Question Using DKviewer From Banjo's Backpack

Okay, so I have both a .n64 and .z64 file extension of Donkey Kong 64 Roms. However, how do I correctly decompress the rom so DK viewer can read models, BSPs, ect.?
I am posting here because I was banned from BB because I was annoying Jombo23. And if I make another account, they'll just ban it again lol. Anyway, if any of you know how to do this, thanks.

weighta's utterly unabashed presentation and blunt attitude is starting to grow on me.

Okay? I don't know what it is with the advanced post you always try to fascinate me with but well, I'll explain more details when I can get on my computer tomorrow. Because no, I don't type like this very often or make paragraphs this cheesy. iPhones kind of suck when it comes to this :/.

Okay, time for a much better elaborative idea of what I have done.
So I got DK viewer, and it says I need a uncompressed version of the game.
I then got Sub Drags rom decompressor tool and selected the "Donkey Kong 64 (E) [!]" rom. When it extracted about 17,000 files, I had no idea which ones it was for the models or anything. But if any one can help me or tell me which ones it is, thanks. And yes, I tried looking at the offsets that Skill was on to view as an example and couldn't find them.

I've attached the last version of it, do not use the old file (GEDecompressorOld.exe).
Thanks, so I decompressed the "Donkey Kong 64 [!].z64" rom, and I can't seem to find Skill's offsets he is using as an example in the picture he posted. So hmm, maybe it's a different version or .n64 rom?

EDIT: Actually managed to view some of the models... Thanks!
