Do cheats disable achievements in Tomb Raider 3?

The original 1998 game has no achievement system. In Tomb Raider I-III Remastered, Stella's Tomb Raider Site warns that using cheats will disable many achievements and trophies, and it does not say which ones or for how long. Keep a separate save if you are chasing them. Stella's Tomb Raider Site: Tomb Raider Remastered Cheat Codes

Compatibility notes

Which releases these codes apply to, and where one behaves differently. Each note links to the source that documents it.

PS1 regions Stella's Tomb Raider Site does not label its PS1 codes by region. Critical Hits lists the all-weapons code as the PAL version, so the code may depend on your disc. Critical Hits: Tomb Raider III cheats, codes and unlockables
