Converting D&D Modules to TFT...

I actually have this same project in my queue, although my goal is bit more ambitious... I'm working to convert the Shadowed Keep on the Borderlands 3rd-party adventure for 5e (it's a more modern take on B2).

I saw the OSM book, and I believe that has counters. Do you know which monsters it has in it? Do they redo goblins, for example, or are there just monsters that aren't included in TFT?

I didn't realize the Companion had conversion rules in it. Thanks!

Another thing I've been musing about concerning conversions is the mapping. I thought of just replacing the square grid with an underlying layer of hexes in Photoshop rather than rebuilding everything, but not sure whether to go with each hex = 1 MH, or sticking to the smaller 1:1 scale. A lot of the rooms in the Caves aren't really much more than a MH in size.
