Change Default Server Texture Mod?

I was told there is a new mod/plugin in development that turns your texture pack into a server texture pack. I know this sounds a lot like spout but that is not what i am looking for. I'm looking for a mod/plugin that doesn't require a client to do this.

Does this exist? Is this even possible?

 

Spout is the only way to do this. There are no other ways

 

I was told differently but i didn't think to ask the guy the name of the mod an he hasn't been around lately. And I'm sure spout isn't the only possible way to do this, not saying it exists yet but there must be a way to do it without the spout client.

Nothing against spout, just don't want people to NEED a client to play my server...with the texture i want.

 

You can change player skins without SpoutCraft, but it does require Spout (server).

You may have been told different, but you were told wrong. Believe me, I'd love to shove my own foot in my mouth and have a mod that would change texture packs server side only without Spout or SpoutCraft. Will never happen without a client side mod in MC's current state.

 

I would be happy to be wrong here, but I'm 99.9% sure I'm right.

 

So is it impossible to create a mod like this?

 

It's not possible. Not without a client side mod anyways.
