StoneTextures
by StoneCraft
StoneTextures is a Forge utility that installs the StoneCraft resource pack automatically, so players skip the extra loading screen on join.
What it does
When a player joins a modded server, the client normally has to load a forced resource pack first, which can stall on a long loading screen. StoneTextures installs the StoneCraft pack on its own, so that step does not add a loading screen at startup. The load-and-leave cycle on a server is the case the author highlights most. Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it. Builds exist for 1.16.5, 1.18.2 and 1.19.2, and the code is under the MIT License and open source.

What the author says
The problem comes when hosting modded Minecraft servers. Forcing a resourcepack on a modded client leads to a very long loading screen. To make things worse, this loading screen happens every time you join and leave the server. The problem should be clear by now so let's talk about what this mod actually does.
