Pes4online started as a simple experiment in writting a game trainer from scratch. It envolved some basic win api functions, an ip input box and a button to enter the ip. Not very sophisticated, but it worked! Lucky for all you users, I had a nearly finished irc library, which was put on hold a few months before. It took just under 4 days to get the irc library finished, at which time a very early beta version of pes4online was released.

As some of you will know, pes4online started out very buggy. People were crashing left right and center. That's what you get when you release your product too fast! Thankfully the majority of the bugs were ironed out very promptly, with the help of the pes4 community. After that, well, I vanished from the face of the earth ;).

While the competition had time to catch-up, and while I was 'vanished', the pes4online userbase was growing bigger and bigger. It became apparent that pes4online needed some tender loving care. Thus version 2.0 was started. Alot of the version 2.0 code was based on the old version, but massive changes were made to the interface, challenging system and internal workings. Inspired by pes4launcher, and a much requested feature, celeborn and I set about designing a killer game reporter. It entailed alot more work than was first thought, but eventually we pulled it off.

So that is the end of the story, pretty boring :). To be continued...
