Hi Kimberley,

--- Quote Start ---

I'm trying to compile the design. And in the past I never had trouble in adding my sopc file to a quartus project. I looked at your synthese scripts but didn't use them.

I get two error messages on the bfm_master and the jtag_master.

Error: Node instance "bfm_master" instantiates undefined entity "altera_avalon_mm_master_bfm"

Error: Node instance "jtag_master" instantiates undefined entity "altera_jtag_avalon_master"

I'm wondering if a specific file needs to be added to my project?

These files are listed in the .qip file. You should be able to use "Project->Add/remove files in project" to add the .qip file to the project. Try synthesizing the project after you've added the .qip.

If you still cannot get it to work, try running my synthesis script and see if that builds correctly. If it does not, let me know, and I'll install version 10.1 and see if I can figure it out.

Cheers,

Dave
