VCD for modeling vhdl via modelsim. AS?

This is the first time I'm trying to create a VCD and I am having problems.

I have a testbench called bench_minimips.vhdl that contains a sim_minimips object. I want to simulate it and get a VCD from it.

I type the following command in the Modelsim shell:

vsim work.sim_minimips
vcd file myvcd1.vcd
vcd add -file bench_minimips.vhd/*
run

but if I open myvcd1.vcd in an empty file. What should I do to create a dump?

I tried and also added the command to another forum:

wlf2vcd -o myvcd2.vcd vsim.wlf

but an error is generated.

I'm really lost in understanding because all the sites that I find tell you to use TCL generated by altera or some other company and I don't have the itr content you are looking at.

Does anyone know what I should do?

Best, Stefano
