I have made a fury coat which consists of several objects and some furry sections using particle system modifier. I have to join them to a single object. When I click join, the hair particles are going all over the place. But when I apply the modifiers I am loosing the hair particular.. I am not sure what to do, I just simply want to combine all the meshes, curves and modifiers as a single mesh. Any help will be greatly appreciated. BTW I am using Blend3.0 Zinga

$\begingroup$ Thanks - I made a coat using some meshes and curve objects. Currently I have four mesh objects namely buttons, cloths, furs and text. Everything works perfectly, but I want to export this as a single mesh object in an another file. Therefore, I wanted to join them but when I combine them hair particle modifier is getting applied on all the mesh objects. I just want to combine all the mesh objects and end up with a single mesh object. I hope this clarifies things. $\endgroup$– Zinga BabyJun 4, 2022 at 12:58

For each object, create a vertex group where the fur is supposed to be, make sure that you give a different name to each vertex group of each object:
For each object, choose the group in the Particle System panel > Vertex Groups > Density:
When you'll join all the objects, it will remove all the particle systems except the one of the last selected object, but you just need to create a new particle system, go into the dropdown menu, select the good particle system, then for each particle system go into Vertex Groups > Density select the good vertex group:
