Simple Flying Mod: theoretical solution based on two other mods

My Idea for a very simple solution for flying in skyrim:

 

A Patchfile, which makes the "Better-Jumping"-Mod dependant on Animated Dragon Wings.

 

Better Jumping: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/65044/?

Animated Dragon Wings: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/53271/?

 

Better Jumping Introduces Double Jump: Jumping while being in the Air.

 

For now I use this settings:

Jump Count: 3 (Can make two additional jumps while in air)

Jump height multiplier for second Jump: 0.5 (second and third jump are not as high, as the first)

 

So while normal playing I do not profit very much of the double-jump and I barely use it.

But then comes Animated Dragon Wings -> When activated they increase jump height.

Both Mods together allow a very big first jump and two additonal wing-beats, which still are quite high. Animations for additional flaps work.

 

The double jump can also be dependant on having a specific perk.

I tried connecting a perk to wings, which should get removed when wings are put away, but it didn't disable double-jump. (Maybe I did something wrong)

 

What I aim for:

- without wings (-> hidden wings) only normal single jumps

- infinite double jumps with wings (Jump height multiplier could stay at 1, I just use it to make it less usefull without wings)

-> This could also be combined with a mod, which introduces stamina-cost for jumping (maybe also dependant on hidden/shown wings) (-> http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/62501/?)

(or maybe magicka, dependant on which has the higher max-amount)

 

This way of flying feels very immersive, because the player has to actively flap his wings (with the option on stamina-managment). (In my opinion the frequency is quite right, demanding but not anoying)

Also this would be a compatible, easy-to-install and bugfree method with perfect collision etc.

 

Can someone figure out a solution?

Of course, for actual upload a permission from meh321 (better jumping, still active) and/or Anton0028 (Animated Dragon Wings, still active) would be necessary.

 

Ps:

I also combined it with the "Character Behaviors Enhanced Alpha 0.4" by Zartar for mid-air combat (shooting arrows while flying around!), but in my opinion it didn't work out good enough, was to hectic.

Still, it works. (Also Zartar states there are still bugs in his file, though for me the 0.4 without headtracking worked quite nice)
