i just checked mine, i compiled the dll last week off the latest SDK, ran it in HL 1.1.0.8 on a Voodoo3 OpenGl minidriver, and the egon beam was blue on mine... i've never seen a yellow egon beam. I do recall noticing an improvement on the egon beam, that is to say that the beam look better. i really haven't the slightest clue what's wring.
