Troubleshooting Minion on MAC:
-If Minion won't start because of any security warning:
After you install minion from the dmg the first time loading you have to right click the icon in applications and choose open, then you should be able to open it. After that you can just click the icon like normal.

-If your Minion is starting but shows an empty directory selection popup: Check if you use any drive with a special character like ' and remove it:
1. Open Finder
2. Navigate to Go --> Go to Folder
3. Enter /Volumes/
4. Here you will see all the volumes that you have on your Mac. If you have Time Machine, you may see folders with names such as "Joe's Backups".
5. Remove the apostrophe in the name (maybe also removes spaces)
6.

Alternatively you can use Minion Java version:

Minion by JAVA
If you cannot get the Minion exe (Windows) or dmg (Mac) executable to work you could also install the Java JRE from Sun (Mac/windows/Linux: https://www.java.com/en/download/hel...ptions_de.html)
and download Mionion's Java file (https://www.minion.gg/?download -> Java) and extract it to your documents folder.
Afterwards
run this command
java -jar ~/Documents/Minion3.0.11-java/Minion-jfx.jar
(where ~/Documents/Minion3.01-java is the path where you have extracted the Minion Java files to. On Windows this would be e.g. c:\users\yourWindowsUserName\documents\...)
to execute the base Java jar file of Minion, instead of the executable wrapper around it.
