I made a video driver for FUSION that uses the Aikiko for the CD-32/SX1 combo.  DEFINITELY worth the time to make the driver as the C2P is a lot faster than any 020/030 setup.

Did you ever make that publicly available? Would it also work with CD32/SX32 or was there something particular on the SX1 that tied it only to it?

Yes, this driver was included with FUSION.  It worked with the CD32 setup.  I used the SX1 with mine, but there is nothing required other than the CD32.

Is it still possible to buy / get Fusion anywhere? I have iFusion but not  the latest version of the regular Fusion. I have 3.1 from a cover disk but I know that there was at least version 3.2. If it's not possible to buy it anywhere now, do you have any idea if the cover disk version included the Akiko driver?

PS I'm really looking forward to the Vampire version you've mentioned on eab. It's great to see you developing the software again. My Emplant was great until lightning zapped it :(

The driver for the CD32 was originally released with Mac1200, which was the Mac emulation I did for the A1200.  So, FUSION definitely has the Akiko driver for it and that should be included with the cover disk.
