hey people, I don't know if anyone knows this mod for Quake 2, but I finally found it's last version files on a FTP server. It has all the stuff from Wolf3D, DooM, Quake 1 & 2.
They discontinued the project and deleted the files from PlanetQuake mirrors when the mod became popular and iD Software was about to sue them. I don't remember the full story, and it was before Q3 was released.

This is from Generations site:
Generations is a 'tribute to id software'. We combine the greatest shooters of all times (which were all made by id software) into 1 quake 2 mod. We currently have Quake 2 (duh) and Quake 1 classes at near perfect state. Doom and wolf are being modeled and setup as I type. All the physics (with the exception of the doom and wolf guys not being able to jump or crouch), Weapons, HUDs, etc. are being duplicated to offer you a fealing like you really are in the game of the your class. Some of the main features include...
Conversion of popular maps from Wolf, Doom, and Quake
New Player models (Doom and Quake, Female models to follow in a later release)
All the orignal weapons from Wolf, Doom, and Quake
VWEAP animations for the new player models and their own weapons
Different physic for the different classes
Orignal sounds from the games
New HUDs
Team scanner/Radio for Team games
Many gameplay modes
Many different modes of play are supported, depending on the server settings and the map lists.
Single player mode (fight Strogg with your plasma gun!)
Free for all Deathmatch
Class based Team Deathmatch
Red vs Blue Teams, with Wolf, Doom, Quake, and Quake2 players.
CTF
Pickup style CTF, Team games or Deathmatch (i.e spawn with all weapons/armor for your class)
