Is it possible to change the default map for the Multiplayer practice mode, so I can explore new maps without getting my butt shot to pieces?

To my knowledge, no. Though you can change the settings it has, such as time to play and starting funds.
To test maps by your self, just go to Multiplayer LAN and host a game (make sure NOT to choose dedicated server) and make it 1 player. After choosing your settings and clicking start you will be playing the map by your self.
Good Luck

Yes, you can change the multiplayer map in practice mode. You will fine it usefull to do this because it is hard to learn the map playing it online.
Since I am not at the computer I have the game on, I will try to explane this from memory.
In the folder c:\westwood\Renegade\data there is a file called something like skirmish.??? I don't remember what the extention is. This folder also has all of your installed maps in it. If you open the Skirmish file with a text editer there will be loads of info, most of it is self explanatory. YOu can change the lenght of the game, starting credits, etc.
This is where my memory is a little shaky. About half way down the file, you will find a line that says something like:
Map00=skirmish.mix
I don't remember what the part before the equals sign it, but it will have a 00 (zero zero) before. The Skirmish.mix file is Under with the AI. To change the map, just change skirmish.mix to C&C_Under.mix. This will load the Under map with out the AI. If you want any other map, just change it to C&C_City_Flying.mix, C&C_Mesa.mix or whatever map you want to play.
Another trick is to add lines to the file to cycle thorugh maps, so after the map00=Skirmish.mix, and the line map01=C&C_Walls_Flying.mix, then after you beat the computer on Under, it will automatically switch to the Walls Flying map. You can add as many maps as you want.
I hope this helps. Some on these boards helped me with this a long time ago, so I am just returning the favor!

Yes, I agree that it is a lot more difficult than multiplayer lan with one person, however people who have a 56k (like I used to have) cannot do the multiplayer lan. The game just says that it cannot find a lan.
Now I use mulitplayer lan to try out maps, but back in the day, multiplayer practice was all I had.

edit the svrcfg_skirmish.ini in the renegade data directory and add this entry:
MapName00=Skirmish00.mix
Add this : MapName01=Name of map.mix
(for example, MapName01=C&C_Glacier_Flying.mix What this would do would make the second map Glacier on the skirmish rotation, the first one must always be skirmish00.mix)
Also in this file you can edit multiple aspects of the skirmish mode too, like changing the starting amount of credits.
Hope this helps,
Grtz

There is a good reason to do practice then lan. If you can't use the internet you can't do LAN
