Model3DGroup group;
    
ModelVisual3D loadedModel = new ModelVisual3D();
var mi = new ModelImporter();

loadedModel.Content = group;

What i am trying to do is select the meshes inside the obj by name. Names are v_a, v_b,v_c,v_d

Looks like the Model3DGroup returned is a standard class:

Try getting the "collection" by calling Children() on the group, and you should be able to access the models as individual elements of the collection, eg:

group.Children().ElementAt(0) 
group.Children().ElementAt(1)

Or similar calls. You should be able to find some examples using Model3DGroup.
