I tried to make an event logo for Nascar Legends by taking an original event logo and cutting the part from the championship schedule page that they used from the layout.dat. Then I pasted that over the words so I could use it for a template. But it wont show up in the game. What did I do wrong. I'm using Paint Shop Pro 7 and 8. Thanks Charlie [email hidden]
Its been a long time since I messed with them, but IIRC it has to be saved in a odd format. If its a tga file it needs to be a 16bit tga not a 24 bit version. Look at your file size compared to an original. They should be the same MadDAWG

Like MD said above, these sims wanted exact dimensions and certain bit depths within the targa format to work. As for compression, I am pretty sure it only works with "uncompressed" TGAs. If you haven't already tried it, set it to 16bit, no compression, and see if that works for ya.
