Once you reach the dark side you never truly recover. Think of it this way if you choke a tribal raider to death and watch them dying on the floor your not exactly going to become a jedi the next day. If there wen't consequences for using powers or being associated with one or the other it wouldn't be star wars :D

If you activate god mode you can manually change your alignment on the force tab.

I know it's been almost a year, but I just had this problem too and I figured out a solution. I hope it helps someone, who will look in this topic in the future.

You actually can, kind of, but it'll require you some file manipulations.
Go to `Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\294100\2263227169\1.3\Defs\AbilityDefs\PJ_ForcePowers_Light.xml` and replace all lines
to

It will change ALL force abilities to Dark Side abilities. Or you can do reverse, if you want.
I tried removing alignment requirements completely, but that didn't work.

This may come a bit late, but I managed to remove all alignment requirements. All you have to do is go on both the Light and Dark side files as you pointed out there and replace every instance of the following:


with:


Then do the same for the Dark side file (same as above, but it's scripted as "Dark" instead of "Light". The alignment shifts don't matter after that.
