- OC to 0.6.3 and upgrade various Acidanthera kexts
- Restructured docs: depricated legacy things and combined duplicates.
-`YogaSMC` is now the preferred method to handle Fn keys instead of ThinkpadAssisstant.
- Note that `YogaSMC` is still in its infancy, so you still prefer ThinkpadAssistant, use `SSDT-Keyboard-Legacy.dsl` and `/patches/OpenCore Patches/ Keyboard-Legacy.plist`
- Thank you @zhen-zen for the great kext and app.
- Updated `config.plsit`:
- Removed depricated ACPI renames in accordance with new ACPI patches.
- Added `Arch` value to each kext entry in accordance with new OpenCore doc.
- Added Thunderbolt 3 Device Properties.
- Added `ExtendBTFeatureFlags` value to replace `BT4LEContinuityFixup`
- Reorganized subdirectories within `/patches/` to make things easier to find and understand.
- Renamed `3_README-POSTinstallation.md` to `SUMMARY.md` since it's not really a step but more of an overview of what patches what.
- More readble and better writing of `SSDT-Keyboard`
- New `SSDT-PNLF` to accomodate `AppleBacklightSmoother.kext`
- New battery patch `SSDT-Battery` that fixes accesses to 16byte-EC-field HWAC (Issue #82).
-`SSDT-Sleep` is an all-in-one sleep patch over `SSDT-PTSWAK`, `SSDT-GPRW`, `SSDT-EXT*`
- It is no longer necessary to set sleep mode to `Linux` in BIOS as it is now indepently set by `SSDT-Sleep`
-`If (_OSI ("Darwin"))` and `SSDT-DTPG` are now replaced in favor of `SSDT-Darwin` and `OSDW`, just like in genuine Macs.
- Removed `USBPorts.kext` in favor of patching/mapping via ACPI with `SSDT-XHC1`, `SSDT-XHC2`, and `SSDT-USBX`
-`README.md`:
- Turned different sections into menus for better readability.
- Merged `3_README-POSTinstallation.md` into the `SUMMARY` section.
- Set `HibernateMode` to `NVRAM` instead of `Auto`
-`SSDT-HPET`, similar to genuine Macs, HPET is now disabled within `SSDT-INIT`
#### Remark
- A large of these changes are due to the hardwork of [@benbender](https://github.com/benbender), who debugged and authored many of the new ACPI patches. Thank you for your hard work!
| Fingerprint Reader | ❌ | `DISABLED` in BIOS to save power if not used in other OSes. | Linux support was only recently added |

| TrackPad | ✅ | `VoodooPS2Controller.kext` or `VoodooSMBus.kext` and `VoodooRMI.kext` | I prefer `VoodooRMI.kext` so that is the repository default. |
| Multimedia Keys | ✅ | `BrightnessKeys.kext` and [YogaSMC](https://github.com/zhen-zen/YogaSMC) or [ThinkpadAssistant](https://github.com/MSzturc/ThinkpadAssistant) with legacy patches | YogaSMC is the repo default, `SSDT-Keyboard-Legacy.aml`, `patches/OpenCore Patches/ Keyboard-Legacy.plist` if you want to use [ThinkpadAssistant](https://github.com/MSzturc/ThinkpadAssistant) instead |
| iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime | ✅ | Whitelisted Apple ID, Valid SMBIOS | See [dortania /OpenCore-Install-Guide](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/iservices.html) |
| Continuty | ✅ | Native with `BCM94360CS2`. `ExtendBTFeatureFlags` to `True` otherwise. | See `/patches/Network Patches/` for specific network card. |

- A macOS machine(optional): to create the macOS installer.
- Flash drive, 12GB or more, for the above purpose.
- Xcode works fine for editing plist files on macOS, but I prefer [PlistEdit Pro](https://www.fatcatsoftware.com/plisteditpro/).
- [ProperTree](https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree) if you need to edit plist files on Windows.
- [MaciASL](https://github.com/acidanthera/MaciASL), for patching ACPI tables and editing ACPI patches.
- [MountEFI](https://github.com/corpnewt/MountEFI) to quickly mount EFI partitions.
- [IORegistryExplorer](https://developer.apple.com/downloads), for diagnosis.
- [Hackintool](https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/335018-hackintool-v286/), for diagnostic ONLY, Hackintool should not be used for patching, it is outdated.
- [SPI Programmer CH341a and SOIC8 connector](https://www.amazon.com/Organizer-Socket-Adpter-Programmer-CH341A/dp/B07R5LPTYM) are needed if you are going to mod your BIOS/TB3 controller for optimizations and a better and more native macOS experience.
- Patience and time, especially if this is your first time Hackintosh-ing.
