 Most notably, this error is caused by XIVAlexander, but can also happen with any other programs that auto-inject into FFXIV. It's basically clogging up the games executable and making it so Minion can't inject. Follow these steps if you want to continue to use XIVAlexander: Most notably, this error is caused by XIVAlexander, but can also happen with any other programs that auto-inject into FFXIV. It's basically clogging up the games executable and making it so Minion can't inject. Follow these steps if you want to continue to use XIVAlexander:
-  * You'll have to use an older version like 1.14.8.8: https://github.com/Soreepeong/XivAlexander/releases/tag/v1.14.8.8 +  * Open XIVAlexander's installer and make sure the program is uninstalled from your game directory. 
-  * Then download the newest version and copy these files to your v1.14.8.8 folder so that XIVAlexander is updated to support the newest game version: https://i.imgur.com/seFY1Uz.png +  * Install XIVAlexander as "dinput8.dll for directx11" or use the manual injection.
-  * Additionally, you can try to install the newer versions of XIVAlexander's auto-inject as "dinput8.dll for directx11" or even just use the manual injection mode, but this is not guaranteed to work forever.+

 +Minion works fine with ACT but the new injection method built into ACT called "Deucalion Injection Library" can potentially cause issues. If you're using this optional setting, then make sure Minion is properly attached to the game before opening ACT. You can turn off this setting in Plugins > FFXIV ACT Plugin > Inject and use Deucalion for network data.
