One last question,
If I install a mod on phpBB2, and then do another convert, will the mod(s) need to be reinstalled?

The instructions are incorrect. The common_ucs files are included with the SMF 1.1.1 convertor.

I will not leave you to suffer the fate of having to use SMF forever. Try to have patience.

The files are in there. Unzip the files and upload to your phpBB2 root directory maintaining the directory structure and it should work. The address you need to type in after you have uploaded the files is http://{address_to_your_phpbb_forum}/convert/index.php. Replace the part in red with your information.

Alright, so I have an active SMF 1.1.4 installation which I'd like to convert to phpbb2, which will be converted to phpbb3.
Anyway, I've uploaded the converter's files to the right place, and did the login mod...
When I try to convert, I have this error:
No tables found. Please check your table prefix and try again.
My table is there. The forum is active and working, and the prefix is smf_ (the default).
Help?

kingofdevils, that doesn't matter. Just extract everything into the main folder.
I still need help with my problem (above), by the way.

kingofdevils,
The files you have listed are the common UCS files along with the specific file to convert SMF. You only need to upload those files and run the convertor.
-SainT-,
The SMF tables have to be in the same database as the phpBB tables.

Vicfred,
The SMF tables have to be in the same database as the phpBB2 tables. If you are unsure about the table prefix, you can check the tbles with phpMyAdmin or look in the SMF Settings.php file for the prefix.
