How would one go about displaying 3D text, positioned over the head of a Quake 2 model?

virtual ITextSceneNode* irr::scene::ISceneManager::addTextSceneNode(
  gui::IGUIFont *  font,  
  const wchar_t *  text,
  video::SColor  color = video::SColor(100, 255, 255, 255),
  ISceneNode *  parent = 0,
  const core::vector3df &  position = core::vector3df(0, 0, 0),
  s32  id = -1 
 )

The text node should be parented to the node .. position should be core::vector3df(0, 10, 0) or something like that.

maybe you want to use addBillboardTextSceneNode(...) !?!?!
