Quartus 16.0.0 no pof generated

I'm compiling code for a Cyclone IV using Quartus 16.0.0 and am finding that the pof file is not automatically generated during compilation. I get an sof, which I can convert to a pof using the "Convert Programming Files" utility, but this is a hassle. Older version of Quartus automatically create a pof. What gives?

I don't think it generates a POF unless the device supports it, but I'm not completely sure. The options are in Assignments > Device > Device and Pin Options > Programming Files
