hAMSter Model Editor Error Messages

Hi, sorry for the ambiguous topic but I have just started coding VHDL-AMS today.

Anyways, I am encountering the following errors while compiling and simulating my code which I am manually translating from SPICE to link with VHDL. Cool

Error : Cannot save/load file "C:\Program Files\Hamster\Lib\\ieee\electrical_systems_pack\electrical_systems.package_bin"
Error : Library "spice2vhd" not found

The first error is beyond me. I don't know what the compiler wants. My directory only goes to C:\Program Files\Hamster\LIB\ieee\ with no electrical_systems_pack directory in the installation.
The second one is confusing since in the LIB directory, I have added the SPICE2VHD file attached.
Though I am not sure if I have saved it correctly since it is two packages in one. Roll Eyes

If you happen to know how to assist, please do.

Ok, I found the problem, I was not loading the proper library.
The new error now is:

\QU2.vhd( 4,???) : Error : Library "spice2vhd" not found
\QU2.vhd( 11,ENTITY qu2) : Info : Entity/Package "qu2" overwritten
\QU2.vhd( 8,ENTITY qu2) : Error : Library "spice2vhd" not found
\QU2.vhd( 9,ENTITY qu2) : Error : Library "spice2vhd" not found
\QU2.vhd( 14,ENTITY qu2) : Error : Simulation object for entity qu2 not created because of 2 errors
\QU2.vhd(???,?] : Error 70015 : error with compiling Undecided

From the code:

library IEEE, SPICE2VHD;
use IEEE.ELECTRICAL_SYSTEMS.all;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;
use ieee.math_real.all;
use SPICE2VHD.SPICE_PARAMETERS.all;
use SPICE2VHD.SPICE_COMPONENTS.all;

Please assist.
Regards.

Even someone who has used Hamster before would only be guessing.
