"ATY,bin_image", Buffer (0x00010000) { // Put your VBIOS here (you could extract it with Linux or Windows) }, ...this example is for ssdt, but i propose to use device properties instead Edited April 12, 2022 by RobertX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BALDY_MAN Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 sorry I thought you were modding the bios and the file was to big for the rom chip. I have modded motherboard bios years age and yes the is padding in some motherboard bios. I was thinking perhaps you could take out the padding and make the WEG Kext to a ffs file and add it to the gpu rom. (I don't know enough about bios coding it was just a passing thought) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
