Error while trying to simulate anything using modelsim altera containing altera megafunctions (altera_mf_ver).

# Error opening C:/build/swbuild/SJ/nightly/18.1std/625/l64/work/modelsim/eda/sim_lib/altera_mf.v

# Path name 'C:/build/swbuild/SJ/nightly/18.1std/625/l64/work/modelsim/eda/sim_lib/altera_mf.v' doesn't exist.

Quartus works fine and synthesisizes that but model sim on the other hand.

I do not have such folder in C:/

I can find the altera_mf.v in C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\modelsim_ase\altera\verilog\src

Maybe it has wrong directory by default? Tried installing on second computer and go the same result.

Thanks!

    Hi James,

    Can elaborate the steps?

    Try to to include below lines in simulation script and check.

    set path_to_quartus C:/intelFPGA_lite/18.1/quartus

    vlib altera_mf

    vmap altera_mf altera_mf

    vcom -work altera_mf -2002 -explicit $path_to_quartus/eda/sim_lib/altera_mf_components.vhd

    vcom -work altera_mf -2002 -explicit $path_to_quartus/eda/sim_lib/altera_mf.vhd

    Regards
