There is something wrong with "Auto smooth angle".
First pipe has 10°, second pipe has 100°, but output is alway the same in my test file.

Try it fix please ...

I see three different problems here:
1. Blender doesn't have "auto smooth" parameters for curves, so you can set it for meshes only. I will see if I could add it as Octane specific parameter, specially for curves...
2. You can't have different smooth angles for "Global" meshes. There is a thread next to yours: viewtopic.php?f=32&t=57118 where I've answered about this already.
3. Playing with your scenes I see there is a bug in a recent plugin version which sometimes yelds not correct smoothing results even for "Scatter" types. I will release a fix soon. Thank you for report.

Try to change the Resolution parameter. Starting from 4 the spline looks much better.

I've just released the 11.9 version with improvements in this regard. Must be OK there.

JimStar: Thanks, i will try

Saramary: My scene will be large, i dont want to increase resolution, if it is not necessary.
