Converting NIF to OBJ in Blender 249.2 Yields Invisible Object

I am using Three.js to render Fallout 3 objects in WebGL. The JavaScript for a similar object rendering can be found here. Most objects, along with their normals, have been loading just fine... Until I tried to load the brahmin...

Yuck

So, as you can see, the texture and normals are imported into Blender just fine. But when I export the NIF file to a WaveFront OBJ file (coupled with a MTL file), it renders completely invisible. After purposely putting a typo in the MTL file for the JPG or DDS filepath, I found that it rendered as a white brahmin (no texture). Are there specific export settings that I am missing here (please note that I have exported these types of objects before)? Is there some significance behind the rendering being transparent? The files can be found here.

Note: there are no errors being thrown relating to textures not loading correctly.

Finally, for further reference, here is what it looks like when trying to export this misunderstood creature:

I appreciate your help, thank you.

In the .mtl file the value for d is 0 for all three materials. From the source code that parses the .mtl file:

// According to MTL format (http://paulbourke.net/dataformats/mtl/):
//   d is dissolve for current material
//   factor of 1.0 is fully opaque, a factor of 0 is fully dissolved (completely transparent)
