Hello Matteo,

do you want to do a rtl or post-layout simulation?

The last directory (which you use) is for post-layout simulation. Quartus writes the complete project (nios + custom hdl-files) into this directory. Because of the synthesis (built in into Quartus, or with a third party tool) the signal names can change.

When you just want to make a pre-layout simulation you can use the second directory (std_1s40_sim) and change the project setup by writing your own setup-file.

MfG

Chris
