changelog for 0.5

[RA]

Is there a list somewhere of the features that have been added/fixed/removed between 0.4.x and 0.5.x ? It doesn't have to be an exhaustive list, but anything would be helpful.

Changelog

Additions/fixes for version 0.5

Report Tool, we've managed to fix a large number of the common

crashes.

your favorites and a list of servers you've played on recently (History).

use. Error messages are now more self explanatory and checks are added

to help users ensure their game is set up correctly.

MTA 0.5 users.
