I saw @phoebe-twiddleβs default for the maid outfitΒ and knew exactly what I wanted to do: matching defaults for afbodydressmaid and ambodymanmaid!
I got rid of the shorts on EAβs Kitchen&Bath pre-order outfit, extracted the pants fromΒ afbodydeliverypersonΒ /Β ambodydeliverypersonΒ and colored them brown. I also made the gloves yellow, but there is a version included with pink gloves as well (choose only one file!).Β My default contains two 1024x1024 textures, and both AF and AM share those textures. The shoes are my fixedΒ umbottomwillpantsΒ shoes from my pizza default.
This is my first time converting AF -> AM so the mesh is not perfect by any means, but itβs good enough for me. They both have fat morphs, of course! This was also my first time making a fat morph (AM) from scratch. I apologize, itβs not perfect either D-:
I did my best to reduce as much clipping as possible, but there are still some clipping during certain animations between the pants and shirt at the back. Thereβs also a slight (skin texture) seam/difference between the neck and body on AM. I was thinking of replacing the neck mesh with a βtrueβ AM-neck mesh, but then I was unsure of how I would add the apron mesh back onto it.
In other words; Iβm too tired/not sure how to solve these issues, but if anyone wants to try and fix them or know how I could fix them myself, please feel free to do so/let me know! :-D
My defaultβs polycount:
Included in the default is a simple texture default for the maid car, replacing EAβs pink maid logo with my new logo. I also cleaned up the registration sign and removed the shadow under the side mirror :-) the logo on the engine hood (is it really called hood in English?) has been replaced as well.
These are maid related mods I recommend downloading. They are not required for my defaults to work, though :-)

My default will not conflict with whattheskellβs maid completerΒ / male maid separatesΒ since @rudhiraβ was kind and threw together my default file the βrightβ way! Also worth mentioning, EA originally had three different colors for the male maid but my default does not.
All defaults seen in this post have been merged into one single file, and the files have been compressed to reduce file size. If you have any other defaults in your downloads folder forΒ afbodydressmaid, ambodymanmaid orΒ vehiclemaid-main_txtr you have to remove those before installing mine! And remember to choose between yellow or pink gloves :-) if you encounter any problems, let me know!
Edit: I separated the vehicle default for an anon, so if you donβt want to use my NPC outfit defaults but my car default download theΒ βvegankaktus_DEFAULTvehiclemaidβΒ fileΒ :-)
Edit #2: if you have theΒ βBuyable Work and NPC Clothesβ you will probably see my default with invisible pants. Delete the maid gzps from that file and all is good :-)
Edit 2021-09-11: I updated my vehicle default with the nicer bumper texture from my taxi defaults! here is a quick image showing the new texture:
both the separated car default and the merged file have been updated with my new texture :-) please re-download!
