Can't perform simulation of IP file because no simulation model files were detected

I am facing this error "Error: Error: Can't perform simulation of IP file /home/phung/Documents/riffa/fpga/altera/de4/DE4Gen2x8If128/ip/PCIeGen2x8If128_core.v because no simulation model files were detected". However, from the screenshot below, I have included pciegen2x8if128_core.vo IP functional simulation model file as described in https://www.altera.com/en_us/pdfs/literature/hb/qts/qts-qps-5v3.pdf#page=16

(https://www.altera.com/en_us/pdfs/literature/hb/qts/qts-qps-5v3.pdf#page=16)

What else had I missed ?

    Your screenshot is too small to see anything. What exactly are you executing when you see the error?

    It seems like altera forum limits and crops my file size (therefore photo size) to save server disc space.

    I have uploaded the screenshot to https://i.imgur.com/mharvjq.png

    Just to say that I have included PCIeGen2x8If128_core.vo IP functional simulation model file, yet I am still getting the following error:
