Lightmapped Props?

I have a prop I want to be lightmapped so it's not only either completely shaded or completely bright. What settings do I need to use to make this a reality?
See the attached picture to see what I've done so far.

I'm fairly certain that the "Additional game parameters" section is for launch options to use when launching the game after compiling, you'll probably need to swap to the expert compile tools and then add the compile options to VRAD there.

I figured it out. If you say:

No to Disable Vertex Lighting
No to Disable Self-Shadowing with Vertex Lighting
No to Ignore Surface Normal for computing Vertex Lighting
Yes to Generate (and use lightmaps) for this static prop

Then run a full compile with CompilePal, selecting -staticproplighting, -staticproppolys and possibly -textureshadows, it works!
