I do not have any expertise in this area, but I suspect that Jmol may be using true vanderWaals surfaces, whereas Chime and Rasmol are trying to duplicate the Pauling models. Since Pauling models are commonly used by chemists, I have taken to specifying Spacefill 65% to 70% in most of my models. Unfortunately, the dots surface cannot be adjusted in the same manner.

Certainly there is a need for a Connolly surface ...
Q: Is there really any need to have a vanderWaals surface?
Q: What type of surface(s) does Chime support?
