Datablocks missing? Several errors

Hello everyone,

Hopefully someone can help me with this...

I'm running an indie-licensed version of Torque 1.5, and I've saved the contents of the GPGT CD to
C:\Torque\SDK\GPGT (inside this subfolder are the Appendices, Base, fscommand, GPGT LessonKit, etc. folders)

Just a few of several errors I'm getting, after starting the 3D Lesson mission:

---------------
from p.119: (I know this has been written about in the Errata, but a problem still exists)

I have followed the directions EXACTLY, many times. In the World Editor Inspector, I try to enter "myGuy" in the field next to the Apply button, but after I press Apply nothing seems to happen. When I deselect the player and select it again, the field next "Apply" is blank again. When I run the function bt16(); in the console everything works, but if I manually enter the script, I get the following:

after entering this:
$player_name = "myGuy"; $player_id=$player_name.getID(); echo($player_name.position); echo($player_name.getID() ); echo("myGuy".getID() ); echo(myGuy.getID() );

I get this:
(0): Unable to find object: 'myGuy' attempting to call function 'getId'

(0): Unable to find object: 'myGuy' attempting to call function 'getId'

(0): Unable to find object: 'myGuy' attempting to call function 'getId'

(0): Unable to find object: 'myGuy' attempting to call function 'getId'

------------------
from p.129:

after creating a new PhysicalZone (as given in the book), if I select the PhysicalZone while in World Editor Inspector, Torque crashes! I tried this in a few different missions inside Torque 1.5 example folder (demo, starter.fps...) -- all crash after selecting the PhysicalZone in World Editor Inspector!

------------------
from p. 130- after running the following in the console:

new StaticShape(TestTarget) {
position = "0 0 0";
rotation = "1 0 0 0";
scale = "1 1 1";
datablock = "SimpleTarget0";
};

I get this:

Object 'SimpleTarget0' is not a member of the 'GameBaseData' data block class
(0): Register object failed for object TestTarget of class StaticShape.

------------------
from p.131:

the 'shapeFile' field shows a path of "~/data/shapes/targets/simpletarget0.dts"

I can't find this anywhere. Maybe my CD was damaged or missing these files. Where can I find these? Are they in the included Torque Demo, but not in my version of TGE 1.5? I haven't installed the Demo as I already have a running version of the Engine.

------------------
from p.133:

after running bt18a();

I get the following:
Object 'SimpleTarget1' is not a member of the 'GameBaseData' data block class

-----------------

Help on ANY of these problems would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks.

best,
Zachary
