More than that I am looking for a way how I can create a hill or a valley in a plane following an exiting line

There is a very cheap commercial script for doing that part of a larger package

If you want more control you would need to do it manually

Is there an embedded option in 3ds max to do the first work without an script, it seems to be a pretty simple option.
