Added an operator that bakes lightmaps using Cycles for all selected objects that have at least one material. It uses UV slot 1 for the lightmap and creates the slot if not present already. It also automatically creates the required MOZ_Lightmap nodes and wires them correctly. If a MOZ_Lightmap node is present, the addon assumes that the user has taken care of the correct setup and bakes directly.
Baking happens using the Cycles render engine. The created lightmaps are saved as .hdr to Blender's temporary directory, packed and then removed to keep the user's system clean.
The new operator can be found in the Object Properties Editor in a new Panel "Hubs Lightmap Baker"
