I would prefer this dodgy solution to playing the Jedi Academy maps honesty, the other thing would be; even though there's dozens of retexture mods for KOTOR, please don't use one- I say this because I believe you should use the original look of the game as primary inspiration. But if you're a good enough artist I'm sure you could pull a Halo 2: Anniversary and make things look updated and slightly different whilst maintaining the feel and atmosphere of KOTOR. I wouldn't ask you to do KOTOR II as frankly an action- gamey style adaptation wouldn't do it justice- where as the plot of K1 is fairly straightforward good v.s evil, and there's really only ever two ways to approach a Quest in most cases.
