Mojave Patcher v1.1.0 is now released, which adds support for Dev Preview 5.
Thanks. From my previous post, I corrected the version i had of the Mojave Patcher from 2.0.1 to 1.0.2.
I will download this newer version 1.1.0. My Software Update check is still not showing the latest Developer Preview version.

I wonder what the timezone that gets this update from "Software Update" first.
I know this may be a kludge - Can I drop your latest [macOS Post Install] app (2.3.5) on a b4 stick JUST to post-install a software update dB4->dB5 upgrade. I'm just trying to avoid the long USB stick build after I software update. It all looks pretty self contained.
You can’t only use the post install tool because then there would be no system to boot from, but, you can use the post install tool from any system as long as you can acesss your Mojave drive from that system.
Release notes for latest Developer Preview Beta 5?
While I wait for this latest one to show up via "Software Update", are there any release notes from folks here that already installed it? Mahalo.

I know. That's why it's just convenient to use an existing bootable stick to run the latest post install from. Just wanted to see if there was any reason to worry.
dev beta 5 successfully installed on my iMac 9,1 CoreBrightness works so does night shift and had to reinstall the iSight patch it now works as I only had the b12 version of the Mojave patcher so used that for the post install, I am in the Pacific time zone
No changes were made to the post-install tool in this version, so you don't need to worry about that.
Cool! I believe you beat us all to the punch this time. Congrats. Screenshot?
I’m gonna install now. I would have had this done ages ago if it weren’t for downloads and time machine backups taking forever.
Looks like Dashboard UI glitches have been resolved with DP5.
Cool, I take it that the transparency glitches are still present on patched Macs?
Thanks. Your post-install is always the quickest and most convenient wait to revive a new upgrade. That's why I asked.
This time around I want to capture some snapshots of the extension and other Library folders - just to track the differences between full install and software upgraded install. Just curious.

Yay!
Yeah, those are still present (only in light mode of course). It's unlikely that those light-mode transparency issues will ever be resolved.
If the system boots properly after installing a system update, the best thing to do is open up the Patch Updater tool, select "View Installed Updates", and then re-install all patches from there.

Both.
Oh I so hope that you’re wrong.

I hate Reduce Transparency
You need to remember that there are pretty much NO noticeable UI glitches in dark mode... Which most people are using anyways.
Oh yeah. But haven't had any luck with a system update that boots up flawlessly. (yet)
