February 1, 2024 - If that "Mac" you have happens to be running an older CPU, you usually can't get newer versions of macOS without using OCLP. If you wanted to hackintosh your system onto Big Sur, here's roughly how you should do it:

Yes, you can make a virtual machine and then use it to make your installer. I haven’t tried it myself but here’s a guide: https://www.pcsteps.com/2157-mac-os-x-virtual-machine-vmware-player/

r/hackintosh on Reddit: Best way to create a Hackintosh without a Mac
October 13, 2024 -
I've gone through a number of websites on building a Hackintosh, including the FAQ here, and I'm having a hard time finding a tutorial for building a functional Hackintosh without having a Mac or Apple Developer account. So far, I'm stumped. Can someone direct me to a good tutorial for building a Sonoma or Sequioa Hackintosh for those without access to a Mac? I have a Kaby-Lake desktop and, based on the research I've done, I am sure it would be able to run MacOS with no problems, but I need a step-by-step guide that doesn't skip steps (and a lot of the Youtube videos I've seen do). Help!

This is the one most people use: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/ You can create your USB installer from Windows easily, the guide mentions how. But, since this guide is universal, it might not just work after following all the steps and the guide isn't tailored exactly to your hardware. You could check if someone already has a running hackintosh on the same hardware you're running and possibly use their config. On a desktop computer I'd just follow the Dortania guide, though.

Building a Bootable USB Hackintosh without a MAC | tonymacx86.com
June 15, 2012 - Do you know anybody with a mac you can use for an hour or two? that's all it takes. Supposedly it's also possible to install Snow Leopard from the retail DVD, upgrade it to 10.6.8 (so you can use the App Store), then buy Lion from the App Store and create the stick from there. Sounds like a big pain in the ass to me ... This is the way to do it without access to a Mac.
