The problem is that SOF file from version 12.1 no programs the Quartus Programmer 11.1. I need to update the firmware on the remote system, which is worth Programmer v11.1.

The sof file format was changed from version 12.0 to 12.1. 

I have the same problem: I need to read a sof file generated with quartus 12.1 in the quartus 9.1 programmer, but I get the error "sof file corrupted". 

I search for a possibility to convert a sof 12.1 to sof 12.0 or ealier.
