OC Version: 0.8.2 Beta

Additional Kexts: WEG 1.6.0 beta, VirtualSMC 1.6.0 beta

Edits to config.plist: Set AvoidRuntimeDefrag to No Under Booter>Quirks

How I installed: Installed a fresh copy of MacOS Monterey and downloaded the profile for MacOS Ventura then run the OTA update. To make it appear in the settings, however, i had to change the SMBIOS from MPB 13,1 to 14,1. After the update I brought the SMBIOS back to 13,1 and it remained bootable thanks to the boot arg -no_compat_check.
