I could get rid of it with the rayshadow enabled. Have a nice evening or morning or whatever time is there :) Hi Jonathan,

It may be due to wireframe mode. Be sure you are turning XRay on for the new mesh, not the original one that you are retopoing. Have you been able to solve this yet? It may be due to wireframe mode.

I've been trying for an hour now and the XRAY and retopo thing doesn't work for me. The Geometry occludes new vertices, AND retopo does paint vertices where my cursor is, not on the surface. WHHYYYYY??? Help!

I spent a bit of time myself trying to figure it out. It is most likely due to the hole in the top of the pumpkin. If you fill that in it should go away. As for the subsurf, this is mostly personal preference. Some may find it easier to create a cleaner mesh with the subsurf off, but by having it on you cad add the sharpening edges from the beginning.
