Exporting image sequence (tga filetype)

Hello,

I'm using Apple® Motion 5.1 on Apple® OS X 10.9.1 Mavericks.

I can only export a project as image sequence with the following filetypes:

DPX Image
JPG Image
OpenEXR
Photoshop® File
PNG Image
TIFF File

How I can export the project as TGA filetype image sequence?

Thanks.

MacBook Pro (17-inch Late 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

This is correct, Targa is not an option for export from share in Motion. My first question would be, is TGA an absolute requirment or preference? PSD,TIFF or EXR should pretty much be equivelent and and just as well supported in any app that reads image sequences. If TGA is absolutely required, and you have Compressor, you can use Send To Compressor for share. Then add an image sequence preset. Inside compressor you can change the file format to TARGA.

If you don't have Compressor, and again, TGA is an absolute requirment. I'd recomend exporting to tiff and then using a third party app to convert to TGA.
