A word of caution here. The method described by svdl works fine as long as the lights (and shadow cameras) you saved with MinFig have diffrent internal names to the lights in the scene you are going to load them into. Unfortunatly this is rarely the case. So most of the time an extra step of editing the cr2 is necessary. After parenting the lights and saving MinFig with a new name, open the resulting cr2 in a text editor. Do a case sensitive Search and Replace these strings: "spotLight" with "MyspotLight" "SHADOW_CAM_LITE" with "MySHADOW_CAM_LITE" "LIGHT" with "MyLIGHT" Actually the new names can be anything you like. The important point is that no two lights or shadow cameras in the scene should have the same internal name/number.
