PC Files with the .pille extension

Hmm, Pille is the username of a prefab creator. Can you open them up with notepad and read anything? Where did you find them?
 
Ok, opened the file with Notepad++, inside:
\ 2 0 6 , 2 0 2 , 1 9 2 , 2 0 0 # 1 1 5 , 1 6 7 , 7 5 , 2 0 0 # 1 0 8 , 8 9 , 2 5 2 , 2 0 0 # 5 7 , 7 6 , 1 2 8 , 2 0 0 # (etc. etc.)
Maybe they are coordinates, maybe they were generated by your editor !!!
Mah ! 😐

Trovato in un Pois del 2023 chiamato "Army_01_Zyncosa", e non è l'unico.

I'm pretty sure that POI predates 2023, but whatever repackaged it might be from 2023. It wouldn't be the CompoPack as @Stallionsden knows he doesn't need that file anymore. My guess is that's from 2020 or before. I know that editor was history when I started making POIs in 2021.

From Darkness Falls PEP-POIExpansionPack alpha 21.1

Edit: Pille's editor was called Zombie64

That depends. This isn´t a DF exclusive POI. DF has PEP which includes POI´s from several creators, but they weren´t made for Darkness Falls. They can be found on their own. Khaine just made a pack for DF with existing POIs. This certain POI is also in compo pack from Stallionsden and you can get it on it´s own from the original creator.

So it depends on where OP got it.

These files, this extension, comes from Pille' POI Editor, which went out of support around A19-A20. Not needed anymore, no harm to delete. Just means you are using very old POI versions from either PEP or CompoPack, we all used Pille's editor back then to make global changes to POIs to stay current with Vanilla block updates, which has always been a big issue for any POI collection.

In this case the name tells you this one came out of an early version of PEP, which Khaine and I started in V1. Zyncosa is a modder/POI maker active around A17-A18, and is my personal all time favorite POI maker.

I discovered his work when I first started making maps at Ravenhearst and have always loved the uniqueness of his overall collection. I'm not sure if Compo Pack carried his POIs those years or no, I discovered them through the team at RH, and it took me years to track the entire collection down due to first the names being in German, then translated by several others, then split up, and now back together in PEP.

Zyncosa gave us permissions to edit and keep these current, and Ive kept his entire collection, (or at least what Ive found overall lol) current and included in the PEP set. The majority of these are parked in seperate folders in a non RWG xml state, as they are old and not up to par for use in RWG for a number of reasons. The plan is still to get them all remastered with new blocks and themes as I go. There are still some real hidden gems in the set.

No, they are not specific to Darkness Falls, you can get a newer copy of these from the V1 version of PEP on Nexus. I tend to keep PEP updates in step with DF updates, so no V2 at the moment but the V3 update will have a lot of new POIs including 150x tile lakes and swamps along with some new POIs and remastered older ones.
 
@Krunch
By any chance, and I hope the answer is yes, in this poi group does there happen to be
a Poi shaped like a "U" it is an apartment building with a courtyard in the middle?
A few stories tall. Kind of like 3 buildings merged together?

I remember I think it was Hal9000, had a block xml transposer at one timeto update from
alpha to alpha. Will that still work?

There are two command lines i run after updates that affect blocks, 'prefabupdater loadtable' then 'prefabupdater updateblocks'. You'll probably have a few stubborn entries where you still get missing blocks, the errors will give you an name or id usually, depending on what it actually is, i tend to swap the remaining blocks with air and just fix whatever, but that gets to be a hassle with larger POI sets.

I am not 100% sure but i think that´s also POI made by Zyncosa. Don´t know the name though.
