Other than a skin (custom particles) i dont think so.
Maybe enable the little healed sign over peoples heads and try to make your medibeam invisible? might need to be in dx8 or something too, i forgot what caused that bug.
same thing happens to me and i can run the game perfectly fine.. its just the quickfix particle when ubered
feed a hamster to your hamster
it'll be as strong as 2 hamsters but only require 1 hamsters food
ApolloftwTry viewmodel_fov 0
Seriously? Why would viewmodels have anything to do with this.
Anyway
I had the same problem. setting mat_specular to 0 helped a lot for me.
So if you're using chris' fps confing, change it to 0. If not, put mat_specular 0 in your autoexec.
mat_specular 0 // Controls specularity. Setting this to 0 will make ubers
// non-shiny, and will remove some specular effects from in-game
// entities which support it. Setting this to 1 on dx8 will
// result in some strange `fire' textures replacing their
// appropriate counterparts, especially on medals, and certain
// hats.

Seriously, viewmodel_fov 0 gets rid of beams and flames.
the beam isnt the issue its the particle from when you uber with quickfix
milothe beam isnt the issue its the particle from when you uber with quickfix
Exactly. Plus, even if the beam was the issue, you might not see it when YOU uber, but when other people playing medic w/ QF use an uber around you, what good will that do then?
