No Tails, Less Womanly, Weapons Close, Jumping, Few Ideas Options

[Fanible]

If these have been made before, guiding me to where I can download them would be greatly appreciated. Most of them are nitpicks with certain game designs that I would like changed.

1. No Tails Mod:
I don't know if I'm the only one, but I just really don't like the way the tails look on the Argonian and Khajiit races. I just feel like my male Khajiit has a hockey stick stuck to his butt. I guess the main factor is that I thought the tails wern't done life like enough. If they moved around more and just hung there like a real tail, it'd be ok. Even so, there could be a "More Life-Like Tails" mod, but I'm just going with something simple here, and requesting that someone make a mod that simply removes the tails all together so they just have butts like the rest of the races. I can't imagine it being that hard.

2. Less Womanly Mod:
This is just my own personal observation, but I feel like everyone in this game walks, and perhaps even runs, like a woman. I don't like my slick, cool dude of a character shaking his hips from side to side as he walks down the street. It just looks odd to me, despite the fact that everyone else is walking the same.

3. Weapons Closer Mod:
Another thing that bugs me is the weapons and items that you carry are hovering out to the side. This seems apparently done so that the largest sets of armor will still have the weapons be seen. However while it probably looks "alright" on bigger sets of armor, those who wear light armor and clothing like me, they just look silly floating out to my side. I was wondering if anyone could make a mod, perhaps slightly complicated, so depending on what item of clothing, armor or whatever, would determine where the items on your side or back are placed in accordance to your body. That way it'll actually look like my sheath or arrows are hooked to my body, and not hovering there.

4. Jumping More Fluidly Mod:
Another visual nitpick here. When you jump in this game, it looks very statue like and not very natural. Again, as I have a Khajiit character, jumping as high as I do would of looked so great with the right animation. However when I jump, like all other characters, I suddenly turn into a solid statue and don't move accordingly with anything I do. This type of mod would be more complicated to make I'd imagine. A more fluid jumping mod that made it look like your character actually jumps normally (or "cooly") when he's either running, walking or standing still.

All ideas, and like I said, I don't know if they've been thrown out there before, or already been made, but man would I really appreciate it if any of you talented mod makers out there could give any or all a whack.

P.S.
Oh yeah, figured I'd ask. Is there already a mod out that allows you to change your hair style while already in the middle of the game?

Actually I'd rather have a hairstyle that doesn't exist. I've seen some other Khajiit characters in the game with no hairstyle at all, and they just look like a regular tiger. Kinda sad they didn't give you that option.

Well, Rainer would like the Khajiit's to keep their Tails.

It is just...well...more Lore-accurate.

And removing the Tails would just seem out of place, so he thinks making them more life-like would be better.

The jumping mod might be possiable but it would require a LOT of new animations so i'm not sure if anyone would be willing to do it

If you don't like how you're character walks... Then RUN it has none of the same movements, plus running is better for your athletics.

It's just part of the role playing aspect. I don't like running in royalty areas or close quarters. I like feeling the moment.

Further more, their hips still shake a bit even when you run.

This kind of mod would have to alter the animations a little bit, because all the characters in the game have the same animation. So the mod would basicly just add a "Male Walk and Run", while all the females keep the standard animation.

I suppose, i've never actually walked a distance. In a noble's house I'm usually sneaking (for obvious reasons.)
