How can I playback a network capture through the same machine

I've been trying to get tcpreplay to work to replay a network capture I have on my system. re. Unfortunately, (from the FAQ):

Can I send packets on the same computer running tcpreplay?

Generally speaking no. When tcpreplay sends packets, it injects them between the TCP/IP stack of the system and the device driver of the network card. The result is the TCP/IP stack system running tcpreplay never sees the packets.

The FAQ proposes running a virtual machine, but I'd like to avoid that. Is there another tool that could allow me to send the info to the same machine?
