CC3

CC3 is an acronym used in multiple, unrelated contexts, so its meaning depends on the field in which it appears. It does not correspond to a single, universally defined entity.

Notable uses include:

- Creative Commons version 3.0 licenses: In copyright licensing, CC 3.0 refers to the suite of Creative Commons licenses released as version 3.0. These licenses—such as CC BY 3.0 and CC BY-SA 3.0—offer standardized terms for sharing and remixing works with varying attribution and reuse permissions. The 3.0 family has been largely superseded by 4.0 licenses, but older works may still cite CC 3.0 terms.

- Character Creator 3 (CC3): A 3D character authoring tool developed by Reallusion. CC3 is used to create and customize digital avatars for games, film, and animation, often in conjunction with the company’s iClone platform. It provides features for morphing shapes, applying textures and outfits, and exporting character data for animation pipelines.

- Command & Conquer 3: Tiberian Wars (informal usage): In gaming communities, CC3 has occasionally been used as shorthand for Command & Conquer 3: Tiberian Wars. Officially, the game is titled C&C 3 or Command & Conquer 3; CC3 is not the formal designation but may appear in fan discussions.

Because CC3 covers diverse areas, readers should rely on surrounding context to determine the intended meaning. If you have a specific field in mind, providing that context will help identify the exact reference.
