    Nice. Do you think it's possible to remove shadows that appear when something is on a platform directly above you?

    Could this be used to fix the infected shadows showing through walls sometimes?

    No, thats an engine bug, this plugin only modifies a few values on the global shadow entity. To fix the shadow through walls you would have to disable or hide every zombie/infected that is not directly visible to the player or some other method deeper in the game which I am unaware of.
