Ok, I went into LevelEdit and started tracing the engineer preset until after it took me back 6 or so presets to the preset with the projectile in. I found it was using this file:

blue_triple.dds

So if you edit that file you should be able to change the color of the engineers laser beam. You need to get a copy from the always.dat then edit it with or without the mip maps in Photoshop or Paintshop. Save as DXT1 (normall used for transparent textures) and that should work. I doubt it would be DXT5 so try DXT1 first and see if it works.

Try what I said because It will work as your re-skinning the laser.

There are laser settings in level edit for it, it's under the projectile settings. However it appears as XYZ instead of RGB (I don't think it's RGB though, some diff pattern). The skin, I think, edits the shape and color distrubution or strength for the beam.

You saved it wrong. Download this and unzip to your Renegade\Data directory. It does change the repair gun but not fully for some reason, maybe it has something to do with what Spirit said i'm not sure.
