Fullscreen Mode
Fullscreen Mode in Transformice is a method of running the game in a way that lets the player play using the full screen rather than an 800x600 windows space. Using fullscreen can be helpful in routing trolls out of hiding spaces, or for showing off. Since the official standalone now natively supports fullscreen, it has become much more widely used.
Many user-made maps are designed to give fullscreen mode users an advantage, by placing cheese or Mouseholes in areas that are not normally visible. A comprehensive guide to fullscreen can be found here.
Standalone Methods
There are many standalone methods available.
Official Standalone Version
The official standalone version made by Tigrounette. There is a version for both Windows and Mac OS, and has several features, such as a server loading screen, quick links, and a sidebar for the latest Twitter updates. Official thread + Download SWF Link: http://exe.transformice.com/VersionEXE.swf
Zoomed Loader File Links
The easiest way to get fullscreen mode is to access the game via these links, and can also be bookmarked for quicker access. This is not a "true" fullscreen, as it has the appearance of being zoomed in. There are Plugins for browsers and Userscripts available to enable true fullscreen, and they are listed underneath the server links.

- Other browsers: "Transformice Fullscreen" user script/js

Add-on Free Loader
Another method that is compatible with all operating systems, web browsers, and servers is the Cheeseformice loader which does not require installation of anything. It can be found here: http://cheese.formice.com/leaderboard/fullscreen
Flash Player
An easy way to achieve Fullscreen Mode is to simply download and run the loader .SWF (ChargeurTransformice.swf) from your computer and run it in a a flash client, such as Adobe Flash Player. The benefit to having the game run this way is that it is easy to choose a desired resolution.

Desktop Client by Gigabeetle.com
- Please note: This only works on Windows-based operating systems and will not work on MacOS or Linux as-is.
Transformice player CoryZ wrote a desktop client available to anyone running Windows. The project was started before the official desktop clients were published. When it was first released, users could easily switch servers using the drop-down at the bottom of the screen and could maximize the game to fit their screen. The latest version allows users to run multiple instances of the game in tabs. The background can be made transparent. Users can even turn on "Anti-AFK" to make sure they aren't kicked from the game while inactive. If changes are made to the client, it updates automatically.
