Quake 2!
id distributes it free now under the GPL (?) license. It was such a good engine in its day; I just hope everyone is not so hung up on graphics nowadays that they can''t still see the beauty of the quake 2 engine.
You can download all the source and dev tools from id''s home page.

id never released the Quake 2 engine source code. They released the Quake 1 engine source. I dont know if they plan on releasing the Q2 source but the only Q2 source you can download is the game dll code, not the engine.

And there''s a damn lot thats been done with the Quake1 engine, putting it ahead in both features, eyecandy, and speed of other engines Ive seen around.
I always thought the q2 dll was the engine and the executable was the actual game. That''s how mods are done for this game I thought. I thought the gamer would modify the dll (the engine) so that the game performed differently
I might be wrong..

The Nebula Device is very cool. It''s a little lacking on documentation right now, but it''s getting better as people have starting writing tutorials and such.
