't address graphic support does it?  We still have to wait for the original OCLP team to update to 3.0.

Yes, it doesn't solve the problem, but the OCLP team may delay updating to 3.0 until support for macOS 26.x ends.
And sound and modern network are already supported in my release.

You can use any of those that support a system version later than: macOS 26.3.1 (25D2128). 
If you are not afraid of hieroglyphs, then I recommend OCLP-Mod but the only two difference between mine and OCLP-Mod.
My has the native support of Clover Boot Loader and the absence of unnecessary patches for Intel Wi-Fi adapters.

Yes.  But I don't need sound or wi-fi just graphic support for haswell.  So I still will not install OCLP at this time.  I'm patient and will wait.  Actually my optiplex runs not to badly without patches.  I just have problems minimizing applications.  That is quite slow and freezes up till it's done.

I also noticed that the logs indicate macOS version 26.3.2. is a specialized, day-one software update designed exclusively for the MacBook Neo.
If you have a laptop, I cannot guarantee that you will be able to boot successfully after installing OpenCore-Patcher.pkg.
Although from the signature I see that you have a desktop Asus h170m-plus.
In this case, I would recommend installing the normal desktop release of macOS 26.3.1 (25D2128).
And lastly: If you don't have a discrete video card, this patcher is not for you. Also, I didn't publish OpenCore-Patcher3.1.8.pkg (The file in my repository is called OpenCore-Patcher.pkg and nothing else.).
Make sure you download the installer from my repository.

I wanted to ask you if this OCL can make the FULL Tahoe Profile work on my Acer in the signature (I'm attaching the photo) like it does on the Sequoia.
I haven't had time to try it yet.

Unfortunately, the OCLP-Plus 3.1.8 Tahoe Patch Set, like other patchers, is not designed for this device.

There are currently no working drivers for Intel HD Graphics 4400, 4500, and 4600 GPUs in Tahoe, and no verified patches as of yet — but hopefully there will be soon.

Maybe in the future!

Minor Update: UI Branding
Hi all,

Updated the app interface name and aligned installation package names. No changes were made to the core logic or functionality. If these cosmetic updates are not a priority, there is no need to reinstall.

Best regards! 🙂

Meet OCLP-Plus 3.1.9 (Tahoe Patch Set) 😉
OCLP-Plus changelog
 

Legacy patches (Intel/Nvidia/AMD/Wireless) re-enabled for XNU < 25.

Strict filter for Tahoe (XNU 25+): Legacy patches excluded to prevent instability (AppleHDA/Wireless) and root patching failures.

ModernWireless/Audio remain enabled for all versions (including Tahoe).

Maintained original patch detection order.

Meet OCLP-Plus 3.1.9 (Tahoe Patch Set) 😉
OCLP-Plus changelog
 

 Re-enable legacy hardware patches (Intel, NVIDIA, AMD, legacy wireless, etc.)
 Only include these patches when the system's XNU major version is less than 25 (Tahoe)
 Ensure ModernWireless and ModernAudio remain enabled for all versions (including Tahoe and newer)
 Maintain the original patch detection order

My dear friend,

 

many thanks for your continued work on OCLP-Plus.

 

From my current experience on macOS Tahoe (XNU ≥ 25), re-enabling legacy GPU patches unfortunately does not seem to provide any practical benefit on affected systems.

 

In fact, these patches often fail during the root patch process and may leave the system in an inconsistent state, which can subsequently impact otherwise working components such as AppleHDA and ModernWireless.

 

For this reason, I currently observe better overall stability when completely avoiding legacy GPU patches on Tahoe and focusing solely on ModernAudio and ModernWireless.

 

Systems requiring legacy GPU support are, in my opinion, still better served with OCLP 2.4.1 under Sonoma or Sequoia.

 

Just wanted to share these observations — hopefully helpful for further refinement.

 

Cheers,

KGP 👍🏼
