Can't stand up during prologue?

[RandomSanity]

Once the dragon attacks, following character creation in the prologue, I'm unable to stand up from the chopping block. Thus I can't continue or do anything.

Anyone experience this problem and know how to fix it? I've tried starting 5 new games with and without mods, as well as verifying all my files.

Sounds like a mod is conflicting with the scripts. I had the same issue while using the mod minute for minute. You never know what will break what in these games honestly.

So all I can recommend is disabling mods until you figure out the culprit and only enable it after the prologue. If you are not using mods then I'm very confused.

are you using a controller or keyboard? any custom keybinds?
C is autorun by default, you could try that
theres a clean start save after all that nonsense on nexus if everything else fails you can try that and see if youre able to run around
or try the alternate start mod

Keyboard. No buttons do anything, I'm stuck staring at the burning tower with the dragon flying around.

Ok I lied, M opens the map but I can't stand up from the ground or move.

have you checked the options to make sure the keys are actually set? perhaps a broken mod removed your keybinds? (these things are carried over from save to save after all)

have you tried porting a save from the previous skyrim after helgen to see if you can move again?

You do realize that in the prologue, after Alduin roars and changed the sky, the player character is supposed to stand up automatically without any prompt from the player. If the player's character does not stand up automatically, it has nothing to do with key bindings at all. It is a conflicting mod. I think it may have something to do with the Open Cities mod honestly

Check your mods. I found out that the Realistic Death ragdoll mod glitches the beginning. You have to act8ivate it after you get up

Really? Do you think they have been waiting around for 1.5 years to solve that?

I didn't message that for the OP's sake, I messaged it for any person who stumbles across this post and has the same problem.

I am glad I was able to help. Nothing more frustrating that not being able to figure out an issue in a game.
