Which version of quartus are you using? Needs to be 17.0.2.

Needs to be 17.0.x or for 19.x you have to regenerate the pll megafunction.
In addition compiling on 19.x is much slower than 17.0.x and there is no significant new functionality for our Cyclone 5 added in newer versions anyway.

word "significant" is redundant. It simply NO new features for Cyclone V since Quartus ~14.
Probably Quartus 15 would be ideal for MiSTer but in earlier version MiSTer used some Altera IPs greatly updated after Q16. In current MiSTer there is no such dependency, but for compatibility purpose Q17 is used.
