Hi all
here are all my mods for V-Minion 1.1 (this is NOT mods from 1.0 to 1.1 )
original files are found here V-Minion 1.1 Alpha - Rat Rig Lab
these mods are from the 1.1 since i have had it for a while (helped develop it)
i don't have time to post all at once. so keep looking in here for more mods
it will be an ongoing process for me to post all of them
i will either have the files in here or a link to the mods elsewhere :-)
since some of them have been posted before the release of 1.1
