too dark at night

I have encounterd a lot of ships at night lately, and although the lookouts pick them up I cannot see them at all unless within 500 meters and then just barely. Not enough to Id or get angle on the bow,etc, . I can barely see the bow wake and thats about all, even on a clear night with a full moon. On my other computer I was able to adjust brightness and contrast but on the one I am using now, I have both maxed out and still not much improvement. There must be some other adjustment to make, but How? I took some screen shots and brightened them up with a photo editor and all the detail was there, if I could only do it in the game. Any ideas? Thanks! Joe S
