Try the setUnitPos command. The modes are explained in that page.

Do you mean that setUnitPos will prevent the player to go prone?

[edit] da function doesnt seem 2 work in da area im usin... as da citscene starts on a stairs it keeps returnin -1

also around dat buildin it returns -1 if standin 0 if crouchin nd 1 if layin low 

[edit2] forget dat i got dat workin by strangle havi9n da boundingBox co-operate w/ mandobles function    

[Mandoble]

But that getpos function will tell you if the unit is not standing, but will not force it to keep standing

u know arma IS a strange tingy 

my cutscene uses anims 2 have da player run away... but it seems da anim starts 2 diffrent directions if da player is standin or crouchin... so i adjust his initial direction accordin 2 his stance (nd u cant crawl on stairs so dats not a prob )

I would forget about the player
That is, black out
create the camera, etc and move the player to an isolated island full of canibals
and place where the player was an AI unit with all AI disabled and do with this unit what you want after a BLACK in
Once finished
black out again, delete the AI unit and move the real player where the AI unit was
destroy the cutscene camera and black in again

i considered dat... but i got it workin like dat ill change if ny strange bugs appear tho...

btw can i get da players identity usin getidentity... nd den use setidentity on AI unit ?
