Intel FPGA Edition SIM ERROR vopt-14408

[TxLy123]

There comes an simulation error : #Error (suppressible): ( vopt -14408) Intel fpga Edition recommended capacity is 5000 non-oem instances. I want to know how to solve it and make my simulation running. I remember we can suppress this error to make it work, however , when I use this one vsim -suppress 14408, there is no change. when I use this command, the transcript shows: vsim -suppress 14408 # No design specified If you can tell me the solution, I will really thanks!

May I know which Quartus version and the Questa version that you are using?

I found from here that:

https://docplayer.net/219167054-Questa-intel-fpga-edition-quick-start.html

"This error is issued when the design capacity for Questa-Intel FPGA Edition simulator is exceeded. By default, the simulator does not preserve signals for waveform viewing.... Preserve signals explicitly by specifying vsim or vopt options, such as +acc. "

Not sure if this works for you. If the solution does not work, please help to share me the Quartus design .qar project file (Project> Achieve Project) so I can investigate on this issue.

I found there is a case duplicate here:

We do not recommend to have another case duplicate and recommend to close one of it.

As there is a duplicate case, I now transition this thread to community support. 

Thank you.
