TMTRAINER Start(T MELT)

Description
Ever had a Gameboy go through the wash? It's kinda like that.
This mod makes every character start with the item TMTRAINER (https://bindingofisaacrebirth.fandom.com/wiki/TMTRAINER). You might recognise it as the item that leads to corrupted items in challenge #45 DELETE THIS(also known as T MELT).

WARNING: This item significantly increases the chance of the game crashing. It may not play nicely with other mods. You use this at your own risk and it should be disabled immediately if you encounter any problems.

FAQ

Q:What if I haven't unlocked TMTRAINER on my file yet by beating The Beast as Tainted Eden?
A:TMTRAINER will still be given to you, it does not require it to be currently unlocked on the file.

Q:Where did the music go?
A:When TMTRAINER is given to the player the music fades out. This means the first room of every run will be silent. If you started the run from the character select, the music will come back in the next room you visit. If you reset by pressing the R key(not the item) or restarting after death then the music will resume once a new music track is triggered, most notably visiting the shop on the first floor will re-enable the music.

Q:Is it possible to remove it from the character mid run?
A:TMTRAINER counts as passive item and can be re-rolled by full run re-rolls. Given you will not find any non-corrupted items though, your only option to take advantage of this is through dice rooms.

Q:Does it have any strange interactions with X character?
A:Most characters function normally but there are a couple of note:
Tainted Isaac:TMTRAINER takes up a passive slot, so once you reach more than 8 passive items it is possible to remove it from your character. At that point the items you find will return to normal.
Tainted Cain:Doesn't actually change the character. The items you find will be corrupted but since Cain's actual recipes remain the same, ultimately nothing changes.
Tainted Lazarus:The music will fade out a second time when you first flip to dead Lazarus. As previously mentioned, entering a shop should re-enable it.
Tainted Eden:Upon being hit for the first time TMTRAINER will be re-rolled. However if you manage to pick up any corrupted items before being hit, they will remain and not be re-rolled.
Tainted Bethany:Lemegeton will spawn Sad Onion wisps with corrupted names but they won't actually do anything. The only value of the wisps from Lemegeton is blocking shots.

Q:What kind of runs can I actually complete?
A:TMTRAINER no longer corrupts items needed for progression, meaning all kinds of runs can be completed.

Still works on my machine. Using any other Character mod will break it.

Using this mod with anything beyond basic graphical and sound mods is not recommended. There is a conflict somewhere but I would need your entire mod list and even then it might be impossible to get it working at the same time as another mod. If you really want it working with other significant mods active, you'll have to find which mod is causing the conflict and decide which one you want active.

The mod has not been updated in two years because the vanilla game has not been updated significantly in two years. I won't be updating this mod unless there is an update to the vanilla version of the game that breaks it as I can't keep up with the entire modding community to maintain compatibility for what is essentially a joke mod.

@Teddywutwut So what happens is that whenever I play a new game, TMTRAINER does not appear in the character's inventory. I do have other mods installed, like TBOI Epiphany and External Item Descriptions, but none of them appear to change the inventories of the vanilla characters as far as I am aware.
I have the popular mods installed, the fiend folio repentence plus epiphany mods installed, the QOL mods like EID and Boss Wave Indication, Synergy Mods, Mod Compatibility Hack, and such.

I would appreciate it if you can update the mod again because the last time the mod got updated was in 2021, two years ago from the time of this comment.

Can you elaborate at all? Hadn't played the game in a while but just starting it up now it still works on my end. Do you have any other mods installed? It modifies the character starting information, so if you're using any other mods that change character starting information those mods would probably get priority and only one character starting information mod can be active at one time.

It doesn't work sadly. Can you please update it when you are available or able to?

Using the TMTRAINER Progression Fix mod ( https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2492752673 ), plot-critical items will not be corrputed, and thus makes it possible to beat the Beast, Mother, or ??? on a TMTRAINER run.

Once upon a time, i dropped my cell phone on a porcelain mug. This caused the screen to shatter and have colors go spurting at random intervals. This mod is the equivalent of that. 10/10

Vanilla players been {real} quiet since this mod dropped.
