Quartus II V12: .sdo files not generated or in nonexistent folder...don't know which.

don't bet on quartus releases for gate-level support it is altera's new business strategy now. that's why i started studying other manufacturers. things that are getting chopped off with altera still exists with other manufacturers.lack of something may always be filled. but they lack things that altera has :)) so you have to decide what do you need what to loose and what to gain.problem with altera is that they think it's them or nothing. just as my zombified boss says "we have no other option! and will agree on anything that altera offers".altera does not listens to customers, it simply carries it's own business plan. no gate level simulation is a catastrophe! and to do functional simulation between CycloneV and HPS you need to buy external pack from mentor graphics. even if you try to simulate your project with CycloneIV, it won't work because Logic element architecture in Cyclone V is totally different.we are silent on too many things.what happens with altera is our fault. because we will swallow anything they throw at us.
