OC tool from the Finder
This is showing examples from version 1.8 of the tool, I will update to new examples soon, but the usage is similar, the only big difference is that the config.plist
used needs to be placed in the INPUT
folder, not the RELEASE
folder
For those who wish to use the tool from the Finder rather than the Terminal you can double click on the tool which is the same as running ./OC-tool -uo build release
in the terminal.
Keep in mind that this is still a command line tool, so xcodebuild
, nasm
, and mtoc
tools will still need to be present.
Open the Terminal app and enter git clone https://github.com/rusty-bits/OC-tool
- copy
config.plist
into theINPUT
folder - double-click
OC-tool
to run it
Shown here, HfsPlus.efi
is enabled in config.plist
but there is no repo to build it from.
Place HfsPlus.efi
in the extras
folder then double click OC-tool
to continue
Tool will
- create
resources
folder - build required resources
- create an
EFI
folder and copy the resources in
When finished, OC-tool will open up to the EFI
folder in the macOS Finder
Keep note of any warnings, for example shown here is the warning that the Sample.plist
structure from acidanthera has changed. This indicates some changes were made to OpenCore and you should check and update your config.plist
file.
On subsequent runs, OC-tool will
- check for updates
- pull or build new or changed resources
- create a new
EFI
based on any changes made inconfig.plist
Shown here, IntelMausi.kext
was enabled, HfsPlus.efi
and AppleGenericInput.efi
were disabled.
