Like I said I haven't tried it myself so I don't know if it works, :S but what I understood from the post you're supposed to just extract all the files from that google drive into the main Ark folder, which looks like this for me;

There should be an option to disable blood overlay too somewhere in settings? Though be warned that while you dislike it it does tell you the health of your dino - easy to tell how close something is to dying by how bloody it is.

I don't know if it applies to the blood in your SS though. but hopefully just the splatter being gone helps a bit

Only thing I could suggest is maybe just don't harvest dinosaurs with tools, instead tame something like a raptor, rex, spino etc. and get your meat/hide that way. Once you get enough dinos, you have one for pretty much every job... And when you're on the back of a rex or other dinosaur the bloods a lot less in your face. Not to mention they are more efficient anyways at getting more of the material, and have more carry weight. I can't remember myself hand harvesting much at all.
At least keep axe/pick harvesting to a minimum; axe would just be a last resort if you find yourself without a dino.

Wait, have you been trying to disable the general blood option? I don't think there's currently a way to get rid of it entirely, but you CAN disable Blood Damage Overlay in the options. I believe this will general disable the bloodied look when you're attacking creature. Since how bloody the creature is, is a indication of their health. Again, I don't think there's any way to get rid of it all together without possibly crossing into mod territory.

In the five whole minutes I spent on my computer yesterday I noticed that Ark is launching dino-less servers. Maybe try that? Or as Lupen said just don't harvest them.

This game is REALLY pretty !
I got myself a beaver and Barynox. I really want a moose but after one tranq arrow they just shoot off like no tomorrow!
I got my Ptera bird killed today (stupid terror bird and T-Rex) so need another flyer

Once you get an argentavis taming some of the smaller dinos get really easy; can just build a pen out of window walls, pick them up with your argent (like the moose for example) and drop them in, then shoot them through the windows.
