On the project page under D8 it says to set the cache dir in settings php:

$settings['filecache_paths']['default'] = '/var/cache/myproject/filecache';

Actually it should be as stated in the readme:
$settings['filecache']['directory']['default'] = '/var/cache/myproject/filecache';

Yes, For Drupal 8 the cache dir needs to be set as $settings['filecache']['directory']['default'] = '/var/cache/myproject/filecache' otherwise you get error: No path has been configured for the file system cache backend.
