Chapter 8: FPS Demo: Building not showing up

I noticed that when I launched the FPS Demo for Chapter 8 that the building wasn't showing up. When I looked at the log, it was referencing files from a directory that didn't exist:
~/data/interiors/evil1/fairfax
I found that directory in CH3 in the 3DGPAI1 directory and copied it into the FPS demo directory and the building showed up.
Did anyone else have this issue?

The chapter was written early last summer, using the then current Torque release fps/data directory tree (I think it was 1.1), which included the fairfax directory (as did most of the other early chapters). When the book was wrapping up, there was new release of Torque, which I used to update the scripts and resources. That release doesn't have the fairfax directory, and I didn't notice its absence.
So yes, copying the fairfax directory from ch3 into the correct path is an workable fix for this.
