Please remember it is highly suggested that you have a backup in place before installing new system software on your main devices, overwriting any stable releases.Īpple and all patch developers are not responsible for any potential damage or data loss caused by using pre-release software or unofficial support patches. This will never change and the only way out is changing the GPU (iMac Late 2009-Mid 2011 and MacPro systems) with a Metal compatible one or buying a new Mac. Such apps may cause just a feature loss or will completely fail on non-Metal system. Additionally most applications rely more and more on Metal GPU features. So be patient as developers are hard at work, however expect no error free support in Monterey. And with TeraScale 2 acceleration, this took almost 3 years to achieve public acceleration. Remember that it took over 300 days from Big Sur's unveiling to achieve public acceleration for non-Metal GPUs. Please understand no one can predict when there will be patch sets ready or if current glitches can or will ever be resolved. Q: When can we expect OpenGL/non-Metal GPU Acceleration?Ī: Starting with OCLP version 0.2.5 legacy OpenGL/non-Metal acceleration for Monterey has been implemented. For users who wish to install the HD4000/Kepler acceleration patches on non-OpenCore Legacy Patcher machines see here: How to Root Patch with non-OpenCore Legacy Patcher Macs/Hackintoshes Q: How can I enable acceleration on my newly unsupported metal GPU?Ī: Currently one can regain acceleration for both the Intel's HD4000 iGPUs and the NVIDIA Kepler dGPU via OpenCore Legacy Patcher. For easy troubleshooting and discussion with developers, we recommend joining the OpenCore Patcher Paradise Discord. ![]() Supports macOS 10.7, Lion and later if Python3 is installed manually.Supports macOS 10.9, Mavericks and later to run.While the preparation uses a simple GUI the Monterey installation and updating happens in the same way as on supported systems via System Preferences. This is currently the only option offering system updates via Apple software update like all supported Macs as well as Intel HD4000 iGPU and NVIDIA Kepler acceleration. OpenCore Legacy Patcher by and is a completely different approach compared to older patcher methods based on OpenCore.As time goes on, we expect many more developers to join in with their own implementations of the patching process: Q: Where/how can I download a patcher tool?Ī: Currently there is only one patcher that will soon be supporting macOS 12, Monterey being OpenCore Legacy Patcher. It contains a support statement about unsupported Macs running Monterey, too. Q: How can I use this installer on my unsupported Mac?Ī: Before hitting the download button of the patcher tool (see below) please check OpenCore legacy Patcher's documentation. Create the USB installer following this official Apple guide. Q: How to create a USB installer after downloading the InstallAssistant package?Ī: Install the package, it creates an app named Install macOS Monterey in your applications folder. Q: How do I determine what Mac model I have?Ī: To determine your Mac's SMBIOS model identifier, simply run the below command in Terminal: Installing macOS Monterey on an unsupported Mac BCM943224, BCM94331, BCM94360 and BCM943602 still function correctly with OpenCore Legacy Patcher.BCM94322, BCM94328 and Atheros drivers currently can't be re-added currently.BRCM2046 and BRCM2070 Bluetooth modules have been dropped from Monterey.OpenCore Legacy Patcher has re-added support for these GPUs in v0.1.7.This means laptops with Intel HD 4000 GPUs will no longer have graphics acceleration such as the Macmini6,x, MacBookAir5,x, MacBookPro9,x and MacBookPro10,x Compared to macOS Big Sur, macOS Monterey has dropped support for Intel's Ivy Bridge Graphics.OpenCore Legacy Patcher has re-added support for these systems in v0.2.5.This is affecting all stock 2012/2013 Mac models with Nvidia GPU including iMacs and MacBookPro systems, MacPro3.1/4.1/5.1 with Nvidia PCI GPU cards, and all iMac Late 2009 - Mid 2011 which have been modded with a MXM Nvidia Kepler GPU. Early-2009 or newer Mac Mini or white MacBook:.Late-2008 or newer MacBook Air or Aluminum Unibody MacBook:.Early-2008 or newer Mac Pro, iMac, or MacBook Pro:.++ Catalina supported system capable of running Monterey with Kepler (Beta 7+) and/or HD4000 patches + Does not support any form of graphics acceleration currently Nvidia dGPU based systems need Kepler patches (Beta 7+) * Not officially supported in macOS Big Sur, but are fully capable of running both Big Sur and Monterey with a Metal-compatible GPU and upgraded WiFi/BT card. ![]()
