IT Life Update - 10/14/2020
- Hits: 368
I come to you today to show an update of the game I've been slowly working on. I realized that while I post updates to the youtube channel, I have not been coming back here to post. Here you go. This is just me doing a test of the customer spawning system and item spawning system. I setup some admin commands in the game to allow me to spawn items at will so I could verify the spawn triggers and the placement of objects. I plan on breaking all of my code and methods down into a tutorial soon but that will be later on once I comment all of my code and wrap up my features.
If you are interested in testing the game or seeing more updates, sign up and let me know! I know this place is pretty dead, aside from my WPF/UWP videos, but I'll post what viewers are interested in. Hope you enjoy the video. Check out the youtube channel too for other videos and projects I am working on.
Upload Script
- Hits: 826
While in the process of trying to add new features to the PST Portal, I came across a need for an upload script. I found a few that did the job quite easily, but thought I could make something more suited to my needs. Here it is.
It is not much to look at but it is able to upload pictures, create a unique page with a unique ID and even store it in a database with logs. It has been very helpful for my project and I hope it will be very helpful towards yours if you need it. All the code is pretty well commented so anything you need to change should be easy to find. Sign up to be able to download! Will throw a readme file in there as well.
Wiki On Wax

Hello All,
When I get bored, I tend to do random stuff. Things like walking through random areas or making music that doesn't make sense. This is one of those instances.
WikOnWax is a small project I started a few months back. It is bascially just me killing time while recording music and beats. Feel free to take a listen.

I Love Portals!
- Hits: 956
Hey there,
So, it may not be entirely known, but I love portals. Fake or real. The game or the objects in the game. Don't care. Portals are cool. They offer a lot and don't take much. That is why I've been on a mini-project-mission to get my very own portal up and going.
I have been using portal scripts and sites since I first started making sites. They've always been so easy to use. I wanted to bring that same concept over to my own portal. That is why I made a very simple portal that will allow you to post jobs, assign people to them, check on the status of them, check how long they've been worked on and have it emailed. It does more than that, but I'll just post a link and let you decide how you like it.
I am still working on getting more features in place to have it match up with the better known scripts out there but I will have the source code and database structure up for all to enjoy once it is completed. I have posted the link at the bottom of this article, so feel free to check it out. I also uploaded a few quick screen snips I have of it. I hope you like it. Leave you feedback below. I am thinking of writing one from scratch that can be easily deployed, so if this once gets a good amount of hits I might follow it up by posting a video of how it is made to help others learn too.
Anyway, thanks for checking in. Enjoy, have fun, and come back later for more!

Invoices For Sale! Haha
- Hits: 870
Howdy Ya'll,
So, I do some freelance programming whenever I am not stuck in a loop of normal life stuff. It is a very fun way to try to polish skills I think I have and learn new ones, but also to get an idea of what the current market looks like. You can't make useful software if you don't know what people need is a rule I live by, and freelance shows you the needs.
Anyway, I saw one request that a user put out to get a invoicing program made. Had to be simple. I am currently in a stage where I am testing out different invoice tools and figured this would be a chance for me to make something I'd love to use (BECAUSE I MADE IT!!! HAHA) and also have some code to store for future work.
The software is very simple. You enter customer data and save it, select from the list of different products or services, put the amount the customer purchased and send it off. It will be sent as an email to your email client on your local system. That is the version I am releasing. I will be releasing a video soon showing the latest version I am working on, which will send pages through my website to my clients for another web based project I am working on.
Enjoy it for now. Code is available for anyone who signs up (and signing up is FREE...... Soo.......) so go grab yours now and stay on the lookout for the tutorial to make your own that can send mail from your website!
Thanks for riding with us. Keeping checking in for more fun stuff.

In my newly-found share-everything way of thinking, I figured I'd put out this pattern I was playing with. I've been trying to make the switch from Reason to FL Studio for the simplicity of it and this is just a few minutes of play time. I will be releasing more each week, and you'll just have to go check out our Wiki On Wax YouTube to see what funky beats were too cool to not use.
I hope you enjoy it. It is short and doesn't have much depth to it but it does the job. I will start releasing my learning mixes to. They are great for a study session or reading a good book. Check back later!
Starting Fresh
- Hits: 735
I have been busy trying to make some new ideas and implement them out into the universe. I am going to start sharing them here as sort of a entrepreneurial progress journal. Hopefully this will serve as sort of a picture into my success, while I am working towards it. I welcome you to participate in this journey with me. Sign up, check the articles, play with the programs, have fun. I will be posting once a week to start but I'll throw in a few things I'm working on when it calls for it.
Check back soon.
Warren Buffett's Paper Wizard!
- Hits: 1117
Hello All,
I know it's been a while but actual life takes priority so now that it calmed down a little, I have time to focus on my projects. I am here today to write about a project from a long time friend of mine.
Warren Buffett's Paper Wizard. My buddy Bryson makes and works on amazing games and this is one of them. It is your chance to live like the Oracle of Omaha in the early days and toss your way into a fortune.
A huge cool fact about this game, it was the only game released officially by Apple in more than 10 freaking years! Apple has not released a game since Texas Hold'Em back in 2008 and I can't think of a better release to follow that up with this Paper Wizard. Not only do I get to relive my love for newspaper delivery games, but I get to learn about one of the smartest investors of our time and also have some fun. I strongly urge you all to go check this game out. You will not be dissapointed.
Shout out to Bryson and Sokay. You can check out more of his work on his site (Sokay.net), and his latest VR hit, Raybeem, on Steam. His site has a great slew of games to check and an impressive visual resume. He has been a mentor of mine for quite a while and I've always been impressed with his ideas and work so I know you'll love it. Give it a glance, sokay?
PST Math Helper
- Hits: 1205
I wanted to release a program I made for kids for learning their times-tables. The program is very simple. You put in a number into the box, you click GO and it shows you that number, up to 20x. This is pretty basic but it might be helpful for those wanting to learn. I didn't go in depth getting down to the bare minimum of code but it is still pretty low. It also saves all of the previous numbers you checked into a list on the left hand side and displays the current number on the right hand side.
I have also added the source code for this in case anyone wants to make changes or share it. This would be very easy to modify to go up to 100x or whatever you want to do with it and have fun. If you do modify it, feel free to send me the end result so I can post it on here.
Thanks to all of you who keep checking the site. I appreciate it. If you have anything you'd want to see, comment or send an email or go to the youtube channel and we will give it a shot.
Thanks again. Download links are below.

PST Transaction Log
- Hits: 1100
Hello All,
So today, I have a program that I just threw together as something for people to learn from. It is a transaction log program that lets you record your transactions into a database and shows you the totals. It requires an SQL database or database file to use but I am going to be releasing the tutorial on how to set this up.
If you are interested in learning more about CSharp (C#) or just want to grab the code, feel free to download the source files. The YouTube tutorial video on how to create this will be up soon. Make sure you subscribe for more content!
IP Buddy
- Hits: 1509
This program is IP Buddy. I've come across a need for this when going to locations to get an IP fast. Sure, IPConfig can do the same thing but this will save it in a nice little text file for you. It might come in handy for remote troubleshooting purposes as well for those that don't quite know how to use CMD but still want assistance. Hopefully some of you can find this help. Source code is simple but available to anyone who wants it.
To save your IP to a text file just check the Save checkbox and it will ask you where you want to save your file and what you want to name it. Simple as that.
Have fun and thanks for checking us out. Check back for more content.

Unity Game: IT Life Test Footage
- Hits: 2509
This is a project I've been playing around with. It is an IT game that is going to give players an idea of what it is like to work in the IT industry. From working at a computer store to building up your own data center, you will get to build your own empire.
Please note that this is far from completion and every thing you see is going to be changed out down the line but I wanted to share what I did have so far.
Copy Buddy Release
- Hits: 1239
Hello All,
Here is a program I call Copy Buddy. You select a file that you want to copy, add a location you would like to copy it to and even add a backup location if you would like. Click submit and the work is done. I made this out of pure laziness for not wanting to find a file location and copy to the new one when I download game mods. I just select the file I want to transfer, set the location that is usually listed in the description somewhere and now I can relax for 1.5 seconds more. I hope it can bring you the same amount of joy. I plan to add an XML function that can select all of the files you want and turn them into an XML file that can be saved and shared with friends, family, and co-workers to make those difficult moves of files.
Keep checking back for new programs, update to existing programs and updates to The IT Learning Game. Thanks for checking in. Have a good one.
IT Learning Game: Design Update
- Hits: 1202
Hello All,
I have a small update to share about the IT Learning Game. So far I am testing some of my main functions to ensure that they provide some valid gameplay to hold over during the slow periods of the game that I plan to have available. So far, so good! I have been having fun just testing out the pay system, testing the pay increases from adding servers and playing with the buying functions. I also decided to dive a little deeper into the 3d modeling side of things and came up with a bank model. The building itself has been created and is now just waiting for some fine-tuning for the doors and windows. Other than that, though, it is pretty nice and proportionate. I am thinking of making this the third client available in-game. I will see how it pans out though. Going to start on the AI soon so check back here often.
Ignore the graphics for the moment. Still working on trying to find some people that feel like spending their spare time helping a stranger with their dream. It works just about as good as it sounds in your head. None. I will keep the hunt going though so if you are interested, give us a shout here.
IT Learning Game: Design Change
- Hits: 1392
Hello All,
I wanted to post an update to my IT Learning Game project. I completely started over again and decided to give it a fresh start, level and effort wise. I must say, I am pretty impressed with the output. While it may not be visually stunning, it is what I have! I am not a big graphic artist or modeler so the next few screens to come will be the rough, unfinished screens of what I have in place while I work out the story line. So far the buying functions, placing functions, job functions and movement functions are working as I intended. My next step is to really dive into trying to make a story work. I have all of my notes ready to go so I am hoping I can get some good shots up by next week.
Gameplay wise, this thing has been pretty fun. Watching the functions all work together, seeing the progress after adding in equipment and having the expenses calculated are really making this seem like something. I've also pulled up my music production software again and had a go at that. Let's just say I plan on throwing my name in the credits everyhwere on this one! I have added some of the beats I have already made as some background music, threw in a few sounds for purchasing and placing and will gloss over the idea of giving it some narration depending on how these next few tests play out.
Again, thank you for checking this out. I hope to hear back from some of you for input. Catch you next time and stay tuned!
IT Learning Game: Pre Alpha Progression Photos
- Hits: 1039
Hello All,
I am here to share a bit of progress on my project. I have been working on this when I have the free time and really been spending a lot of time recreating the functions and GUI aspects of the project. I am trying to figure out the best method to use for the Help Desk GUI, as it does not quite work well without forcing the user into a cursor mode. I've also been trying to find out how I want the in-game progression to work. I am really learning a lot of different ways of looking at how a game can be fun and it is amazing to see how no matter whether we are playing Skyrim, The Sims or GTA, there is always an aspect to bring us back. I have been searching hard because I want this game to really immerse you in the experience.
So far the game progress allows you to earn money, collect servers, install servers and set the servers to different modes and collect more money for each server put to good use. My current goals are to get all of the servers in their locations and named so that I can start working on the rack monitor GUI. I also want the status monitor working because it will feed the pay system further by showing money earned per server, per mode and money spent powering the server. After I am able to complete that section I want to look into creating a hardware inspector mini-game that allows you to fix your own equipment if the skill allows. This should add a little more depth to the game and allow for thrifty players to quickly progress faster.
So far this thing is still a long way from being done but the progress is moving forward and that is always a positive thing. Keep checking back for more updates and if you want to help or test, give us a shout! Thanks again.
IT Learning Game: Pre-Alpha Stage
- Hits: 1074
Hello All,
I am here today to post up a quick picture of a passion project of mine. It is an IT Learning game that I can hopefully transform into something much better. The object of the game is to build up your computer network to eventually become your own boss of an IT company. You start out working in a data center trying to fill up your racks with servers. As you earn money from being at work you will be able to purchase servers, racks, switches, routers and much more. You will use all of these things to build up your data center to get a promotion to your own office and out of the fan-whirring nightmare. I am not going to go into great detail as I am still in the design and coding stage and do not quite have everything ready.
I invite you all to check back here often to check for new updates of progress, features, testing, and screenshots. If you would like to help test or even be a part of the design team, feel free to join and send me a message. I would love to get your feedback.
Thank you again for checking us out and catch you on the next one.
System Info Buddy Release
- Hits: 1096
Hello All,
So this is a very simple program. It displays your system info. That's it. It just shows you your system info. Might be helpful on systems without a mouse or maybe if you have to check these stats on multiple systems. Who knows? Anyway, here you go. Have fun!

Ping Buddy Release
- Hits: 1242
Hello All,
I wanted to release a small program that I made and thought might come in handy. It is called the Ping Buddy. It is a very simple, windows operating system based ping application that helps you find out if you have a connection somewhere without having to know the commands or open command prompt. It is very simple to use as well. All you have to do is download the file, unzip it and run it. Once you have it, you can take it anywhere or send it to anyone. The process is very simple as well.
Once run, you simply type in the address you are looking to ping and click "Ping IP Address". If the address is reachable, you will get a green status light on the right of the ping box. If it is not, you will see a red status light. If the address is not valid then you will get a yellow status light.
To add a bit of functionality to the program, you can select the checkbox on the left of the address box. This will allow you to get message boxes that tell you if your connection was successful, failed or invalid. This helps if you are attempting to ping multiple places and need a clear response or if you just want visual confirmation.
I hope that this program can be useful to some of you out there that just need to be able to check the status of a connection to another address. You can use this locally or over the internet. Please feel free to share with your friends and if you have any issues feel free to report them to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
