For what it's worth, I've just upgraded to OC 0.6.2 by replacing the OpenCore binaries themselves plus the Lilu, WhateverGreen and AppleALC kexts, without altering my config.plist in the least and everything just works. My previous installed version was OC 0.6.1.
Got a tip for us?

It can work usually, but not properly.
Your config now miss some items, and OC apply the fail safe settings to them automatically. Also, some items aren't exist anymore, just luckily OC able to ignore them.
In some cases, the same item may have different meaning in the newer OC, this can cause more serious issue.
If you use your own config, you should at least study the "differences" document, and mod your config accordingly.
Thanks. I'll look into it and see if I can make some improvements, although I don't see how I'll verify the situation is any better, since it's already working well.

Hello did you try to see if you have full acceleration with VideoProc? Just curious, when I see you said everything works. Thank you.
My GPU is a humble AMD Radeon HD 7970 3 GB. There's nothing to accelerate there. I've ordered an RX 580 which should arrive some time next week. We'll see then.
Same here .. I was told it is a bug that was mistakenly introduced. But if that was the case then it would be the same for the entire line of product \s running that same beta 9 no? Since I have upgrade to beta 9 I do not have that HWACCL anymore..
@cdf OC 0.6.2 changed the directory structure inside, I don't see any reference to X64 directory into guide? This is how I fixed tree.py on line 92:

Did you follow the instructions on the first page? They are pretty self explanatory.What causes this error when I run my version on terminal.

I’ve noticed my firmware is still on 1.39.
but I already have Catalina on the ssd in question.
It worked for me on a 6c Mac Pro 5.1 that I sold now. I think it was on beta 6 or 7 when I sold it.
Sorry, should have done a screenshot. It had a Vega RX 64
I am using the stock config from h9826790
Only removed the entry for the multi cpu in that specific mac pro.
Not upgrading my 12c MP4.1 with the RX5700 XT just yet. Big Sur is too unstable for my daily work.
Because there is no diskAs1, A is a number. You should fit your own number into that position.
Sorry I'm a newbie, not understanding what you mean by "fit your own number into that position."
Do you mean I should use a disk that I see on my terminal ?
You are skipping part of the instructions: Use
diskutil list to find the value for A. Note that this step should always be carried out, because the actual value may change from one boot to the next.
