This mod is a big pack of XML patches that aim to integrate a number of neolithic-era mods with each other in a smooth and balanced manner.
Core aims:
[list]
[*] [b]Integration[/b]: where different mods add mechanics that seem like they should interact with each other, make it so
[*] [b]Consolidation[/b]: where multiple mods add different takes on the same concept, remove one or the other or merge them together to avoid duplicates
[*] [b]Balance[/b]: where multiple mods add related content (eg. apparel), one should not be outright mechanically better than the other such that there's no reason to ever make/use the less good option
[*] [b]Availability[/b]: items and mechanics that seem like they should be available at a neolithic tech level should not be gated behind non-neolithic requirements
[*] [b]Plausibility[/b]: mechanics should not break suspension of disbelief
[/list]

Most patches revolve around having Vanilla Factions Expanded - Tribals and/or Primitive Workbenches as a base, but none of the patched mods are required. I don't recommend running this mod with [i]none[/i] of the below mods, but theoretically it should work with any subset of the below.
In practice, I have not tested all possible combinations (that's a lot of combinations), so let me know if a combination does not work as expected.
All touched mods (some patches much larger than others):
