Walls not turning transparent in 41.51
I'm guessing that there are not that many that play PZ on a mac, but has anyone noticed with 41.51, that the walls are not turning transparent to see what's behind them? So things like furniture like sinks and small shelves that are positioned just so to be hidden behind walls become unusable and you can't see zombies to click on them properly too.

I'm running a macbook pro 2019 with Big Sur 11.3 w 16gb RAM. No external HD. 40.50 didn't have this issue.

I'll try it again with a new game to see if it still happens

Windows 10 here, sometimes the transparent wall system simply stops working, and then i need to reload the save for it to work again.

I run the game on mac too. I had the same problem. It went away after I switched back and forth few times between 50 and 51.

restarted my mac and started a new game and the problem auto resolved. Now just need to wait for the aggro zombie patch before I try again

Not sure if it's anything to do with the latest patches but the issue of walls not turning transparent is back. It seems random. I need to quit to desktop and restart the game a few times to get lucky when the walls turn transparent again

Can you try checking your Lightning options? Try changing them to "High" for example.

Lighting settings are already on high. Still appears to be random when the walls are transparent but they are not much more often than the are

I just ran the game and I am seeing the issue with 41.52. Walls remain very opaque for me no matter how many times I go into the game. I'm on macOS Big Sur 11.4

UPDATE: I went through all Lighting Quality settings and when I switched to Lowest, walls of the room I am in finally turned transparent again!
