id Tech 2
(Quake 2 engine)
Developed by id Software then licensed to other game companies.
In 2001 John Carmack released the source code under GNU GPL license.
The engine renders through OpenGL or software.
Uses DirectX 3 on Windows for sound.

The game engine is tied completely to the graphics, so with sufficiently low framerate (usually accomplished with console command that limits framerate) you can skip through objects. This was often used for cheating in multiplayer games.
