I've had crashes like this when I made the packet area too big, and when
its too small. Try making PACKET GpuPacketArea[2][MAX_SPRITES*24];
bigger - you are sorting a clear screen command in here as well as the sprite.
Also I noticed that you've got OTTags as local in one
of your functions - try making it global - or static.


cheers
