v1495 Quartus II device library

Hello, I am trying to use the CAEN v1495 board in Quartus II 13.1 Web edition. I know that this board is not supported in version 13.1 so I need an earlier version of Quartus II. The Intel website does not allow downloads of this software for earlier versions than 13.1. Is there anywhere I can find ways to download earlier versions, like 10.1? Or is there any way to gain access to download earlier versions from Intel.

Thank you

    Best I can glean from a bit of googling is that the CAEN v1495 board series uses a Cyclone I EP1C20 series part.

    Quartus 13.0sp1 SUBSCRIPTION EDITION (paid) supports the Cyclone I series:

    https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/software-kit/711920/intel-quartus-ii-subscription-edition-design-software-version-13-0sp1-for-windows.html

    Unfortunately the Quartus 13.0sp1 Web (free) edition does not. It only supports Cyclone II and later.

    I have no idea if the Cyclone .qdz device files from the Subscription (paid) version will work with the Web (free) version of 13.0sp1

    I routinely use 13.0sp1 Web edition for MAX7K and MAX3K, and Cyclone II board support. But I have no Cyclone I devices.

    Maybe someone else knows if the .qdz file is usable. Or if you have to buy a license and use the paid version.
