Sorry, I think I might just be misunderstanding the whole thing, I'm still relatively new to Blender and 3D stuff in general so bear with me please. I'm not entirely sure how this automatic process is supposed to work, allow me to explain my understanding:
For me, the meta-rig is this thing (which I get through pressing shift+A)

http://i.imgur.com/cjZXW7H.pngThis last screenshot is also what I immediately got when importing the model with Finalize Rigify enabled. So to me it seems like the metarig is already being rigified anyway.
What I was hoping to do was to see and edit the rig like in the first screenshot upon importing the model, add bones etc. But I don't see where/when I'm supposed to do this in this process.
I'm also not seeing the 'Finalize Rigify' button on the mhx2 runtime panel though, so maybe something went wrong?
Thanks for taking the time to do this (and sorry for not getting it t_t)
