    Lighting in Kotor is actually done through baked-in lightmaps which have had some improvements via Canderis' Darker Peragus mod. https://deadlystream.com/files/file/32-a-darker-peragus/ and my own slightly altered interpretation. https://deadlystream.com/files/file/722-a-darker-peragus-redux/ Basically, anyone can edit them with Photoshop, albeit through a fairly laborious process. There are some examples of what I've been able to accomplish with the Telos Restoration Zone on this site, but basically the only way to fix the lighting is by recoloring the Lightmaps that shipped with the game or rebaking them if one was so inclined. Regarding texture work, there are at least hundreds though probably thousands of texture improvements floating around in the Download section that fix a lot of the worst offenders be it the weapons or the clothing. Specifically for environments, Kexikus has taken the helm of remaking all of the Skyboxes for both games with his continuing High Quality Skyboxes mod https://deadlystream.com/files/file/723-high-quality-skyboxes/ ; Kexikus also improved the Backdrops for scenes like the Ravager attack https://deadlystream.com/files/file/949-tsl-backdrop-improvements/, SithSpecter already spruced up every weapon model with the High Quality Blasters mod. https://deadlystream.com/files/file/861-high-quality-blasters/ , Sith Holocron has done tons of animated improvements to the signage https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1350-replacement-onderon-iziz-cantina-sign/ https://deadlystream.com/files/file/308-citadel-station-signage/ https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1129-animated-cantina-sign-for-kotor-1/ and other miscellania like the lightning on Malachor, https://deadlystream.com/files/file/298-replacement-texture-for-lightning-on-malachor-v/ , and the Peragus Starfield has been massively improved by, well Improved Peragus Asteroid Fields by Vasilii Zaytsev https://deadlystream.com/files/file/321-improved-peragus-asteroid-fields/. (You also already mentioned Jorak, so you are already familiar with his phenomenal work on the area textures) For characters, you'd have to dive a bit deeper since reskins are more or less the most popular mod type in existence, but my personal favorites are 2K T3M4, Visas Marr, and Darth Nihilis by Darth Sapiens https://deadlystream.com/files/file/514-darth-sapiens-presents-t3m4-hd-2k/ https://deadlystream.com/files/file/519-darth-sapiens-presents-hd-2k-visas-marr/ https://deadlystream.com/files/file/367-darth-sapiens-presents-hd-darth-nihilus/, (I don't personally use a lot of character texture mods, but everyone please let me know which ones I missed as there are many on this site) //As an aside, we really could benefit from a way to find every mod by an Author from their profile page...
