Slick FAIL TO PARSE TILEMAP

I encountered another problem while learning to work with slick library.

I created a simple little map with 5x5 blocks with size 50x50 pixel. I tried everything but I still get the same error.

Here my class:

public class PlayState extends BasicGameState{

    int stateID = -1;

    private TiledMap map;


    public PlayState(int stateID){
        this.stateID = stateID;
    }

    @Override
    public void init(GameContainer gc, StateBasedGame sbg) throws SlickException {
    map = new TiledMap("src/resources/map.tmx","src/resources");
    }

    @Override
    public void render(GameContainer gc, StateBasedGame sbg, Graphics g) throws SlickException {
        map.render(0, 0);
    }

    @Override
    public void update(GameContainer gc, StateBasedGame sbg, int arg2) throws SlickException {

    }

    @Override
    public int getID() {
        return stateID;
    }

}

and here my error:

I just got this error myself - and solved it. You need to make sure your map properties layer format is set to Base64 (gzip compressed). Looks like that's the format slick expects.

As far as the PNG warnings, apparently slick doesn't like interlaced PNG files, so save as a non-interlaced image
