The Doomsday Engine essentially provides a source port of the classic Build-engine games, which are Doom, Doom II, Heretic and Hexen.
It allows these old DOS games to utilize modern hardware to the fullest extent, and it allows for gamers to run them seamlessly on Windows/Linux/Mac operating systems.
Please note that, while there are are newer releases of Doomsday, I discovered sound issues with those versions after 2.0.3. So stick with v.2.0.3 for now until the problem is sorted out.
You can download the Doomsday Engine from the following website. Here's the link:

Also, bear in mind that you need the original game installed on your harddisk in order to run it through Doomsday. You can buy it through Steam or acquire it through "other" means - it's up to you.
The 3D models in the game were installed from the website's add-ons page. There is plenty of documentation available if you want to learn how to do it yourself. Here's the download link:

Look for the Hexen add-on called Hexen Community Compilation Pack (jXCCP). It's right at the bottom of the page.
