Description
Summary
I am attempting to play Wolfenstein 3D with a Panasonic FZ-1 (U) Bios that is marked as a "perfect" choice by BizHawk. The game runs fine and the version of the game matches, but RA won't even resister me as playing it, let alone give me achievements. I'm logged in and RA works for any other games I try aside from 3DO ones. This is the only 3DO title I'm currently interested in, but I tried another just to test and it too didn't communicate with RA.
Host env.
BizHawk 2.11 running on Linux Mint 22.3 - Cinnamon.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in BizHawk 2.11 on Linux Mint 22.3 with a Panasonic FZ-1 (U) BIOS and Wolfenstein 3D, then compare RetroAchievements communication with a working non-3DO game. Done means a 3DO title registers as playing and can receive achievements.
