Not sure what you mean.
The actual menu for texture stuff?
The display of textures in the file?
Animation ranges?
Texture sounds?

I think thats a bit confusing for a new trleer.

ewan, if you cant see the black bar as in the manual, then you need to enlarge your screen pixel size to 1024x768, do this by looking in your control panel for "display"
then go to settings, and move the bar over to 1024x768. If you can see the bar, just go to the "textures" menu and select load tga, as ROTC has mentioned. there are textures in the maps folders of each trlr level available, and in the extra textures folder has tgas from older tr games. if you need more help, feel free to ask

Yeah, I know what you're talking about. It happened to me too. If you extract the TRLE in a map other than C:\program files\core design\trle, the .TGA file you need doesn't load automatically. Just push 'texture' (top of your screen) and 'load tga'. Go to 'maps' then 'tut1' and click 'tut1text'. Et voila!

Let the gamebuilding begin! And welcome to one of the most addictive things you'll ever do!
