Wall to fallow contour of a Mesh?

[Anonymous]

Hi,
Is there any way when placing a wall on a Mesh it fallows the contour of it?
Thanks,

Draw a connected series of walls with a height and base elevation
such that they will be as tall as the highest height you will need
and the base as low as you need. Select the mesh and invoke
the mesh to roof add-on. Elevate the resulting assembly of roofs
so that the underside is at the elevation of the height you
want for the tops of your walls. Select all your walls and trim top to roof.
De-elevate the roofs to an elevation where you want the base
of your walls and trim base to roof. Delete the roofs.

Not directly.

You could do a Solid Element Operation to cut the walls off below the mesh.

But the top of the wall from mesh will change?
And Peter's solution is a handful of time .

ArchiTerra has walls following the terrain.

Why is the solution I proposed "a handful of time" ?
I just did it on a mesh with 32 contours and 30 walls in about five minutes.

I have to be honest Djordje,
I do have the ArchiTerra and other Add-Ons, but as of last year decided if I can do with out Add-Ons by using AC tools with some work arounds or innovative methods I should do so. Add-Ons at time of a upgrade are usually a problem with delays in availability or bug.
some that I have that do not have an equal in AC are:
Objectives (which is the best)
ArchiStair
KeyNotes
Thanks,
