Ideas for working with doors that can open and close

Hi all
Enlighten is pretty neat but it only works dynamically for changing lights. I’m trying to think it there’s any way to fake dynamic light with doors at least.

For example, if there is only one door I could create two sets of baked GI (for door opened and closed) and interpolate between the two depending on the door’s state. I don’t know how to do that and it gets worse if I try to add more doors.

But anyway, I’m just thinking out loud. I might not even need dynamic GI though, the regular GI could be enough if I could incorporate different states for doors.

Just to make something clear: The idea is not to make something realistic. The math of fabric wrinkles is actually quite complicated. The idea is something simplified that creates a convincing pattern, for most common scenarios.
