When you specify max beam range via
$BeamInfo:
+Range:
there is visible fading at tip of the beam. Is it possible to turn this fading off?
-
What do you mean, off? As in, a sharp cutoff, or as in extending indefinitely but not doing damage? Or...
Anyway, I don't know, but I'd nearly forgotten about this feature, so it's nice to hear about it again.

they end somewhere before the maximum range by simply dimming away (losing alpha of the bitmap... until its complete gone) but still deals damage at the full range
like with some beams from TBP....
-
Trails fade out... how does it work for them?
(Note: The hard cut-off on AB trails looks horrible though...)

Wanderer told me on irc that fading of beam tip cannot be turned off, yet at least.

Note the bolded word. And it should have been quite obvious that I know what the feature does.
