LibGDX - Couldn't load dependencies of FreetypeFont asset

Hi I'm currently stuck on trying to load a .ttf font, I'm getting a GdxRuntimeException with the message: Couldn't load dependencies of asset: coastershadowfont

FileHandleResolver resolver = new InternalFileHandleResolver();

assetManager.setLoader(FreeTypeFontGenerator.class, new FreeTypeFontGeneratorLoader(resolver));

assetManager.setLoader(BitmapFont.class, ".ttf", new FreetypeFontLoader(resolver));

FreetypeFontLoader.FreeTypeFontLoaderParameter params = new FreetypeFontLoader.FreeTypeFontLoaderParameter();

params.fontFileName = "fonts/coastershadow.ttf";
params.fontParameters.size = 30;

assetManager.load("coastershadowfont", BitmapFont.class, params);

try {
    assetManager.finishLoadingAssets();
} catch (Exception exception) {
    System.out.println(exception.toString());
}

Pass fileName with extension, when you call load(...) method on AssetManager. FileName should be anything with extension.

assetManager.load("coastershadowfont.ttf", BitmapFont.class, params); //Adds the given asset to the loading queue of the AssetManager.
assetManager.finishLoading();  // triggered to execute task

And get BitmapFont with fileName that you specified at loading time.

font= assetManager.get("coastershadowfont.ttf",BitmapFont.class);
