Input System : Character movemevnt and Jump

Question

Hello, I'm having a problem with the new input system with Unity. The Keyboard works just fine (animation and all) but when I try to use the Gamepad (Xbox 360 controller), the character moves, more like glides while in her idle animation but won't play her walk animation. And when I press the jump button she falls through the floor and just disappears from existence. I'll provide my code and some screenshots, please I seriously need help.

Gamepad Script:

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.InputSystem;
 
 public class Gamepad : MonoBehaviour
 {
     PlayerControls controls;
     Vector2 move;
 
      void Awake()
     {
         controls = new PlayerControls();
         controls.Gameplay.Jump.performed += ctx => Jump();
         controls.Gameplay.Move.performed += ctx => move = ctx.ReadValue<Vector2>();
         controls.Gameplay.Move.canceled += ctx => move = Vector2.zero;
     }
     void Jump()
     {
         transform.localPosition *= 5f;
     }
     void Update()
     {
         Vector2 m = new Vector2(move.x, move.y) * Time.deltaTime;
         transform.Translate(m, Space.World);
     }
     void OnEnable()
     {
         controls.Gameplay.Enable();
     }
 
      void OnDisable()
     {
         controls.Gameplay.Disable();
     }
 
 }

Player Movement Script:

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class PlayerController2D : MonoBehaviour
 {
   private bool isGrounded;
 
     [SerializeField]
     Transform groundCheck;
     [SerializeField]
     Transform groundCheckL;
     [SerializeField]
     Transform groundCheckR;
     Animator animator;
     Rigidbody2D r2D;
     SpriteRenderer spriteR;
     [SerializeField]
     public float runSpeed = 1.5f;
     [SerializeField]
     public float jumpSpeed =5;
 
     // Start is called before the first frame update
     void Start()
     {
         animator = GetComponent<Animator>();
         r2D = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
         spriteR = GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>();
     }
 
     void FixedUpdate()
     {
         if ((Physics2D.Linecast(transform.position, groundCheck.position, 1 << LayerMask.NameToLayer("Ground"))) ||
            (Physics2D.Linecast(transform.position, groundCheckL.position, 1 << LayerMask.NameToLayer("Ground")))||
           (Physics2D.Linecast(transform.position, groundCheckR.position, 1 << LayerMask.NameToLayer("Ground"))))
         {
             isGrounded = true;
         }
         else
         {
             isGrounded = false;
             animator.Play("Jump");
         }
         if(Input.GetKey("d")|| Input.GetKey("right"))
         {
             r2D.velocity = new Vector2(runSpeed, r2D.velocity.y);
             if(isGrounded)
             animator.Play("Walk");
             spriteR.flipX = true;
         }
         else if (Input.GetKey("a") || Input.GetKey("left"))
         {
             r2D.velocity = new Vector2(-runSpeed, r2D.velocity.y);
             if (isGrounded)
                 animator.Play("Walk");
             spriteR.flipX = false;
         }
         else
         {
             if (isGrounded)
                 animator.Play("Idle");
             r2D.velocity = new Vector2(0, r2D.velocity.y);
         }
         if (Input.GetKey("space")&& isGrounded)
         {
             r2D.velocity = new Vector2(r2D.velocity.x, jumpSpeed);
             animator.Play("Jump");
         }
     }
 }

Answer 1

This script should be able to handle movement and jumping with a gamepad; it's what I use for my 3D RPG. Keep in mind, I use Cinemachine's Freelook camera. If you don't use it it could mess up the way the movement script works.

If what I have here isn't enough information ,I suggest you check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HpC--2iowE

Ask me more questions if you need more specifics, and I might be able to help.

 public class ThirdPersonMovement : MonoBehaviour

     public float movementSpeed = 7f;
 
     Vector3 velocity;
     public float gravity = -25f;
     public float jumpHeight = 1.5f;
 
     public Transform groundCheck;
     public float groundDistance = 0.4f;

     bool isGrounded;
 
     public CharacterController controller;
     public Transform cam;
 
     public float turnSmoothTime = 0.07f;
     float turnSmoothVelocity;
 
     void Awake()
     //Controller input roles
     {
         controls = new PlayerControls();
 
         controls.Gameplay.Movement.performed += ctx => movement = ctx.ReadValue<Vector2>();
         controls.Gameplay.Movement.canceled += ctx => movement = Vector3.zero;

     }
 
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update()
     {

         if(isGrounded && velocity.y < 0)
         {
             velocity.y = -2f;
         }
 
         //Character Movement
         float horizontal = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
         float vertical = Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical");
         Vector3 direction = new Vector3(horizontal, 0f, vertical).normalized;
 
         //Character Rotation
         if (direction.magnitude >= 0.1f)
         {
             float targetAngle = Mathf.Atan2(direction.x, direction.z) * Mathf.Rad2Deg + cam.eulerAngles.y;
             float angle = Mathf.SmoothDampAngle(transform.eulerAngles.y, targetAngle, ref turnSmoothVelocity, turnSmoothTime);
             transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, angle, 0f);
 
             Vector3 moveDir = Quaternion.Euler(0f, targetAngle, 0f) * Vector3.forward;
             controller.Move(moveDir.normalized * movementSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
         }
 
         //Gravity
         velocity.y += gravity * Time.deltaTime;
         controller.Move(velocity * Time.deltaTime);
     }

    void Jump()
     {
         if (isGrounded)
         {
             velocity.y = Mathf.Sqrt(jumpHeight * -2f * gravity);
         }
     }
 
     void OnEnable()

     }
 
     void OnDisable()
     {
