You only need to rename the IPS file that you want Poke Transporter to be patched, for example if you want Transporter to search for black.sav, rename black.ips into code.ips. Everytime when you want to change the search for different gen 5 games, you need to rename the according IPS files into code.ips. Be sure to enable Game Patching in Luma3DS configuration menu.
what code?????

FYI, you can also use the dream-radar-redirect script in PKSM to generate the IPS patch with the correct path. It's a lot simpler to set up than doing it manually.
Would highly recommend this, I followed the original steps and it worked, but after a while for some reason it stopped working. Using PKSM is a lot more efficient.

PKSM is made with an entirely different use case in mind. You can use PKSM to transfer, edit or create Pokémon, or other save edits. This patch's whole purpose is to allow for connectivity between Dream Radar and non physical games.

You've probably changed some filename, or disabled Luma game patching. I don't see how this just stops working.

Edit: Sorry, I threw some things together. I didn't know there is a PKSM script for that. I still don't see how the previous patch just stopped working.

Does the saves need to be called that cause my save of black2 isn't called that and I can't rename it
if I do it can't read it anymore ?
You can either rename your roms to black2.nds and white2.nds accordingly, so that tools like TwilightMenu try to load black2.sav and white2.sav, or you could use the instructions on github to build patches for your own custom paths

FYI, I can confirm that the Transporter patch works on the Japanese version of the Trasnporter app. It doesn't require a separate Japanese version patch like Dream Radar.

Ah right, sorry that's not clearly called out anywhere. You'll want to pipe the output to a file:
python poke_redirect.py pokear IRDO "/nds/saves/white2.sav" > code.ips
I know this has been inactive for a while, but could someone explain to me how I change the file path? I don't know anything about python so I don't understand what I have to do.

I have triple checked the configuration of folders, names of files (white2.sav and white2.nds) and am not having luck.

As far as the game goes I should only need a pokedex right? Lol maybe that's where my issue lies, I just know it is something small and silly. Please help =) thank you!

I just want to say a huge thank you to @zaksabeast. With Citra Android port, I was able to play Pokemon Dream Radar using my phone's camera. Then, using zak's patch, I transferred the captured Pokemon to my Pokemon White 2 savefile which I opened with melonDS Android port in order to receive them. The goal of Dream Radar is to capture the 3 legendary "Forces of Nature" Tornadus, Thundurus and Landorus. After completing that task and transferring them to White 2 (along with many other pokemon), I used cheats from another of zak's posts, which trick Dream Radar into thinking a Gen 4 Pokemon game is inserted. This unlocks each Gen4's Legendary. Here's an album of my experience:
I'm curious how you made it work on Citra

Nevermind, I managed to make it work
