Found this lying around, didn't have a purpose for it anymore, decided to release.

Firefight Portent
------------------------------------------------
By: Gamma927

Description: A Firefight map set in Portent that implements the pause menu as a "command bar"

About: This map is essentially a Firefight map with one catch: the pause menu is used
as an interface for purchasing equipment, weapons, and other things. You, the player, will
face multitudes of enemies, in set waves of varying difficulties.

Credits: Credits can be viewed ingame, but here's a list of the most prominent:

Gamma927 - Scripting + Map compilation + Tag tweaking
Jesse - Awesomeness + HUD + respecting my work back when it was still terrible
Bungie - The Halo 3 Beta models and textures used in the map
Elefant - Moral Support? haha
Mythril - Particles + Being awesome
IMBrokeRU - Awesomeness (lots of awesome people) + animations
Spartan 094 - Many, many shaders
Hayabusa - Animations
HDoan - Sniper Rifle animations + Bipeds
L283023 - Pause Menu
My neighbor - Bringing me up after you brought me down :]

Wondering why I'm releasing the map one year after I abandoned it?
a) Better late than never
b) I have no use for this anymore
c) So you guys stop bugging me
d) Inspired

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please note that this is an incomplete product. I have sent it out to several testers in the past couple of months to see whether or not this old thing still plays :P They are:

Yoko
Hr3shy
Kingnick220

and some other people that I don't remember :3

Anyway, they have informed me that level 10 seems a bit bugged. I've played it myself and encountered no problems, but they say that nothing happens after it completes. IN THE EVENT THAT THIS OCCURS, ensure that all the enemies are dead (check for sniper jackals in the vents). If it still fails, type in wake wave11.

Please note that the map is incomplete, and the last build was back in October. I no longer have the source for this level, so it's impossible for me to update it.

Have fun with this, I guess. It's not as good as I envisioned it to be, but as I no longer have the source for it, I'm releasing it as is.

Spartan 094 - Many, many shaders + providing the h3 models for the animators
So you credit him for the models, even though he just used a program that someone else wrote, and you don't even give Bungie credit for them also? That annoys me.

I'm sorry about that. It's been so long, so I don't really recall who did what. I'll revise the credits.
