Star Wars Jedi Knight Outcast

So I was playing Quake 2 on the Dive earlier and wondered if there were any similar games that could be ported. I found out that someone had ported Jedi Knight Outcast to android how hard would it be to modify this for the Dive??

I don't know much about anything, but I think that Stefan had the source code for Quake 2 and he was able to modify it because of that. If the game was made in Unity, then as far as I know you just need to throw in a second camera and add the Dive plugin to control the camera. But I could be very wrong about that.

The source code is now freely available as OpenJk under a gpl, heres the story below from the Star wars Jedi Knight wiki page.

-------
Source-code release
Following Disney's decision to close LucasArts on April 3, 2013, the developers at Raven Software released the source code for the game on SourceForge under GNU GPLv2 licensing.[50] A few days after release, the source code disappeared from SourceForge without explanation. SourceForge later explained to media outlet Kotaku that Raven Software had requested its removal. Kotaku speculated this was due to the presence of licensed code, such as for the Bink Video format from Rad Game Tools, that was not intended to be made public.[51]

However, prior to the removal a fork called "OpenJK" was created on GitHub with the problematic code parts already excised.[51] The goal of the OpenJK community project is to "maintain and improve Jedi Academy + Jedi Outcast released by Raven Software."[52] This includes the unification of the Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy engines, maintaining the compatibility of previous releases, and providing source ports for Mac and Linux. Daily builds for Windows and early Linux builds are already available.
--------

I guess thats the reason both jedi knight outcast, jedi knight academy apeared on the android play store. As far as i remember Jedi Knight Outcast was based on the quake 3 engine which is now also gpl.

Im no programmer so wouldnt know where to start with this. But if there are any other developers reading maybe even Stefan, perhaps they would be kind enough to share how quake 2 was modfied for side by side and how possibly it could be applied to Jedi Knight outcast? ;)

I've got the game running on my S5 and it's tons of fun. VR support would be amazing.
