    hi,
    every time i close unity and open it up again the lightmaps are recomputed. in bigger scenes this is really annoying. am i missing a setting here?
    also.. i still cannot scroll through the lightmaps. i see a scrollbar, but it's not usable.

    Go to the lighting tab, and at the bottom, uncheck the box that says "auto".

    Have you done a manual build and let it go through to the end?

    aah.. this works. thank you!
    so "auto" doesn't save? on manual build i also have the snapshot-option. not on auto..
    still, no scrolling through the lighmaps. i only see the first 4.

    I think auto needs to do a quick update to show the light maps after launch.
