Twinkie is a QOL modification for TrackMania Forever, a practical alternative to Openplanet, but for TMNF and TMUF.
It features a modular (or plugin-like) system for overlays and patches, that makes it practical to customize every feature available.
To use Twinkie, you will need to install the Trackmania Modloader, and after that, go grab the latest release from the Releases page, and install Twinkie using the TwinkieInstallerModloader.exe file. Alternatively, if you're using a portable Modloader install, you can go grab the TwinkieModloader.dll as well, for a manual setup.

To GreffMASTER and brokenphilip for helping me during development. brokenphilip has his own tool for TMUF and GreffMASTER as well (for TM1.0) if you're interested in more cool mods for old TM games.
GreffMASTER also provided me with a helpful list of class members and their offsets for TMF, alongside brokenphilip helping me along my RE journey for this project <3
- Medal.tv requires a work-around to function properly (see below)
- Hiding the in-game HUD might also hide the Twinkie UI or make it look weird. To fix this, try changing your shader quality to something different.
Due to Medal's uncooperativeness, you might have to do these following steps to make Twinkie work alongside it:
- Make sure your Medal app is up to date first.
- Then, in Settings > Advanced and in the "Advanced | Recording section, turn on "Force Window Capture". Keep in mind that this is an experimental setting, it might not work at all or it might make your clips stuttery but it is worth trying.
- Ghost Editor, allows you to access the ghost editor without the cheat code.
- Dashboard, an input display and gear display (tachometer, and gear number indicator) with customizable options
- Checkpoint counter, does what it says right on the tin
- Medals window, for easily viewing medals
- Tweaker, for customizing your render distance (even though TMUnlimiter already does that)
- Grinding Stats, a module that keeps track of your progress for each map
- Always official, that brings up the Official Mode menu when you reset (only for United accounts)
Nickname patchDO NOT USE THIS! This module causes interference with server databases, costing server owners a lot of time patching it.

The visual studio solution already comes with various build options for some TMF variants.
Building in x64 is not supported since TMF is 32-bit.
If you're having compilation issues, make sure you're ONLY compiling to x86/Win32.
Building for United and Nations is not currently supported. Only Modloader/Premium builds are.
There currently aren't any monetary ways of supporting me, so if you like Twinkie and you have a github account, please star it so that more people see it, or be kind enough to share it with your friends.
