Is TB3 working? How to know if it is working?(SSDTs)

[CotntiusTotalus]

Goodmorning to all,

I'm a newbie just approached to hackintosh, greetings from Italy!!
I use OpenCore 0.8.8 and I get a working hackintosh on Oralilla Ventura 13.2. Barely all devices are working except HDMI and DP ( Both on MiniDP and type-c dp delivery) output becouse are tied directly to GPU.
Otherside, always tied to USB type-c, I have i TB3 Titan Ridge JHL7540 controller on my laptop motherboard, that is compliant to github guide to TB3, except that is on my Clevo Motherboard instead of Desktop tested releases.
Then, firstly I've seen on hackintool, USB and PCI devices display thunderbolt controller, like you see below:





So I decided to try to connect something onto usb c, and nothing happened, no USB key, no thing is working on it.
Therefore I started to search SSDT-TB3 in HackinDROM only for trying, and I downloaded the Gygabyte Titan Ridge and put it on ACPI folder and restarted the laptop.
Surprisingly , after restart, I tried to connect a USB c key and a docking HDD station (usb c) and they worked smoothly as they recognized as USB 3 devices.
What that's mean?
Because, in order to have external monitor, I'm planning to use a TB3 Wavlink docking station, but I have to buy it, and this give me hopes that I can things work, because type-c was activated after the SSD-TB3-Injection.
Is there a possibilty to try TB3 without a TB3 devices?Figure out that is working?
Because TB3 docking station is expensive and I don't know how to be sure if my TB3 working effectively.
I didn't do anything instead of put SSD-TB3-HackinDROM.aml in ACPI folder.

Thank you in advance for your precious time,

Marco


PS: this are my boot- args:
-v alcid=13 watchdog=0 igfxonln=1 agdpmod=vit9696 -vi2c-force-polling -igfxblr -noDC9 igfxfw=2 igfxagdc=0 uia_exclude=USR1;USR2

No PR Files attached. As per Hackintool, your implementation for Thunderbolt isn't correct.

Type-C and Thunderbolt 3 use the same "Type-C Interface" but internally it differs. Here's what you can understand in a more simple way. When you connect a Thunderbolt Device, it will connect and fall back to Thunderbolt Bus. Whereas, connecting a Type-C Device will fall back to XHC Bus. If the Type-C Device is USB 2.0 (such as iPad), it will fall back to Intel's "built-in" XHC Driver.

What do you mean when you say PR files attached?
But can you explain me why when I put the TB3 ssdt , usb c start working?
Am I near to the solution?
What more I need to do for implementing TB3?
Because I don't find so much documentation.
Here I attached alla the file that can help to understand, in order:
-AIDA64 Report, did from Windows 10 boot( an .htm file with all hardware in deep report)
-My efi
-Some photos of the status of configuration (hackintool)

Tell me If you need something more to understand.

Thank you in advance and Best Regards

Marco

But can you explain me why when I put the TB3 ssdt , usb c start working?

It's the SSDT that provides HotPlug for TB+Type-C. If implemented correctly, both will work. As you're using an SSDT, it's not a surprise why your Type-C works

Am I near to the solution?

Because I don't find so much documentation.
