PylibMS
PylibMS is a library built in Python 3.12+ for the libMessageStudio (LMS) proprietary file formats (msbt, msbp,
msbf) from Nintendo. It supports the following:
| Format | Read | Write | Configuration Support |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSBT | ✅ | ✅ | Complete attribute decoding + tag decoding down to official mstxt Nintendo tool syntax. |
| MSBF | ✅ | ✅ | Flexible node + parameter decoding through configuration definitions. |
| MSBP | ✅ | ❌ | N/A |
This library is designed to support LMS revision 3.0+ from most Nintendo consoles. However, MSBF files that use FLW1 and FLW2 are not supported.
Features and Usage
Simple preview of the library is below. See the wiki for more explanations and examples.

from lms.message.msbfio import write_msbf_path
write_msbt_path("Out_Game.msbt")
