Hi !

For auto updater in Intersect follow this step for classic :

1. Create update via editor => Tools => Package Update
2. Select folder for  this and futur update
3. Upload all files in the folder on your web host 
4. Only once in your config.json of client in updateUrl set "https://yourwebsite.com/updateFolder/update.json"
5. Launch your game and update is normally downloaded

For auto update In Intersect with auto json generated without editor needed :
 

1. Upload your entire game in your webhost
2. Only once in your config.json set "https://yourwebsite.com/updateFolder/update.php"
3. Download this file https://www.ascensiongamedev.com/resources/filehost/1c6fa0679887918ed6d54b6609afd1ca.zip
4. Download this file https://www.ascensiongamedev.com/resources/filehost/972d4c5a35cc8a7c4930029b41b30360.zip
5. Upload stream.php and update.php in your update folder in your web host

While using the second method, my folder doesn't have "update" folder inside it, since it's the raw game client and editor folder itself. Where should I put update.php then?

You need put update.php in same folder of your resources folder and Game client and link this folder in the updateUrl !

I wanted to contribute to this, that this can also be done in another simpler and free way without the need for hosting, just download Xamp, start apache, and put the folder of the recent update in explore / htdocs, and now just put In update url your no-ip followed by updater/update.json:8080, and it would be ready, yes, you must have xamp and apache active for this to work.
