    Hi @grspbr,

    I don't think the problem is due to SPD are not generated. The SPD file is generated with quartus_ipgenerate command. Please find the attached file. You should see a common SPD file is generated for the whole qsys system called generic_flash_access in generic_flash_access folder and the device family is Agilex. However ip-setup-simulation command still fails (Error: No spd files are included in quartus project) even there is SPD file there. So this indicates Platform Designer folder structure of Agilex isn't supported for ip-setup-simulation as mentioned in KDB https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/articles/000086513.html. I think you can target that SPD file of the whole system to generate the setup script using ip-make-simscript command.

    Thanks,

    Best Regards,

    Sheng

Hi @ShengN_Intel

Right you are! I'm surprised I didn't check that with the "find" but you are correct that the files do exist. I'll use the ip-make-simscript command. Thank you for your help!

Best regards,

Greg
