📋 About This Mod
Mod Description
Well another usage of genius and simple Vampire Lords Can Fly flying solution.
When player have any wings from the Animated Wings Ultimate ,will now be able to fly and won't take any fall damage.
Keep in mind it have it's pros and cons comparing to "Flying mod" version.
- No papyrus scripts on background (Better stability, performance)
- Actual Collisions with everything (Flying mod disable collisions so player can collide through wall etc)
- Much simpler approach (see "How to fly" section)
- NPC can't fly (For now)
- Mid air combat is not possible
- A bit crazy wings behaviour may occur(I need to learn how to edit behaviour files to fix it)
Install/uninstall any time no new game needed.
How to fly?
Just simply spam jump button to "fly" up.
Don't for "fly" down.
Requirements
Animated Wings Ultimate (Use version without Flying mod support)
Better Jumping SE (The only hard requirement - Load my mod after this)
Open Animation Replacer (For Flying animations) (no need to run behaviour engine)
Compatibility
This mod is created to be simple as it can be so there are no incompatibilities.
It override Better Jumping SE ini file with the same file as other " ... Can Fly (With Collisions)" mods do.
Compatible with all " ... Can Fly" mods as it use very same mechanics and perk to gain fly ability.

This Skyrim mod lets players with Animated Wings Ultimate fly by spamming the jump button, with actual collisions and no fall damage. It uses a simple approach without background scripts, offering better stability than the Flying Mod, but NPCs can't fly and mid-air combat isn't possible. Requires Better Jumping SE and Open Animation Replacer.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Performance-friendly with no background scripts (120 endorsements)
- Collisions work properly, so you won't clip through walls
- Easy to install and remove anytime, no new game needed
⚠️ Cons
- NPCs can't fly, so it's solo only
- No mid-air combat, limiting combat options
- Wings behavior can be a bit crazy, as the author notes
For Skyrim players who want to fly with wings and care about collision and performance. If you're okay with a simple jump-to-fly mechanic and don't need NPCs or combat in the air, this is a solid pick. Skip if you want full flying combat or NPC support.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Load this mod after Better Jumping SE in your mod manager to ensure the ini override works.
- Use the version of Animated Wings Ultimate without Flying mod support to avoid conflicts.
- Spam jump to fly up and hold the 'fly down' key (default is 'don't'? Actually, the description says 'Don't for fly down' – likely a typo, but test controls in-game).
