Xmas Animation

Hi all - I know it is a little early for xmas, but I am looking for an Amiga Christmas animation disk which I watched a few years ago. I am sure I found it on EAB but no luck in searching for it.

It had a house and smoke from chimney in winter and other Christmas scenes. It may have been early on in Amiga history e.g. 1986 or something.

Any ideas? Thanks

Are you sure it wasn't on the C64.

No probs. How about the Free Spirit Christmas Classics musical-animated-slideshow thingy from 1989?

P.S. It's never too early for Christmas. We have the rest of the year to be miserable.

Christmas is almost upon us, but I still cannot find this series of animations/pictures on a disk. Where can it be?

Difficult to say Octopus66

You know, there is a lot of stuff around for Amiga that you need a lifetime to check them all

I really know what i am saying, since i own more than 1.730.000 files

Surely, they will contains dupes and much more than dupes ..... but gems are hidden everywhere

But where ?

You can't know that actually

There are a few more potential candidates here that half fit the bill. At least the snowy scene featuring a cottage and chimney bit. Some from the late 80s, others early 90s.

There's an ADF on the Turran FTP called 'Christmas Fantasia' that may be relevant, but I can't get it to run. There's another one labelled simply 'Christmas disk 1'. This is the same thing, but requires a second disk to run and there's no sign of that one on the server so I'm stumped. I can't find it anywhere else on the web. Pfft.

Oh wait, it has to be run through Workbench, it's not self-booting. Made by Speech Systems (1986) so fits the criteria date-wise.

Are you sure it was Amiga, this one on the C64 sounds close.
