when i unwrap my model, its a room, i get overlapping. in the 2d view where it shows the unwraped faces, when i click an unwraped section i can move it. If I was to move all the overlapped bits out of eachothers way, could I still export the uv map and use it to texture the model?

Sure. That is the whole point of UV mapping, to tweak the texture coordinates to eliminate overlaps.

phew, thx jhocking. I looked through the docs and on the website but couldnt find any info on it so i assumed it couldnt be done. also i may not have looked as deeply as others would.
