yeah i ran into this a lot making the upgraded preg module.
The process ive worked out now, i have a folder where i save cards with their default outfits already setup for a single style I want, including the default style.
then in aa2edit I set up like this:
name new style named "blah" and in the bottom window select that style, and make sure ALL check boxes on the left are checked, then Load button right above bottom style window, select the card that had default clothing sets you want for that style, and make sure ALL check boxes on the left are checked
this will effectively load the whole character clothing onto the "blah" style. you then select the blah style in the Top window, and the Default style in the Bottom window, and click the Transfer style button. This will load the data into the default style.
I do this to ensure the default style is actually loaded with info properly (its often Not loaded with the aau data).
If I am going to add other styles to the card, I do the same process (load from a separate card onto the Blah slot) and Then transfer from the blah slot to the new style created (like pregnant1 or pregnant2 etc etc)
and then ill do the Default style last just to make sure.
swap around outfits on the right panel to make sure it worked (this will not work on males, males in the editor have no slot stage value so clothes dont show, which is a real pain in the ass. you can i think use the poser to look at clothes though )
I do this process because it helps keep things like overrides and redirects for each style separate as well (which is important for the pregnant style since you need to use a Redirect to make the naked outfit actually pregnant)
I also do this because i find it convenient to make a ton of outfit styles for a single character by loading a bunch of clones of that card into a single class file. then i can just change outfits in the game freely if i want (more complex once you start adding overrides though). and when im ready I just open QTedit and export the cards with the outfits for the styles i need to add to the "Real" card.
