Do Human Bane Weapons affect half breed creatures like half-orcs or half-elves?
Nope. Each creature has a racial type and Bane (Human) weapons only affect creatures with the (Human) subtype, which half-elves and half-orcs do not have. Half-Elves have the (Elf) subtype and half-orcs have the (Orc) subtype, meaning that you need a Orc Bane or Elf Bane weapon to gain it's benifits against them.

If you are using the pathfinder beta rules the races have been changed so that they do.
Orc Blood: Half-orcs count as both humans and orcs
for any effect related to race.Elf Blood: Half-elves count as both elves and humans
for any effect related to race.
If you aren't running a beta playtest, and then like Nero said, in 3.5 half-elves were considered elves, and half-orcs were considered orcs.
Thank you everyone. I regret to say I caved in to my own impatience and posted this question a total of three times and had actually thought that this thread hadn't posted for whatever reason. I had posted the question and then figured the original post was so short that the website wouldn't allow it (because it hadn't popped up) so with only a few minutes left until I started game I posted the question twice more. >.< Anyway, sent a message to the moderators and hopefully these will be cleaned up.
