The following process is simple and you cannot believe it. Please refer:
Private Mesh mesh = null; // create a Mesh object
Private Material [] meshMaterials; // used to save materials
Private Texture [] meshTextures; // used to save the Texture
Private void LoadMesh (string file)
     {
ExtendedMaterial [] mtrl; // Saves the Mesh subset information and Material information
// Load our mesh
Mesh = Mesh. FromFile (file, MeshFlags. Managed, device, out mtrl );
// If we have any materials, store them
If (mtrl! = Null) & (mtrl. Length> 0 ))
         {
MeshMaterials = new Material [mtrl. Length];
