MaciASL VS OpenCore-Post-Install

If you have access to macOS than you can download and open this tool https://github.com/acidanthera/MaciASL/releases. Right after you open this tool will show you your DSDT and than you can search for whatever the guide tells you to search for.

Then I assumed that I need an editor that can open .aml/.dsl files and use it to find some text in the DSDT.aml, which then I have to paste into the FixShutdown-USB-SSDT.dsl. For this purpose I used MaciASL (which is also not mentioned in the instructions).

Can't emphasize enough for anyone new - take the time and get a basic understanding of how ACPI tables work. Tools used - OpenCore 0.7.8, ProperTree, ssdtprgen, iASL (MaciASL), SSDTTime, and Hackintool for exploring the Hardware and IOReg. i'm averaging 2:45 on battery; for reference - it's roughly 4 in Windows, and less than 2 in Kubuntu 22.04

Note that do NOT use iasl or maciASL by Rehab (they are old and not updated) instead use the ones by acidanthera, iasl-stable, maciASL

Also make sure to use MaciASL by Acidanthera (link)

You need proper software to do that. Download maciASL: https://github.com/acidanthera/MaciASL

I think that particular kext requires SecureBoot to be setup.

I know many people have posted about this already and I know what the issue is related to. I have been trying for days to make the FixShutdown-USB-SSDT.dsl method from Dortania work but the instructions are very unclear.. This is actually my first time asking for help because I'm really stuck and don't know how to proceed.
