and is there any other mods that are highly advised to install ?
Yes, why would not install them? I would say just stick with these if you're uncomfortable adding mods. Give these a try and see how it works out.
it's just that i don't want to install to many mods...
only the ones i need
I've been running SMF for years now and have never had to install either of those.
Make sure you're running the latest stable version of SMF (2.0.11).
