Hello everyone, we're proud to release OpenCore Legacy Patcher v0.1.8! And with it, work in progress macOS Monterey support!

Currently Monterey support is very much in active development with many previously working hardware in Big Sur now broken. However we've put great effort into restoring these patches with the aid of Jackluke, EduCovas, DhinakG and Khronokernel by re-introducing Intel HD 4000 iGPU support.

Please do note that with macOS Monterey, Intel HD 4000 iGPU users will need to have their root volumes patched to achieve full acceleration meaning no more FileVault or SIP support. 2012 iMacs with supported Nvidia GPUs are however excluded as they can have their internal iGPUs disabled with little consequence.

Additionally, other legacy hardware has been dropped from Monterey. This includes the following hardware:

• All BRCM2046-based Bluetooth cards no longer function
• All Mojave and older era wireless Cards no longer function
  • BCM94322, BCM94328 and Atheros series included
  • BCM943224, BCM94331, BCM94360 and BCM943602 still work great with OpenCore Legacy Patcher

For more information regarding the Bluetooth and wireless issues such as models affected, we recommend checking the macOS 12 MacRumors thread (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/macos-12-monterey-on-unsupported-macs-thread.2299557/). Please remember this is still beta 1 of macOS Monterey and that we've implemented very early beta support. Things can change at any time so please be respectful and understand us developers are still pouring hours into getting all your old machines up and running again.

Additionally we've also added FireWire boot support, courtesy of internetzel's testing, as well as TeraScale 2 Acceleration in Big Sur, courtesy of ASentientBot!

We've got quite a jam packed build, hope everyone enjoys the new release!
