When using room mode calculators...

I've seen a few of room mode/node calculators and just been messing with one out of curiosity... but the thing is, they always seem to work on the presumption that your room is a perfect square/oblong box. My room is in a house thats been ripped to bits and rebuilt at least once when it was converted into flats and my mix room has part of the old stairwell intruding into the rear corner (basically my room is missing a corner where another room intrudes into it and its narrower at the back than it is at the center and the front) and a column where they've blocked off the fireplace towards the middle so its not a perfect square/oblong anyway.
The calculators ive seen thus far just ask for the width, height and length. How the hell does that apply to a room like mine where its wider/longer in some parts than it is in others?
 
Split the room up into perfect cuboids and calculate the modes for each. Then start thinking hard about which ones will matter most.

There is software to calculate that can calculate room modes for any shape but not free ones as far as i know.
