is there anyway to add some thickness on beem particles ? its like a plane now

2

No, you can add additional planes but you can’t make it volumetric.

3

could you tell me how do you fix this problem ? its not fix by increasing sheets amount.

This gave me issues as well before, beam particles can only be flat which works fine for beams that are far away, perpendicular to the camera vector, or really small. Larger ones are visibly flat and it looks pretty bad. If you want a 3D beam you could just use a mesh (spline mesh, especially), however depending on the situation that might not be feasible (also going to be more taxing on your hardware, I imagine).

use 2 beam particles and have the 2nd one be rotated by 90 degrees maybe? (so its like an X.

, actually i used beam for start fadein line from start to end point and its good because there is also speed control for that , i think it will be so hard to make this via spline mesh

unfortunately you cant rotate beem particle
