How to implement PCIE hard IP for Cyclone IV GX

Hi,
I am currently working with a Cyclone IV GX FPGA: EP4CGX75CF23C7. I would like to run a PCI transceiver and map the memory (on-chip memory) to the endpoint using 1 data lane. What do I need for this in quartus II 23.1 or 24.1? I see IP_Compiler for PCI Express but I cannot find any compatible instructions on how to use it.
Thanks.

    I believe the last version of Quartus II that supports PCIe Hard IP on the Cyclone 4-GX family is V18.1.
    I couldn't get later versions to find the IP or allow the Compiler to work.
    Hope this helps.

    Tink!

    Hi FVM,


    Thanks for your help in the community question.


    Hi PiotrWo,


    I believe your queries about unable to find instruction to use IP compiler had been address by our community expert.

    Is there anything else you think we could help you ?
