I have no idea on how possible such a mod would be, but would it be possible to make a flying mod? When I saw those graphics, I had this mad vision of flying around on something and exploring...
But flying, not no-clipping.
D'you think it's possible to do? Flying on a flying monster or something?
Because that would be heavenly, I think. Horses are all fine and good, but flying'd be just amazing.
Full Version: Flying mod
Yes it's possible but it would take modelling and programming knowledge to create
such a thing.
First you would need to model it and setup how the character interacts with it (can it be killed, how do the character model sits on it, do you want it to attack
other enemies. can the player get off it when it's in the air. Does it just stand there when your not riding it or does it walk or fly around and eat grass. Do enemies attack it or leave it alone. what noise it makes when it walks and/or flys or is under attack.
Then You'd have to program how to control the when its just walking/running,
how to take off, and how to control it in the air.
After all that you have got to make it fit in with the world somehow. So you would need to create books, make the npc's in the game talk about them. Create a place for them to be put in the city when you fast travel, or let them come into the city's
with you. Exploring... you would have to create citys and/or Flying fortresses. Then make sure the A.I arent able to walk out/or off of those places and fall to their doom if theyre not supposed to
. and finally add quests etc....
It would take some time to make....
such a thing.

It would be kl if someone modelled a flying unicorn with white wings, or a flying shadowmere with black wings (evil or good, whatever you want). That way you could fly around the landscape in joyful splendor.
Id love to see npc's randomly falling from the sky >.>.
Well I have playtested several different odd Ideas with the CS.
Just to see what happens... I added an ability to my character that gave him a 1000 point boost to his acrobatics skill and removed the jump height max limit in the settings.
Lets just say that you could easily leap across most of the continent.
The very first time I hit jump there were ALOT of graphical anomalies as LOD cells way off were all attempting to load at the same time.
After that first jump though I could bound way up into the skies pretty easily and see quite far.
Unfortunately though the cities really are just a few models sitting on the terrain with very low quality textures. This would be the biggest problem with flying is being able to see into the cities.
