First of all, download the latest release of Imposter's Ordeal! It requires .NET 5.0. You will also need to dump the romfs and exefs of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond 1.3.0 (not the full game file, and not Pokémon Luminescent Platinum).
When you first open Imposter's Ordeal, direct it to the folder containing the "romfs" and "exefs" for Brilliant Diamond 1.3.0. Afterward, make sure you click "Add Mod" in the top left corner to load Luminescent Platinum on top of that. Randomization is only supported in releases 2.0.4b or newer.
For randomization, we are interested in the main body of the application with the following tabs: Pokemon / Moves and Items / Encounters / Misc. Each section controls how deeply you'll wish to randomize your game! When you find a category you would like to randomize, make sure to check it off and adjust the settings as you like.
- "BST Logic" means that things randomized with these sections will try to keep randomized numbers similar to their original destinations: randomized evolution with BST logic will likely keep most third-stage evolutions as third-stage evolutions because they all have higher end BSTs.
- "Type Bias" means that randomized options will still try to match things to their original type counterparts, such as in movesets.
- "Type Theme" in Trainer Pokémon means that it will try to preserve the typing to the original enemy team members while randomizing what those 'mons actually are.
- "Evolution Logic" in wild encounters and trainer Pokémon means that you won't suddenly find first-stage Pokémon in Victory Road, or third-stage Pokémon in Route 201.
- When randomizing encounters or trainer fights, please make sure to switch to "Uniform" over "Empirical". Otherwise you will end up with truly wild amounts of fully-evolved Electric-types due to lots of dummy Volkner fights in the data.
- There is currently no way to randomize your starter selection without breaking Lumi, as both rely on changes to things that are hard-coded into the game and don't play well together.
Once you've selected all your options, go to the left-side menu and select "Randomize"! After it's done processing, head to the folder where you placed Imposter's Ordeal, take the "exefs" and "romfs" from the Output folder, and install them as you would install Luminescent Platinum normally.
Have fun!
How to dump the romfs/exefs (click to expand):

EDIT: I managed to do it and is working perfect.
if anyone needs help i will help, dont hesitate to ask
It is in that folder where you have to locate the Impostor Ordeal.
After that, just follow the steps as mentioned in the post and it should work.
My problem was that i was not taking the exefs and romfs from the output folder that it is mentioned.
I hope you can do it.
to clarify the steps:
when you right click the game in Ryujinx and click "extract the contents of the romfs"
it will create a folder called "Data" for you
this is because, that "Data" folder is the content and what is usually inside of the "romfs" folder
So, create a folder called "romfs" and then put the "Data" folder inside it
Ta-da! you've now setup the romfs folder
Now, when Imposter's Ordeals asks you "where can i find your romfs folder"
You want to give it the folder that has the romfs folder inside it
if you put the romfs folder you made on the desktop, then give it your desktop folder as an example, and this will work fine
However its nice to have things separate, if you don't want IO to attempt to load everything on your desktop, simply make another folder called "Game Dump" or something and put the romfs by itself in there, then show IO that folder you made, this will also work
Apologies for any confusion of terms, you're dealing with a couple separate Programs that have different Ideas of what things are
EDIT: Found the problem: You have to deactivate the original Lumi Platinum Mod to make the randomized File Work.
EDIT: I got it to work, my issue was fixed from PeedLA suggestion, thank you all for the advice as well
cree una carpeta con el nombre de (romfs) y aquí pegan las dos carpetas "romf" y "exef" sin extraer nada
siga los pasos del tutorial a partir de aquí
