Starter.fps Help - cannot locate textures

UPDATE : PROMBLEM FIXED.
THANKS TO ALL WHO HELPED!
Hello,
After spending over a dozen hours, trying to find the starter.fps package wich was sopposed to come with the book "Torque For Teens" I discovered a patch or some sort, with the book. But even with the patch i cannot get the starter pack to work...I have done my research and looked through the forums and can not find an answer (many are if you own torque only)...
However, it looks like it cannot load some textures, but it or anybody else have not deleted them.
Please Help.
Thank You.

Did you look in those locations to see if they are there? They might be in the wrong place if they rearranged the directories.

I did indeed, they all seem to be ready to go, would/could be something with the main.cs and how i renamed it? I really a struggling with this promblem.bug.... Im a new user, but i feel like iv tried so many things, but theres got to be something im missing.Anyway, thanks for the response.

There are several assets that have their paths set in the scripts. Now you need to do a find in files in your scripts for starter.fps and make your scripts reflect the name change as well. Then you should be good to go.

It looks like you either did a copy paste of starter.fps into another directory and renamed it starter.zombieoutpost or just renamed starter.fps to starter.zombieoutpost. There are several assets that have their paths set in the scripts. Now you need to do a find in files in your scripts for starter.fps and make your scripts reflect the name change as well. Then you should be good to go.
