Normally, OS X should open the *.dmg without problems. I have no problems. Did you try to open the *.dmg with the standard OS X app? (i don't know the name ^^)

i can open the .dmg file but the file i extracted was not a .dmg file it did not have any file type or extension it was just Dolphin-mac-v3.0-769

When you download the .dmg archive DON'T OPEN it. Place the entire archive in Documents and then extract it.
If the archive "self-opens" after downloading it reach the global folder and then move it to Documents

i did not open the file prior to extracting it and i downloaded a fresh file before trying.

OK. Download the archive again. DON'T DO ANYTHING with it. Don't move it. Just show me the archive and where it's located
