Modifiers in 3dsmax

[Mayur]

Ok I am trying to complete this one -

http://psychokillax.tripod.com/html/weaponmodeling.html

I am stuck in giving detail to the clip where you make a cylinder on the clip and substract it, I created a straight cylinder on the clip and now want to bend it

The tut mentions a modifier called FDD cyl I tried selecting the modifier and selected control points as mentioned

Now the problem is when I move the control points I can move only some lines or points around the cylinder but not bend the cylinger itself as I wanted

I am stuck here can anyone help?

Thanx,

Hmmm, you just need a bend modifier. Take the cylinder, click "bend" in the modifiers list (should be under mesh modifiers or somesuch) and then you will be able to change the ammount and direction of the bend - easy!
