jus wonderin what these are, i have a lot of them in the map folder (i.e. mymap.p1, mymap.p2 etc etc

pointfiles - they are generated by the compile.

I don't believe they're pointfiles, as they're not copied by Hammer at the end of compiling, but they're temporary files that are, well, worthless once it's compiled.

These little blighters are the information gathered from the last compile tool to use with the next compile tool.

So yes and no, they are point files but not as we know it Jim.

Some compiling programs are able to use these to selectively run a specific compiling tool.
If you want to change the settings in hlrad, you can pick up the vis compile .pt and you don't have to run vis again.
Bit pointless really

thanks peeps jus wonderin why i have loads of em
