3dsmax how to bend long items?

NAIMA

Hi I wanted to bend some cable sand stuff that are already still polygonal objects, without having to create a rig for them is there any tool that could allow me to deform and better shape them? I do not mean the lattice tools those have only x2 x3 or x4  I would like something like more adaptable ... Anything like that exhist? in Max? or scripts plugins?

Sorry I had to be more clear, the items I am trying to morph are already bended and morphed and I wanted to alter that .

FFD box mod allows you to customise the divisions.

Do you mean edit the cage? Is there not a FFD type with multiple , may be custom division?

if it is just an alteration maybe try moving it manually with soft selection, but it is easier with path deform still active then moving the splines on the path to suit for any significant changes

Yes, the FFD(Box) mod allows you to set a custom amount of points.
