Update: Even using the recovery option in the preceding gibMacOS.bat, which completes successfully like the full option, the following attempt running MakeInstall.bat fails in an identical manner.
I'm afraid I'm hitting the same thing. I saw in another thread it is recommended to clone rather than download the repo in a zip. I gave that a try and still the same thing. It seems the boot file isn't generating in Temporary Files. Any suggestions? Thank-you!

Hi Joshua, I had to take advantage of a MacOS virtual machine to generate the install USB. I just had to copy the files created by the gibMacOS.bat from Windows to the Mac and the follow the steps detailed in the macOS section of the OpenCore Desktop guide. Yes, it is a clunky workaround, but it did work. I would have preferred to keep the setup completely in Windows.
Well I'm fairly certain there is a bug here, though user error is always a very likely possibility. :)
Acidanthera changed the location of the DuetPkg files again - should be fixed with this commit.

Fantastic! I'll be sure to give it a try when I get home
Great, thanks so much!!
I can get the installation USB created, but there is still a wrinkle... At the point where "Updating the MBR with bootaf..." appears, an error dialog is displayed with the message "GetMyFileSize: The system cannot find the file specified." After pressing the OK button, the following dialog is displayed Using the "..." button and navigating to the OpenCore-0.5.7-RELEASE > Utilities> BootInstall folder, all of the boot files are located there and the process will complete successfully.
Strange, I didn't hit that one. MakeInstall did it's thing no problem now. I'm still having issues with booting into it, with just a flashing cursor, but I susspect that's way out side this issue, and even this application. Thank-you!
Once you get all of the other items in place, as per the guide, I believe you'll overcome that symptom. I did see the same thing during my early foray into the build of the system, but taking the steps as laid out in the guide resulted in a successful outcome.
Indeed, I followed it carefully three times, I think it might be something more fundamentally wrong with my motherboard that would take some more advanced tinkering.
If you have a very recent motherboard and or CPU, you may indeed have to do more rummaging around. My kit is a little older - Intel CoreI5 (Haswell) and Asus H97 motherboard, which are certainly well documented. My main Windows box is much later and has had trouble with a few software packages - one was VirtualBox which needed to be upgraded to version 1.6.1 to fix a problem booting a MacOS Catalina VM. Best of luck!
Getting this error on MakeInstall.bat
It looks like the new url for the boot files is "https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/tree/870017d0e5d53abeaf0347997da912c3e382a04a/Utilities/LegacyBoot", instead of "https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/raw/master/Utilities/LegacyBoot/". I am a 45 yo noob guys. Please, correct me if I am wrong.
I replaced "https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/raw/master/Utilities/LegacyBoot/" in MakeInstall.py and it worked again. Is it ok what I did guys? Danks.
Hello, corpnewt did provide a commit (May 18) which corrected the original problem. If you follow the URL https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/raw/master/Utilities/LegacyBoot/ it does resolve to the latest update, but the boot binary does not appear to be present in the package.
Here is how MakeInstall.bat completes:

Hi All, Just experienced the same issue and did a little digging. Corpnewt made a new commit on 7/26/2020 which corrects the self.oc_boot_url path.
Tested the updated MakeInstall.bat with the following result:
-Cheers!
Hmm... this was working OK, but with the newer versions of GibMacos and OpenCore, I new get this failure:

When I look at the temp folder tmp12lrh43y, the EFI folder is actually a sub folder of X64.
Any help would be appreciated.
I´m having the same issue with Catalina recovery Full Install, that EFI thing doesnt want to copy
facing the same problem when try to make a USB installer
Yes, apparently the EFI folder now has been put on subfolders name X64 and 32 and the program fail to find the route.

In this case, any solution without using existed MacOS?
The boot elements are successfully created on the USB. I copied an EFI folder that I had backed up to the USB, so I was able to get the install of Catalina done.
I’m gonna try that👌

This is a little puzzling. The install USB disk did get created ok if I used the recovery option. However, since this type of Catalina install needs to download files from the web and I don't have a wired Ethernet connection available, I do need to have the full install option - not selecting the recovery option. The download of the install components (11 files) does complete with out any errors. However, when running the MakeInstall.bat, I get the following as it attempts to create the USB: Gathering DUET boot files...
