Why does the F-Tile Triple-Speed Ethernet IP Design Example fail during simulation on Windows using ModelSim* in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 24.3?

Description

Due to a problem in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software version 24.3, the F-Tile Triple-Speed Ethernet (TSE) IP Design Example variant - “10/100/1000 Ethernet MAC Design Example with 1000BASE-X/SGMII 2xTBI PCS with F-Tile FGT Transceiver” - may fail during simulation on Windows platforms using ModelSim*.

This problem occurs because the simulation script generated for the design example contains incorrect backslash (“\”) usage, which is not compatible with Windows* path formatting requirements.

Resolution

There is no workaround to this problem in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 24.3.

This problem is scheduled to be fixed in a future release of the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software.
