Help with surfaced night attacks

Can anybody tell me some links for mods that make it less likely for enemy ships to spot me during a surfaced night attack? Please, links for mods that arent too high end for a windows vista laptop. Alternatively, any hints for editing AIX files so that enemy ships will be less likely to spot me at night will be greatly appreciated. Thankyou

Bump:

Night Sensitivity Factor=0.3

Would I increase this value or decrease this value to make my boat harder to spot at night?
