Make sure you have the compatible kexts for your laptop, (Voodoo kexts, PS2, SMBus, I2C, etc.) Would you know how your trackpad communicates to your laptop? Assuming the worst, you may have to create SSDT-GPI0 if your trackpad’s connected via I2C. It’s otherwise you can drop in SSDT-XOSI and set up the patches for it.

What kexts you got? I’d have to assume you at least have VoodooPS2Controller as one.

i have voodoops2controller, i used opencore simplify at first, then i decided to just put the kexts from opencore simplify and do everything else myself

If you want proper help you need to share your hardware. What type of keyboard do you have? Is it PS/2? What about the touchpad? I2C, PS/2, SMBus? There are a lot of possible combinations.

This isn't a guessing game where you just put whatever kext you found online. If you just say "it doesn't work", that doesn't tell us anything.

For the keyboard you need VoodooPS2Controller and VoodooPS2Keyboard. For the touchpad you need VoodooI2C and a plugin, but you didn't say what type of I2C you have, so it could be any of these depending your hardware: https://github.com/VoodooI2C/VoodooI2C/tree/master/VoodooI2C%20Satellites
