Firstly, you need to determine what you want saving, e.g. :

- Character stats
- Progress through game
- Progress though current mission (aka the whole state)

Obviously, some of those things are harder than others, and you may have to edit the sourcecode to implement them.
For example, you could store game progress using only script, via storing the data in custom ScriptObject's and using exec() and object.write() to load and save the data.

Now, once you have a method to load/save savegame's, then you can start on the GUI.
Its relatively simple to design a GUI in torque's gui editor (accessed via pressing F11). You will likely need to add some custom script code to make the interface work as you desire.

Sorry i cannot be more specific, but i don't have the time to write a 10 page tutorial :)
