Cool :) Glad you got what you wanted.

Okay, i worked on it this morning for a while. I did not assume any symmetry. The expression i came up with is verrrryyyy long ... I've attached a PDF of my attempt to verify if it's correct (i just used some 'typical' values). The entire elastic curve is given by v1+v2+v3, so just piece them...

This is a statically indeterminate beam. I wasn't sure how to derive the curve out for these beams so I looked it up - you can do it using Macaualy (discontinuous) functions + with super position of the redundant supports. You can look up these terms if you want to try deriving the elastic curve...
