It might just be your moitor brightness settings, then again it might not.
No matter what I did, I could not see a thing at night. It was pitch black, like the monitor was off!
Amazingly talented people here created light night mods, to help us with dark screens to see. But in my case, even that didn't help greatly. By this point, i'd given up with the night and usually just tc'd it.
Then I installed NYGM 2.2 and i could suddenly not only see my watch crew at 1am in the morning but also the sea we were sailing on and, best of all, i've even spotted a few ships on the horzon!
Dunno if it'll help in your case, but if you feel like it, give it a go!
