Hammer,

If you use Modo you can use the pack UV command, which will take all those seperate UV tiles that span the whole UV space and "pack" them nicely so they all fit inside the UV space without overlapping. The pack command is also nice in that it sizes them to be proportionate to their actual space in 3D.

If you are wanting to paint your textures in Photoshop you might need to create new UV coordinates as the ones directly out of Moi are not laid out logically for painting. However if you are using a 3D painting tool this may not be an issue and the UV's straight out of Moi might suffice. I have been doing some tests painting some Moi surfaces inside Modo without re-doing the UV cooridnates and the results are suprrisingly good.
