3dsmax 2017 path deform not working

NAIMA

Hi I have made a little item in editable poly , I wanted to align the item along a path , SO when I add path deform and click the path , the item seems to clone another pat offsetted and apply the item to that instead , why this?

the path was already sreset formed and is ok .

Here is the image, as you seee once I select the item and align it to the patch with path deform a new path is created and offsetted and the item gets applied on that .

Here is the file in case someone wants to look closely and help me  please?

Ok I used WPS version and seems to apply on the right shap e, but I still have a problem of misalignment , I want to make all the holes face toward the inside , but instead on some sides of the path they are turned and not aligned correctly , how can I do to make all align where I want wich is toward the center of the shape?

this is getting me crazy , everytime I do assign the patch deform binding wsm it always offsets the item . No matters if I resetted Xform or I have edited the working pivot to be right at the start of the side of the array , it always friggin moves it from a side ... why?
