System Information
Operating system: Windows 11
Graphics card: Nvidia RTX 2060

Blender Version
Broken: 3.6.1
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

When I try to mirror hair particles Blender crashes. I've tried it multiple times and it happens every single time. Ive tried applying the mirror modifier I have on the character but it still crashes.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
I have a retopologized character. I make a particle system for eyebrows. I try to mirror the eyebrows by selecting all the particles, going to particles and selecting mirror and blender crashes.

Thanks for the report. Can confirm the crash.
Old particle system is near to EOL I guess. You can use new curve hair system.

Okay thank you. I’ve wanted to use the new hair system but I’m running into a problem there too. I’m not sure if I should start a new report but I don’t know whether it’s a bug or not and I can’t seem to find any resource about it on the internet except the general consensus that geo nodes are supposed to be less intensive than particle systems. But, in the same project, I make curve guides, and the second I add the “interpolate children” node from the asset browser Blender becomes so slow it’s unusable. I make sure that the multi res on the character is set to 0 but even then, I can’t use it. I have 32gb ram. I’m wondering if possibly I’m doing something wrong
