Would it be challenging to add the Multipoint head to the generator? I have been exporting the raw screw shapes and creating my own that way, but adding the head to the generator would be a great addition.

Just a heads up, in Blender 4.4.0 the add-on fails to install, complaining about Missing manifest from: C:\Users\USERNAME\Downloads\Multiboard Bolt Generator.zip in the logs. I've tried on both Windows and Linux and get the same result. Maybe some new requirement in the latest versions of Blender?

Getting the same issue , do you know of any fix ?

For anyone who had the same problem. Note that when downloading the bolt generator from Thangs , there is a top level zip file and buried within that there is another zip file MultiboardBolts 0.1.2 , I used that zip as the add on and it worked for me

Thank you so much. I sat here and restarted the app and went through every possible menu thinking I was missing something. This should really be updated in the video.

Got to say I'm not a happy camper. Just spent almost $100 for the upgraded membership to download the bolt generator. Does not install correctly in Blender 5.0. Using the 0.12 zip makes no difference, missing maintainer field. Anyone have a solution for this yet? I do see where Mule got it to work.

great generator! two humble requests:

Add the "locking bolt" thread size to this in addition to "big", "mid", and "small.
Add option to add coin slot for screwing in bolts to any bolt (headed and headless)

I signed up for membership for this generator specifically and downloaded blender to use it - followed instructions for download and adding the extension to blender and it doesn't work...
