Personally I prefer
MikScrollingBattleText to SCT but that's my preference.
As for UI elements (such as panels and such) I love LitePanels which brings to Litestats which is a plugin for litepanels which gives you stats like gold, armor durability, bag space and other things like that.
Bar mods I prefer Bartender but you can grab any old barmod they dont vary greatly imo.
Hope these help you some I believe all the addons I mentioned can be downloaded from here so take a look at em you might enjoy them.
