Got a tip for us?

Nah, it was such a minor change I just left it at 1.2.2.
Oh ok, I didn't see it on the changelog either so I wasn't sure.
I got my GTX 680 card flashed. And even though it runs at 5GT/s it runs the UI and OpenCL and Metal operations about about half speed of my GTX original Titan PC Card at 2.5GT/s
When I get some time, I'll run some benchmarks but the biggest immediately place I see it at my GTX 680 with the same Display Port to HDMI Cable runs only 30 Hz at 4K on the 680, and runs 60 Hz at 4K on the Titan. The titan also has every available scaled screen res. The 680 does not.
Typing also seems laggy on the 680.
This is on Mac Pro 3,1 2008 with 48GB RAM. SSD boot drive. SSD on a separate Home Directory.
So, I'll be going back to my Titan.
Another use test is taking a window and shaking it, seeing if the window keeps up and you see the pointer swinging around. On the Titan, it keeps right up, 680 noticeable lag. Looks like a Flashed Titan 6GB Kepler would be ideal. I may do that. The Kepler Titan really likes Mojave in in PC 2.5GT/s mode.

It's not downloading for me from the direct link and the mirror hasn't been updated since the 26th.
I'm able to download from the direct link, and verified/confirmed the SHA1 value.
@dosdude1, can you please tell me what was added? Will this let me upgrade to and patch the 10.14.1 beta 1 version?

I got the new version from a friend since I couldn’t download it. I’ve tested in and can confirm that APFS now works. However, WiFi is still not working for some reason. It seems like not all prelinkedkernels are created equally. @dosdude1
Hi Julian,
Is there a macOS Mojave Patcher 1.2.3 available to download? Also are you able to install
mojave 10.14.1 beta 18B45d new beta 1 release? Thanks...
@dosdude1
Would it be possible to add the 'Continuity activation' patch to the Patcher?

I had this idea after the night shift patch being added and, thanks to that, it was so easy to install it…

Got it installed and working well. Only issue is everything looks much bigger than under High Sierra. I have my resolution set to default for my display. It feels like the resolution is lower. Do I need to make a manual adjustment or a patch or something? Feels like 800x600.
Messed around more and got 60 Hz to work with the 680 via display port. It's a bit of a different Animal as my Titan seems to prefer my display port to 60Hz HDMI better and the 680 prefers Display port to Display better. I have seen this with other less than 6GB VRAM cards.
So getting 60Hz. It's matches pretty close to the Titan now. Very zippy. I think OpenCL is still faster than the titan at 2.5GT/s. User experience though is about the same. If not a little zippier UI on the 680 it running at 5GT/s.
[doublepost=1538260108][/doublepost]btw, Mojave's new screenshoot tools that use the new Screenshot app uses CMD-SHIFT-5. This in addition to Cmd-shift-3 and 4.
Is your still Mac unusable? You don’t need/have to update to Mojave to continu using your Mac..
Hey everyone, I own the MacBook Pro, late 2011, 13 inch! Just wondering how would I go about installing Mojave on my Mac?
All I'm concerned about is the "weird darkish grey Menu Bar and Finder sidebar" issue, has that been fixed yet?
Please let me know! It is my understanding that the installation should go just fine! I just need some up to date advice about installing it, thanks!

I'm partially agree on the sentence "all prelinkedkernels are not equally". But concerning missing Wifi on macOS Installers (and recoveries HD) they can't work on all machines concurrently for some main reasons:
- All the machines supporting prior 10.11.x can't use the HighSierra IO80211Family.kext
- Some machines that support until HS 10.13.x have issues if using a legacy "Wifi patch" (used for 10.11.x and prior) so need to use the HS IO80211Family.kext or directly the stock Mojave one
- Regarding the Broadcom wifi/bt all-in-one cards it's not only an issue of which IO80211Family.kext version take, but there are also other kext involved into the Broadcom Firmware and they are present in any prelinkedkernel:
BCMWLANFirmware4364_Datastore.kext (The Mojave one is smaller than HS one)
BCMWLANFirmware4364_Hashstore.kext
anyway I guess for those who need an Internet connection into an Installer or Recovery they could use ethernet cable without issues.
Hope this helps, I just installed it on my machine which is the same as yours. Snip of Finder, looks okay to me:
That is its own source code. It's literally only an Info.plist, it just adds entries for old models to the table. (I made it)
I think I posted the source for Ndrvshim and sipmanager but if I didn't here it is [deleted, see first post for updated link]

When first erasing the patch installer USB stick try naming it OS X Base System (with the spaces as indicated) and see if that works.
That's what it took in my particular case, after that had no issues with USB installer.
As a footnote early betas wasn't that much of an issue, at some point naming USB, OS X Base System was what worked for me, as what was posted earlier.

Gibt es Neuigkeiten zur Installation der Beta1 10.14.1? Wurde das Problem behoben, dass er während der Installation stoppt?
Is there no way to install Dev. Beta 10.14.1 on an iMac 10.1?

Yes, I can confirm APFS is working on my MacBookAir 4,1 (it support APFS in 10.13 natively)
Wifi does not work
Thanks @dosdude1 and Julian, big improvement as I no longer need to decrypt the volume for next update
I tested it with USB Installer crated by the updated 1.2.2 patch
It means less security support and then when apple predictably stops supporting High Sierra with iWork and certain iCloud features, loss of functionality.
Do you mean WiFi doesn't work inside the installer or post-install? I'm on MBA 4,2 I have decrypted the SSD before installing (prior to patched 1.2.2 being made available) and everything works now. I'd like to re-encrypt the SSD tho, so please clarify on your feedback on patched 1.2.2.

I mean Wifi doesnt work inside the installer with the latest 1.2.2. Wifi works after installation without the need on wifi patch with my MBA4,1
I can mount the encrypted APFS inside the installer USB with latest 1.2.2. I did not test install, but Disk Utility can mount it. I double check inside terminal and I can read the data inside FileVault2 Encrypted system drive.
on a side note, I think the Wifi inside the USB Installer might be useful in case you need internet to unlock the drive with AppleID because there is no LAN port with my MacBook Air so I have to do it with Wifi. (but I am not sure whether or not it is possible even on supported mac.)
