Is there a known good project i can use as a baseline for a PCIe project on a Cyclone 10GX development board?

I'm currently experimenting on the qts_pcie_sft project. The unzipped qts_pcie_sft project doesn't compile on 19.2. Error on Board Trace Model setting on some pins i can't identify. Couldn't find a...

    Apologies for delay

    We have to remove remove Board trace models.

    Please remove below lines from .qsf file and run full compilation.

    set_global_assignment -name OUTPUT_IO_TIMING_NEAR_END_VMEAS "HALF VCCIO" -rise

    set_global_assignment -name OUTPUT_IO_TIMING_NEAR_END_VMEAS "HALF VCCIO" -fall

    set_global_assignment -name OUTPUT_IO_TIMING_FAR_END_VMEAS "HALF SIGNAL SWING" -rise

    set_global_assignment -name OUTPUT_IO_TIMING_FAR_END_VMEAS "HALF SIGNAL SWING" -fall

    Checked with Quartus pro 19.1

    Regards

Reducing project directory tree to f:/qts_pcie... didn't help. 17.1 compilation still hangs while 19.2 compilation still results with these errors:

Error(329006): Some pins have illegal board trace models.

Error(20403): Global setting for OUTPUT_IO_TIMING_NEAR_END_VMEAS is not supported. Please use this setting with pin assignments.

Error(20403): Global setting for OUTPUT_IO_TIMING_FAR_END_VMEAS is not supported. Please use this setting with pin assignments.

...

How can i fix these fitting errors?

A fresh download of the Cyclone 10 GX development board collateral which contains the qts_pcie example project resulted in the same compilation issues. Is there an upgraded/fixed project?

In case it matters, i'm using a Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.
