Text Mesh problem. The letters are squares instead of letters

Unity Engine

I’ve been trying to create a Text Mesh that should write out a text. The thing is that I can create the text, but the text does not have any letters, just squares that resembles letters.

The text does have a font and all the things neccessary(I believe?) to be able to write out text. If I change my font back and fourth IN THE UNITY UI the text works. But since I want to create the text by only using code, that is a problem.1248980--53971--$textmeshprob2.png

Here is the code:
First I create the GO in a class and add TextScript.cs and feed with it some data. Then I create the text in TextScript.cs.

void CreateDamageText(Vector3 position, string text)
    {
        GameObject go = new GameObject("HitByPlayer:"+player+" DamageDone:"+text);
        go.AddComponent<TextScript>();
        TextScript tS = go.GetComponent<TextScript>();
        tS.text = text;
        tS.position = position;
    }

void Start () 
    {
        gameObject.AddComponent("TextMesh");
        gameObject.AddComponent("MeshRenderer");
        gameObject.transform.position = new Vector3(position.x, position.y + 1, position.z);
        gameObject.transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3(0, 0, 0);
        TextMesh textMesh = gameObject.GetComponent(typeof(TextMesh)) as TextMesh;
        textMesh.alignment = TextAlignment.Center;
        textMesh.anchor = TextAnchor.MiddleCenter;
        textMesh.fontSize = 128;
        textMesh.transform.localScale = new Vector3(0.05f, 0.05f, 0.05f);
        textMesh.text = text;
        textMesh.font = GameController.globalFont;
	}

What is wrong? It is driving me bonkers.

Thanks in advance

You need to assign a material that uses the correct texture.
