Converting N99 trkshot.pcx to N3 trkshot.tga

Hi,
     Can anyone give me some advice on converting trackshots so they appear
in N3?  Using the Atlanta trackshot as a guide, I used Photoshop 4.0 to
convert the .pcx to .tga, resized it to the correct size, 300 x 225, and
changed the mode from indexed color to RGB, and still they do not appear.  I
have not included the trackinfo.tga or attempted to convert the biglogos
yet.  Any sim-racing graphic gurus out there can help me?

they have to be a 16 bit tga file most graphic programs default to 24 bit. i
think you set it paint shop pro, but micrografix only supports 24 bit. i
don't know about photoshop.
