Turning off the ranged hit indicators

[Will Greaves]

When I hit someone with a ranged attack, even if I don't see the hit (e.g. I ducked behind cover after loosing the arrow), a red crosshair briefly appears to signal the hit, along with a loud hit sound (the same volume, no matter how far away the target is). Is there any way to turn off these two hit indicators, which are giving me information which I realistically should not have? I have the aiming reticle turned off in the game options, but the red crosshair flash still happens.

And, while I'm at it, any way to get rid of the "psshhh" sound that occurs when I run out of arrows?

I'm also playing without the reticle for my javelins, as my preferred HUD in games is "nothing on the screen". Sadly I still did not find such an option to remove the hit markers, I'm interested wether there's possibly some simple edit to files, or wether there's an HUD mod available.
