why does unity crash when putting prefab in hierarchy while in scene view
About a week ago unity just started crashing to the desktop. It only does this when I put a prefab of SOME particle systems into the hierarchy while the game is in scene view. Unity doesn't crash if i put the same prefab in the hierarchy when its in game view. The result is the same whether the game is running or not. The only thing i did different before the crash was download a water asset from the asset store. Unity crashes when I tried to use it so i thought i was a bad asset and deleted it, but now it seems to do it with any asset.
I have looked at the crash log and can see where the crash is, but I honestly have no idea how to read the log to figure out the problem. If anyone has any suggestions i would greatly try it.
