Вот такие запросы у меня с OCLP 0.6.4 не появляются.

These are the queries I don't get with OCLP 0.6.4.

I tried downloading the latest Ventura installer using OCLP 0.6.4 / Download Installer.
It offered downloading "13.3.1 (22E261)" from Apple, so I used that option.
But when I go to Use existing macOS Installer, it lists it as version "13.3 (22E252)".
The version number of "Install macOS Ventura.app" is 18.3.03.

I wonder if it's an  or an OCLP issue?

Hi, looking for a workaround in path of the root patch for the last apfs snapshot on 0.6.5-n
Applying the patch, it seems not looking for the right location :
Searching for :
/System/Volumes/Update//System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist
issue :

#ls philippemarques@MacBook-Pro-de-Philippe CoreServices % ls /System/Volumes/Update/mnt1/System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist

there's a mnt1 instead of //
Maybe a concatenation missing on oclp ?

The amount of times I downloaded and reformatted my USB to get this fixed. It doesn't. Although it says 13.3, the latest version goes through the install process and then shows a different update progress bar after a couple reboots. At least that's how it happened on my machine.

I'm thinking the 13.3.1 may be a supplemental update? I'm not 100%. But upon returning to the desktop and checking the info in Settings, 13.3.1 was showing.

With 0.5.2 chrome browser slow start-up problem is not solved for me. Any news? Everybody have this problem ?

Did you ever get this solved? I am running Ventura through OCLP 0.6.4. Both Chrome and Brave are extremely slow to launch (always about 55 seconds) from an Apple 128GB blade SSD. After the launch, all is good. No other apps have this problem. Problem disappears under Monterey (sans OCLP). Any ideas?

Thanks to adrianlondon and educovas for your suggestions. I'll try to reload a fresh copy of Keynote from a different source, and also look for an older version of it in TM. Sorry but I'm not familiar with the terms API, DRM or VA

After a few attempts (and clone restores) I managed to do an in-place upgrade cMP5,1 from Monterey to Ventura but since I had an RX6600-XT I got no video. Ready to try this again, but what are the settings I need to use on the OCLP config.plist? I believe there are some video stuff I missed. Any word on Navi 23 support?

There is no support for Navi GPUs on pre-Haswell Macs running Ventura.

The GPU drivers for your iMac doesn't support properly hardware video encode/decode yet so you may have problems with video editing apps and streaming services on Ventura.

For Macs from 2011 and older, you need older versions of Apple apps like Keynote because the GPU acceleration patches doesn't add features needed by them. You can get the latest compatible version here: https://archive.org/details/apple-apps-for-non-metal-macs

Just an update then:

I've now updated the iMac 15,2 to the new OCLP 0.6.5n (26 Apr AEDT download) root patched.
I've also resolved my issues with the camera and microphone not being able to work in Zoom/MSTeams on the iMac 15,2. The solution was to run TCCPlus

After a short test run, all the apps in my usual workflow are not showing any issues.
(MS Office suite, Brave, Mail, Zoom, MSTeams, Adobe Acrobat Pro, Music, Spotify)
Just to be sure, I'll leave my 13,2 iMac for a few more weeks on 13.3 and OCLP 0.6.2 before upgrading as well.
I've now turned off all updates on my macs for the moment.
Thanks to the DEV Team for the tremendous work done.

Just to update, I still get some occasional crashes when I open apple Tv. Some times it works great, some other times the iMac freezes as soon as AppleTv is opened.
I cannot pinpoint what exactly is triggering it.

Would it be worth trying OCLP 0.65n?
Was there any update for CGN1 GPUs in 0.65n?

MBP5,2 updated OTA to 13.4b3 from b2 on external SSD. Using latest OCLP 065n (EFI and post-install patches).

Seems fine, including Safari 16.5 (18615.2.8).

I needed three OTA attempts for this update, the first two returned me to the 13.4b2.
KDK is from the previous (b2).

EDIT: I found a work-around for this issue: minimizing and then maximizing the window resolves the graphics issue described below.

============================================

I'm testing 0CLP 0.6.5n (20 April 2023) with Ventura 13.3.1 on my MBP6,2 (non-metal NVidia Tesla) and all is well with the exception of one annoyance: windows for Microsoft Remote Desktop and VNC Viewer are not showing the full desktop of the remote platform; specifically, the edges of the remote desktop are cut off. For example, when I open a remote desktop to a Server 2016 host, icons at the bottom of the remote desktop are missing the bottom half

Before I start trying to debug a problem specific to my system, is anyone else observing this graphics behavior in Ventura 13.3.1?

I can be wrong, but I have seen nothing related to GCN drivers in commits since 0.6.4
