Yep! Are they any good though?
Personally, I found many good sounds in there.

There is a lot of goodness but not a great deal of instant gratification (as Sl23 has previously mentioned). I'm about half way through Pack-1 and have found/customized at least a hundred patches that I'm going going go have a blast further optimizing for my purposes.
If anyone is interested, I was able to save a great deal of time by changing all of the Semi= tone settings to 0 (rarely made anything sound better) and setting a midi controller to both Osc1&2 Detune (most were wildly detuned for my taste). Btw the command to change all of the Semi= tone settings looks something like this in shell:
for digit in -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
do
rpl -q -Rw -x'.h2p' Semi=$digit Semi=0 "$dir"
done
Do NOT attempt anything like this without a backup of "$dir".
Cheers

Yeah that's the thing, it's always taste dependant, but definitely likely there's room for improvement.
Ill take a look when I can and see if I can tone those settings down a bit. No pun intended!
I do find presets are just a starting place rather than the end goal anyway, so as they are may still be enough to get people interested and make them adjust to their own taste?

Are you still improving the conversion or you feel it's good as it gets?

Depends on feedback really! When I'd finished, I already noticed some obvious mismatches. Mainly envelopes didn't match, so I had to bring the levels down for hive so they matched more closely. There are most likely other parameters.
But due to the massive cost increase of github, I'll give it one more pass and that's it. Anyone can edit the source code and improve where needed, even create pull request to keep one central converter, rather than there being several different versions, which would make it confusing, but whatever... The code is there for anyone to abuse!
