OCLP developer, not just developer. In order for it to make sense for you to use the alpha, you should have extensive knowledge in reverse engineering, C, and generally a crapton of knowledge about the macOS filesystem, how drivers are compiled, stored, and loaded, and how snapshots work. If you don't have 100% of the knowledge aforementioned, you should not install the alpha.

Not to mention that there is always the possibility that you will brick your machine, so you also need to be willing to sacrifice the Mac that you are running the OCLP alpha with root patches on.
Yes, I know. :) I've been testing for 11 years now. Everything is fine!
 
Can you share the IPSW file for beta 6 (UniversalMac_13.0_22A5331f_Restore) for my Ivy Bridge hackintosh to test ?
I have confirmed that OCLP 0.5.0 can patch Kepler GPU, Intel HD 4600, Iris 6100, and AMD 7970 in my Haswell hackintosh successfully.
Yes, OCLP 0.5.0 (Alpha) can patch Intel Iris Graphics 6100 as Intel HD 4000, I already posted my Real Mac (MacBookPro12,1) with Graphics Acceleration in Ventura 13.0 Beta 6. Just need a few more code lines to add Intel Iris Graphics 6100 without the need of spoofing HD 4000. May be in official release of OpenCore Patcher 0.5.0 it will be working.
 
why my message get deleted here? I have the 500mb file if anyone need it

I could install Ventura on my MacBookPro11,2 without using KDK because the latest version of OpenCore Legacy Patcher 0.5.0 already incorporates whatever KDK does (OCLP KDK-less).

Just create a USB install disk with Ventura Beta 6 using createinstallmedia, run and install OCLP 0.5.0. on it. After the installation, I used the Root Patch option and it automatically detected what had to be included (in my case Intel Haswell Kexts).

Thank you very much to all the developers for extending the life of my Mac a year further...

Have you tried vmware fusion by any chance ? Only app that seems to struggle on running for me.
 
what mean struggle? crashing?

Just failing on booting a virtual machine in VMware fusion the program it runs as normal just fails loading a virtual machine really only asking if anyone else had tried it obviously it’s all beta software so shouldn’t really be trying .

I use Parallels 18 (which still has some graphical glitches in Windows 10) without issues (tested with Ubuntu also).

Tried Fusion, but got an error when opening the VM. It is a pop-up window with a "broken pipe" or something like that.

Regardless of what appears, we cannot forget that this is an alpha OCLP version and all the current known issues listed by @kronokernel are still active:

This is probably because you have two graphics cards. There is a solution : download and launch gfxCardstatus and instead of automatic use the dedicated card (D). Then try to launch the virtual machine.
 
New version of OCLP 0.5.0 today version...

Running my Real Mac MacBookPro12,1 - MacBook Pro 13'' Retina Early 2015 with full hardware acceleration now without spoofing anything.

Intel Iris Graphics 6100 detected and patched.

Now my Ventura 13.0 Beta 6 shows my IGPU as it is (Intel Iris Graphics 6100) and not as Intel HD 4000.

Thanks again to OCLP Team.

Branch used: ventura-alpha => Today's version of 0.5.0 OCLP.

Forgive me for asking, could you point me to a link where I can download the 0.5 alpha? Thanks in advance

You're wrong, what the user linked is the ventura-alpha tree, which is at the current time v.0.5.0; please read also CHANGELOG.md in the ventura-alpha github tree.
Can someone kindly share the compiled 0.5 OCLP?
 
you can clone alpha branch with commands like this


Code:
# Create Dev’s Folder
mkdir -p ~/Developer
# Move into a directory to store the project
cd ~/Developer
# Clone Alpha branch
git clone --branch ventura-alpha https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher
# Move into Project directory
cd ~/Developer/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher
# Install Python dependacies used by the project
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Next Followed the Readme Build
Thanks but I was wondering if someone could kindly provide the already compiled executable
 
You're wrong
If you follow the link and select «Running from source» you will get version 0.4.11. If you download the zip and try to build it through the terminal and Xcode, you will get errors like «line 22, in <module>
from resources import constants», «line 8, in <module> from resources import device_probe», «line 15, in <module> import requests ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests’».
If you download from a direct link, you really get version 0.5.0, but it uses the KDK against the description, the most common result of the work is "error code 71", which is in the picture above (only a new installation of the system will help), and if it works, then after applying the patches, the system does not start. Tested on A1707 2016 and A1398 2014. I, like many, do not understand the reason for the joy that OCLP seems to exist.

If you can't compile, it's safe to assume you lack most of the knowledge needed for alpha software testers. You are trying to put a beta OS on an unsupported Mac with alpha version of a bootloader. Just wait for the finished products.
It's not that I can't compile, it's just that when compiling i get the same errors that @Dimvol reported

Thanks for trying , downloaded parallels 18 and is fine after your suggestion can’t use vm fusion or virtual machine both those error out . Hope the apps just need updating. Tried forcing graphics to one graphic card or the other but still gets stuck.
