Unity 5: shadowing dynamic objects with lightmaps ?
If you modded Quake (1,2,3), you would probably remember that baking lightmaps also baked lighting into 3D lightgrid, which lit/shadowed dynamic objects. It wasn't perfect, but it was quite decent, au...
None that I have used. There are two approaches I usually take: either use select all -> duplicate repeatedly to build up a large selection, or add light probe groups to all of my static object prefabs with probes placed all around the object.
