Curved sloped roads

[Dilvish]

Does anyone have examples of SNOT roads that are both inclined vertically and curving horizontally? I can't for the life of me figure out how to create such a model. Thanks!

I'd suggest using hinge plates, clips, and/or technic elements to create a banked curve and wedge plates (studs on top) or roof tiles (SNOT) for the surface.

I can't really visualize what you are describing. Do you have a photo I could look at?

Yes, that's the visual style I'm going for. However, the example you posted doesn't turn as it rises. (And I'm not necessarily just talking about embankment.)

I did create a script to generate these types of roads in POV-Ray.

However, I don't know how to automatically generate the center dashed lines. And it's not at all a "legal" build as it does not use any official sub-parts but instead creates each triangle to form a mesh.
