Hi, I'm programming 2 CycloneIII FPGAs (everything on PC, no HW), the 1st is simply a system of vhdl files interconnected each other, in the 2nd i've created a SOPC system as follows: ...

For the last simulation of Nios-SOPC I used Altera version 7.2. (We are actually switching to 9.1).

In 7.2. the _sim subdirectory contains a script which prepare modelsim simulation it's called setup_sim.do. (see the attached example)

I extended that script to compile my VHDL sources.

I don't know if there is a similar method in Altera version 9.1

But you can compile HDL sources manually in modelsim without using any script.
