I don't know the name for the TGA format, but in my graphics software, I just create a mask using the background and save it in 24 bit format (I think it then becomes 32 bit because of the mask?) and it works properly. I use Corel Photopaint though which isn't very popular and you may have to do it differently in Photoshop. It is not like sprites though where the last colour in the palette is rendered transparent.
