Python errors on bake: "RuntimeError: Operator bpy.ops.object.convert.poll() failed, context is incorrect" about the_lightmapper HOT 6 OPEN

Hi, and thanks for using the addon!

That seems strange, although it could be that there's a bug in 3.2+ that I haven't caught. Does it work of you turn off "apply modifiers"? Also, your meshes aren't linked or multi-user by any chance?

Edit: Do you have the option to share the scene?

It seems to be failing on this step:

And I am able to bake on a simple model like a cube and plane, as in the wiki example.

I wonder if my model is improperly constructed in some way. It's quite complex, imported from another program:

Any advice on how to work with such models, or to convert them in some way? Cycles is able to render lights within Blender, i just get this error when baking.

Thank you for writing back so quickly! Turning off that option didn't help; same result.

Here is the file -- I tried it in Blender 3.0.1 and it runs without an error, although it seems to have some trouble that I can probably follow tutorials to work through:

Thank you again!

@jywarren Sorry about the late reply. Seems like my github replies went into the spam folder. - I testes the file and I couldn't quite reproduce the bug, but I was wondering if you turn on the verbose option in the settings, does it say anything in more detail when it crashes/produces the bug?:

By default it shouldn't be too much hassle to ligthmap and scene like that one with a bit of uv adjustment and denoising. One thing I did notice was that there's lot of backfacing normals, which means that the light won't reach the surfaces:

Select all the objects and going to Mesh > Normals > Recalculate Outside seems to fix a lot of them:
