Project Thunderdome?

What is the current status of Project Thunderdome, referenced here?

The link to the app was a dead end.

That application is no longer developed.

You can access the source code (provided without warranty) for 2024 version and earlier with the installer here: (Special thanks to @Markus.Koechl)

I attempted to migrate to the 2025 version, but encountered some errors after updating references. Hopefully, a 2025 version will be available soon.

@jzarczynski: Please carefully differentiate "Project Thunderdome" (retired with version 2020) from the "Vault Thunderdome Sample" code template, which was updated today to 2025. It is important to respect all restrictions listed on the release page and in the disclaimer!

I used to use the Plugin/Extension extensively (2011-2020, till I quit administrating that outdated Vault 2014) and was pleased to know it has a modern alive descendent.

But I seem to have couple issues with Thunderdome 2022.

I don't understand how to distribute the Extensions/Plugins.

Here is a "Create Deployment" window screenshot from video about Project Thunderdome 2013:

Here is an ?equivalent? "Manage Deployment" screenshot from Thunderdome 2022:

No "Plug-ins" node.

What I'm missing?

PS:
Another issue is installing to default folder "C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Vault 2022\Extensions\Autodesk.ThunderdomeSample\".

If accepted installer puts everything to disk root folder (C:\).
My workaround is to create the target folder manually (I used "C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Vault 2022\Extensions\ThunderdomeSample\") and set it with Browse.
