I've seen that, why does it have a frames/sec input?

... well anway, I've been playing with a script to automatcally uvmap
one or more meshes [needs a lot of work], but it seems finding a way
to bake things like shadows is somewhat more of a problem

my current uvmapping script does sort of a cube unfold and puts all
texture regions on a single square texture

I hope to revise it to put regions onto textures up to a
[user-specified] maximum size, both letting me precisely control the
space between texture regions, and letting me control the size of
texture regions.

....

so, yeah, how should I bake lighting?
it turns out that you can't use envmaps because they will not line up
when applied back to the mesh...


oh, and your link:
