Minions have several technical details that need to be considered when creating a replacement. 

• Some minions are classified as a terrestrial creatures and some are flying/floating creatures

• Minions can have unpredictable scaling, but are usually 1 to 1.

• Minions tend to have a small list of movement animations.

• Minions are generally the simplest creatures to edit.

A Minion replacement generally involves several basic parts

• Model replacement

• Skeleton replacement

• Binder replacement

• Idle Animation replacement

• Movement Animation replacement

• Special Animation, VFX, and SFX replacement

In addition to the basic parts of the replacement, there are often other factors to consider that are more advanced edits

• Scaling the model, skeleton, animations, and binders.

• Minions generally do not have attachment settings. So when replacing it with a creature that is supposed to wield a particular weapon, the weapon has to be located and manually attached and weighted to the skeleton to be added to the model.

• Some creatures, like Demi-humans, have multiple separate pieces that are combined by the game to give them variety. These parts have to be combined together to use as a replacement.
