Hey Asquires,
you can use this script http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/steamroller and it will unwrap and create light maps for all of your objects at once. It doesn't always make "the best" lightmaps ever but it does a pretty good job of it and it makes your process go 200% faster in my experience. If you use that it will also reduce the amount of softwares you are using to produce your work.
