In Putting a Targa sequence

[SirSpectre]

Hello again,

 

Im still new to the Targa rendering method. I cant seem to bring the targa sequence back in A:M to save it as something else. It either brings in one frame, or it tries to open Adobe Photoshop to show the frame. Could someone share the Targa secret?

Your TGA images will have to be in sequential order to import correctly.

For instance:

 

image001.tga

image002.tga

image003.tga

...

 

If you miss a number the import will assume the sequence is finished.

 

Helpful Tip: When you render out to TGA in A:M you may want to use a file name such as 'image000.tga' in the dialog box. A:M will see the 0s and know that you want the image names padded with 0s.

 

You don't have to use 3 zeros of course but thats what I almost always do.

 

If you just want to import the image or sequence then Right Click in the Project Workspace on the Image header and import your image there. You can also Right Click and choose 'Save As Animation' to quickly export out to other formats.
