It's hard to tell whether you're using your terms correctly for your specific purpose here.

Perhaps it would be easier/simpler if you just explain what exactly it is you want to do with Photoshop?

Your making it tough, but its not your fault, does you 3d file have some sort of luminance channel of texture map? You need to be abl to define the drop to photoshop. I am not familiar with targa files as I dont use them. But I will look into it and post later.
